I genuinely enjoy bringing order to the chaos. Whether your books need to be caught up, cleaned up, or maintained each month, I love helping business owners regain confidence in their numbers. There's something incredibly rewarding about transforming messy bookkeeping into accurate financial records that provide clarity and peace of mind.
​
My goal is simple: to take bookkeeping off your plate so you can focus on running and growing your business. Instead of spending your evenings and weekends trying to balance your books, you can spend that time serving your customers, pursuing new opportunities, and enjoying life outside of work.
​
When I'm not working, I'm spending time with my family. I was born and raised in North Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, and my husband and I moved to Illinois in 1992. We've been fortunate to call this community home ever since, where we've raised our four amazing children and share our home with our two lovable dogs.
​
Our family stays busy with school activities and youth sports. Band, soccer, and baseball are a big part of our lives, and you'll often find me cheering from the sidelines. Over the years, I've also had the privilege of leading fundraising efforts for the Prairie Grove band program, helping support opportunities for students to learn, perform, and succeed.
​
As a business owner, spouse, and mom, I understand how quickly life fills up with responsibilities. I know how valuable your time is because I live it every day. That's why I'm passionate about helping fellow business owners take bookkeeping off their plates, giving them more time to focus on their business, their families, and the things they enjoy most.
​
I believe your evenings and weekends should be spent making memories—not balancing your books. If I can help make that possible, then I've done my job.
Meet Lori
Hi! I'm Lori Dillon, owner of Dillon Bookkeeping Solutions. Based in Crystal Lake, Illinois, I proudly help business owners throughout Crystal Lake and the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago simplify their bookkeeping and gain confidence in their financials.
​
For more than 30 years, I've worked in corporate accounting within the manufacturing and fulfillment industry. Throughout my career, I've seen firsthand the challenges business owners face. They have the passion, determination, and expertise to build successful businesses, but accounting often gets pushed aside while they focus on serving customers, managing employees, and growing their companies.
​
When that happens, financial records can quickly become outdated, disorganized, or overwhelming. Before long, it becomes difficult to know where the business truly stands or whether it's as profitable as it should be.
​
That's where I come in.
