Josif Makarovski | Your US Operations Partner in Macedonia

The Founder & The Mission

I founded ESAP Solutions to solve a specific problem: Good accounting firms are hitting a wall. You want to scale, but hiring a local senior accountant costs $75k+, and generic outsourcing feels risky.

My role is to bridge that gap. I am not an accountant; I am your Operations Partner. I use my dual presence in Northwest Indiana and North Macedonia to build you a dedicated team that works on US time, follows US standards, but costs 60% less.

Our Mission

I believe you shouldn't have to choose between profitability and quality.

My mission is to handle the "operational headache" recruiting, office management, and legal compliance, so you can focus entirely on client strategy.

Our Mindset

Why The Hybrid Model Wins The math is simple, but the execution is hard. A skilled professional in Crown Point costs $75,000+. A similarly skilled professional in Skopje costs a fraction of that.

The challenge isn't the talent; it's the trust. That is where I come in. Because I am a US citizen with a physical presence in Indiana, I give you the security of a local partner. Because I operate in Skopje, I give you the financial advantage of a global workforce.

Josif Makarovski | Managing Partner

I am a resident of Crown Point, Indiana, with deep roots in North Macedonia.

I bring a unique "boots on the ground" perspective to your firm. I understand the fast-paced expectations of American business because I live there. I understand the Macedonian talent landscape because I operate there.

I am not just a vendor; I am your operational co-pilot. I ensure that when you send work to Europe, it is handled with the professionalism and urgency you expect in the States.

Cultural Corner

Espresso & Emails: A Tale of Two Styles

Living between Crown Point and Skopje, I get to see the best of two very different worlds.

In the US: It’s about the Hustle. We are direct, fast, and results-oriented. We value time above almost everything else. If a meeting can be an email, we prefer the email.

In Macedonia: It’s about Connection. Business here happens over coffee, not just conference calls. People value who they work with as much as what they do.

The Mix: I love bringing these two together. I bring the Indiana work ethic to the office operations, but I keep the Macedonian warmth in the team culture. It creates a vibe where deadlines are met, but people actually enjoy working together.
