There’s Been A Dramatic Shift

72% of Business Owners Left Their CPA
THE STATS DO NOT LIE
Studies show that clients are looking for enhanced services beyond simple booking and filing taxes. They are looking for consultants and advisors who can help them navigate through the tax code to find opportunities where they can save money and reduce their taxes; playing only what they own and now a penny more. Business owners are leaving their current professionals because They Only Receive "Reactive Services".
In this shifting landscape, firms that will thrive in the future will learn how to use this trend to their advantage, rather than struggle against it.
- Reduce the risk of losing clients by being more proactive
- Expand the "brain-trust" by working with some of the country’s best specialists
- Increase organic growth by giving clients a story worth sharing with family and friends
- Provide more value and increase client satisfaction
- Reduce the risks that come from referring clients to third parties

Are you a successful business owner and totally frustrated by the amount of taxes you pay every year?
The truth is, the world is full of accountants who do little more than record history, putting the “right” numbers in the “right” boxes on the “right” forms by the “right” deadlines to keep you out of trouble. But then they call it a day.
