What CPAs Should Know About Their Business Clients' Needs

Two articles from AccountingToday.com and the AICPA which is the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the national organization…each state has CPA member board) talks about how business clients are requesting lower fees because they feel CPA services are not equal to the fees. The second article was critical of CPAs saying that they would “love to be left alone with their spreadsheets, calculators, pencils and erasers” (these are AICPA’s words, not mine). Now, I’m not a CPA. I can’t tell you much taxes other than my own personal and business situation. But what I can tell you is that my line of work/past work experience is with speaking with business owners. And business owners around the US and probably Canada, but especially here in California has a major concern. And their concerns is not so much about preparing their financial statements and keeping up with state and federal payments for operating their businesses. California business owners are more concerned with their companies’ financial and operational health. Please click HERE to visit us on the Internet.
