About CPA Business Coach

Our Why

We believe most accountants could be earning a much higher effective hourly rate.

We think the best way to get there is to begin offering business advisory services to business-owner clients.

Business advisory services are higher-value, higher-priced services. We believe accountants have the experience and competence to provide these services.

We developed our training specifically for accountants to provide you with the tools—the specific knowledge and confidence—you need to get to work for your clients.

CPA Business Coach offers an affordable, best-in-class training program that helps you become the business advisor your clients need.

What we believe

At CPA Business Coach, we believe accountants:

• Provide a critical service to business owners and are vital to the running of a successful business.
• Are NOT earning the effective hourly rate that they are worth.
• Rely too heavily on compliance work for the bulk of their income.
• Are working too many hours for too little money.
• Are NOT providing as much value as they are capable of doing.
• Are at risk of losing their main source of income (compliance work) if a major tax reform bill is ever passed by Congress, and maybe more realistically… by artificial intelligence and other technological advancements.
• Are NOT doing enough (or any!) business advisory services.
