The Challenge

A solo CPA with 100+ clients faced serious growth limitations:

  • No Time for Client Growth: The CPA was doing everything from bookkeeping to client follow-ups.
  • Missed Deadlines: Without help, client tax filings were pushed back.
  • No Budget for Full-Time Staff: Hiring locally was too costly.

Our Solution

We became the CPA’s remote accounting assistant:

Bookkeeping Execution

  • Took over all monthly reconciliations, classifications, and categorization.
  • Cleaned historical files and set up recurring workflows.

Tax Prep Support

  • Helped organize and review client documents via shared portals.
  • Created working papers and summaries for faster CPA review.

The Results

After just six months of working with us, the business experienced tangible improvements:

Metric Before After
Time Spent on Bookkeeping 25–30 hrs/week Less than 4 hrs/week
Client Response Times Often Delayed 48-hour turnaround
Filing Deadlines Frequently Missed 100% On-Time

Key Takeaways

  • Outsourcing empowers solo CPAs to scale without overhead.
  • Delegating non-core work restores work-life balance.
  • A remote team can deliver as effectively as local staff.

Client Testimonial

This felt like cloning myself. I finally have the freedom to take on more clients.
