During my career in public accounting, I have worked one-on-one with many individual and business clients and not-for-profit organizations, and by keeping my practice a sole proprietorship, I am able to provide a wide range of professional services with a personal touch that is hard to find these days.
While many of my clients are local residents, others are located in surrounding towns and counties and some even reside out of state. However, with the increasing use of the internet to provide services and the ability to send documents and files electronically, distance is not a significant factor any more when choosing your CPA. The factors that really matter are superior service, absolute trustworthiness and personal attention to every client.
