Business Description
Great Client Management, Business Development, and Operations
The owner of a growing accounting business founded in 1987 in Colorado is exploring the transition of her firm to a new owner(s). She will retire and focus on personal projects. It is expected that the owner and 11 team members will remain with the firm to ensure a successful transition.
The business will achieve revenues of $1.910 million in 2022 (projected based on 6 months of data), an 11% increase over the 2021 figure of $1.721 million. The revenue breakdown is:
* 45% from recurring compliance services to 315 clients;
* 46% derived from tax services (1,617 returns completed as of June 2022, 1076 returns on extension and 165 returns in progress); and
* 9% from ad hoc advisory services.
In 2021, the 8 fee earners averaged $215,195 of revenue produced.
Good systems and processes in client management, business development, and operations mean the business is not dependent on any one individual.
