    In this episode, I show you how to describe your firm by saying who you help and how you make them more money. I share a bunch of real examples, explain why leading with “we do bookkeeping and taxes” turns you into a commodity, and walk through how messaging helps you attract better clients.

    In this episode, I break down what “workflow” really means for accounting firms going into 2026 and why it’s so hard to pin down. I cover two practical ways to improve workflow right now by standardizing how work is tracked and using better tools, then zoom out to the real causes of workflow pain like too many client types, too many services, and inconsistent delivery. I also explain why workflow issues are often capacity issues and why specialization is usually the fastest path to simpler operations.

    In this episode, I break down how to stop 1099 season from wrecking your busy season. I walk through the systems and expectations that matter more than the tech, why “same as last year” is the real enemy, and how to force a clear yes or no from clients every single year. I also share the three-tier 1099 framework we used to make this work profitable, how to push the right work back to clients, and the best tools firms are actually using to handle 1099s at scale.
