FAQs

  • Do you handle multi-location and franchise reporting?

    Yes—especially if growth is the goal. A little upfront guidance can prevent costly mistakes later on, like choosing the wrong structure or misclassifying a contractor.


  • Can you integrate my POS, payroll, and inventory tools?

    Absolutely. Most entrepreneurs start out solo. Having CPA help means you don’t have to figure out everything yourself or wait until tax season to panic.


  • Will you coordinate with my attorney, lender, and franchisor?

    Nope. Whether it’s an online store, consulting, content creation, or something totally unique, the fundamentals are the same: structure, cash flow, compliance, and clarity.

  • How often should restaurant owners review financials with a CPA?

    Monthly for full financials, weekly prime cost and cash updates, quarterly tax planning and forecasts.
