Tom shares key questions to ask when hiring a CPA to ensure you get the proactive, comprehensive advice your business needs to thrive.

Elevating Businesses to Achieve The Business Owner’s Dream Exit
The unfortunate reality is that for every business that comes on the market (for whatever reason), only 17% of them achieve a successful exit. You read that right. 83% of attempted business transitions never reach the closing table. Mastery Partners is on a mission to change that.
