My practice is a growing practice. I'm looking to grow beyond where I am at now. I definitely want to see more growth and income.
Until now, I've brought on clients from time to time who are not the best fit. I've fired my fair share of clients over the last two years I've been working for myself.
This week, I've lost two clients. One whom I posted on here decided they want to work with someone who is "aggressive" with a low S Corp Salary and another with a client who told me this afternoon that they will not be utilizing my services for 2022. The second one was a rather strange experience and I'm probably better off without the client anyways.
From what I can see between posts on here and from people calling me, there is a greater demand for CPA/Tax, etc. services than there is a supply of competent, quality tax preparers. Although I have gotten some kick back with my pricing, I've had a good amount of new additions in the last 12 months. I'm not sure if my pricing is too low (I feel that I'm in pair with most CPAs in the area) or if I just need to do a better job vetting clients (its probably a combination of both)
Any help in these areas would be greatly appreciated. I know that no one will ever retain 100% of their clients, but I want to do a better job focusing on bringing on longer-lasting clients.
