Dear Hannah, At the MSCPA,
we’re always investigating opportunities to help you succeed, and make it easier for you to do business. One resource that several Massachusetts
firms are using is the AICPA’s Private Companies Practice Section (PCPS). PCPS is the AICPA’s home for firms and offers many practice
management tools to support CPA firms in their daily operations. For more information on resources available to Massachusetts firms, check out this article from Jeff Solomon, CPA, CVA,
the managing shareholder for Katz, Nannis + Solomon PC, Waltham, and a past chairman of the MSCPA Board of Directors.
I was recently contacted about an exclusive event for PCPS firms
in Massachusetts. PCPS will host a meet-and-greet on Wednesday, September 21 at XV Beacon Wine Cellar in Boston. This is a great opportunity for PCPS
members to learn about the latest tools and resources designed to help firms run at peak performance. The deadline to register is Wednesday, September
7. Click here to RSVP and to learn more.
All firm leaders are invited to take a closer look at PCPS resources at
the MSCPA’s New England Practice Management Conference in November. We’ll examine the results of the PCPS/CPA Top Issues
Survey, discuss the top five issues faced by firms of all sizes – and identify solutions you can implement immediately. You won’t want to
miss this! Click here to learn more and register today.
It’s hard to believe that summer has come to an
end, but I’m looking forward to connecting with you at our fall events! Have a wonderful Labor Day weekend!
