Dear Hannah,
The Society is always looking for opportunities to help our members succeed. One of the ways we do that is by increasing your exposure to potential clients. Our Find a CPA Directory is a popular search engine for individuals and businesses looking for a CPA firm in Massachusetts. There were over 8,000 visits to the Directory in the last year, and the MSCPA actively promotes the Directory through advertisements targeting the general public and Massachusetts businesses throughout the year.
Sign up today and grow your client list before busy season! Firms that join the Directory will be listed through December 31, 2020, and those in our Firm Sponsored Membership Program receive an additional 10% off. To place a new listing, or if you have any questions about the Directory, please reach out to Amanda Curtis at acurtis@mscpaonline.org or 617.303.2424. If your firm is already listed in the Directory, click here to renew your listing.
As always, we welcome your ideas for other ways we can help you succeed and grow in the profession. Please feel free to reach out to me at apitter@mscpaonline.org to share your thoughts and feedback.
Have a great weekend!
Amy Pitter
MSCPA President/CEO
