“Rojas and Associates, CPAs”

Robert R.
6/4/21

"I have engaged $170,000 in new clients from them in a little over six-months. These engagements include both audit and CFO clients which I would have never found on my own. This has been one of the best investments I've ever made bar none. Working with Al Chisolm has been a great experience."

“Several substantial leads.”

Kyle M.
11/15/20

"Significant" is the word I would use to describe the quality of leads we have received from GoodAccountants. Because we are located in a sparsely populated area, we needed to look beyond our limited geographical area in order to grow our practice. GoodAccountants has proved to be very effective as a source of leads willing to have remote engagements.

Steve Mack is a superstar and almost like a personality match guru for accountants and clients. We drilled down on the type of client I like to work with and that I was willing to wait for the right fit. Steve matched me with a local small business that I can truly say is awesome. GoodAccountants.com got me a $30,000 client per year. I love GoodAccountants.com, and I will continue to use the services forever. Thank you Steve!

Tip for consumers:
Dont expect overnight results, although I did get new prospects pretty fast.

I had called this service in order to find a book keeping and a accountant, I had set up 2 appointments for 2 separate days, both appointments didn't call me or make the set time for the appointment, I waited for 30 minutes for each appointment, what a waste of time! I wouldn't recommend this service to anyone.

Tip for consumers:
I wouldn’t use them they will waste your time

Products used:
I didn’t have the opportunity to buy there service due to them not making set appointments

I was struggling to find an auditor for a specific government required audit. I emailed GoodAccountants Friday afternoon; a few minutes later I got a call from Al who asked me some questions. On Monday afternoon I had 4 interviews lined up with different auditors. All good, different experiences and different price points. I could have saved a lot of time by starting with GoodAccountants instead of us looking for the auditor ourselves. Extremely satisfied with this service.

Our client was searching for an accounting firm in New York to engage for review services for a Non-Profit Organization. We contacted Good Accountants and discussed our needs with Al Chisolm. Al provided three recommendations in which conference calls were scheduled. We were impressed with all three recommendations and made a decision within a couple of days. We plan on using this service again in the future. Thanks, Al!

I wanted to take a moment to thank Stephen Mack and Al Chisolm for the opportunity and referral of a huge win for my accounting firm. I engaged GoodAccountants to help find me a larger client so that I could hire employees and build my accounting firm. They have delivered. I just closed on a client that will pay me approximately $150k annually. I am extremely grateful for Stephen and Al's direction and dedication in helping me secure this client. I look forward to using them again when I am ready for my next big client acquisition.

Reason I chose this business:

I had a positive experience with GoodAccountants back in 2018 when they helped me find a local business when I just started my business. I was ready for a large client acquisition and thought that GoodAccountants could help.

The they may be very good, but their tactics are less than professional in my opinion. Called me in the middle of tax season, Melissa Fernandez claimed to be a business consultant, and proceeded to waste my time telling me about client who is in dire need of an accountant right away. After 10 minutes, we finally got to the "pitch". If they had identified upfront that they were a membership organization, but had a legitimate potential client for us I would've been interested.

I needed an accountant so I went on my search for one, the simple thing is my search ended with goodaccountants.com. I’ve never had such a good experience with a company, the best professional business relationship I’ve ever had, I recommend this site to everyone.

Only days after contacting Good Accountants, we had an interview lined up, a proposal for our Board and an engagement letter signed. Work commenced the next week, and I am quite satisfied with the team that we have hired. As a small, not-for-profit, it was great to have Good Accountants facilitate this process given that we lacked internal resources to support a recruitment effort.

I worked with Al to land a large client. He found the right opportunity for us and we were able to run with it. Not having to cold call or run into constant dead ends helped me manage my work while still growing the company. I highly recommend Al at GA because he doesn't mess around and tells it like it is. Very happy I got to work with him.

Reason I chose this business:

Great returns on investment!

We were connected with several accountants who could help us straighten out our books and get the organization the documents we needed to secure additional funding. Good Accountants had a rapid turn around with reputable firms. I'm so glad we found them.

Reason I chose this business:

We need an accounting firm that was familiar with working for small newly formed non profit organizations to help us get our books in order to go after funding to grow the organization.

From start to end, we felt as though GoodAccountants geniunely cared about finding us a quality audit firm. We received responsive calls and emails to set up meeting with potential firms and near-instant follow-up after those meets to gather our impressions of the firm. At the end of the process, we found an amazing firm to work with us that is a perfect fit for our industry. I cannot recommend GoodAccountants highly enough.

Reason I chose this business:

We needed to reach a broad network of audit firms and we needed to do it quickly. Our situation was complex and we were looking for a firm to complete quality work on a fast timeline. We were hoping that the wide reach of GoodAccountants firms would garner us a quality firm... and it did!

Al Chisolm and Steve Mack at GoodAccountants have helped our firm land over $60,000 of new audit fees in the last few months. They continually put us in touch with potential clients who are looking for accounting and tax services. Our firm has never been great at marketing but by partnering with GoodAccountants we have more opportunities than we can handle.

Minor tech issues with site were fixed immediately.

Reason I chose this business:

We needed help with finding new clients.

Al reached out to me about 6 months prior to our engagement after I requested information about their services. He laid out their path to success very clearly and compared their cost to several other more common avenues for CPA firm growth. I took his plan and compared it to the ROI of other growth plans (purchase a firm, hire other headhunters, social media and website spend) and the GoodAccountants plan won on paper. After excessive due diligence on the reliability of GoodAccountants, I decided to give them a test run. And boy did they deliver. Al took some time to learn about my ideal client and then brought me 3 possible leads within several days. These are great clients operating great companies who need real help. Just the kind of people our firm wants to partner with. We quickly closed the first deal, and we are in the final stages with the next client.

Reason I chose this business:

1. Their cost is more reasonable than purchasing an existing book of clients knowing that 40% will not stay with the firm after the purchase.
2. Proven track record. The GoodAccountants team has a Rolodex of completed, successful, long-term matches. They are honest people who have proven they care about the client they are bringing to us, and they care about us as a growing firm.

The leads might not come over night, but sometimes, it's a perfect match. I received a lead for a one-time consulting gig to analyze a company's systems and processes and to recommend more modern workflow applications. That lead turned into a full time Interim CFO position. I now have a long term engagement as acting CFO, helping to implement the technology I recommended, and lead the team through change and into the future.

Reason I chose this business:

I chose Good Accountants because I wanted to grow my business and Good Accountant's billing guarantee means they keep working for me until I achieve what is promised!

I sent Rose a request for a bookkeeper and within a very short time she responded with two very qualified candidates. Both took the time to meet with me and discuss our needs. No matter which one we choose we will be in great hands for a long time.
Thanks Rose

It is a very good and exciting experience when we get a call from GoodAccountants with a good lead. They provided good information, answered our questions and screen the potential client. They set up the connection, set up the appointment. Made it easy for us to connect with this lead that was a great fit and $50,000+ in first year revenue for our firm. The bonus is we should be able to work with this client for years to come. Without GoodAccountants we would not have gotten the opportunity to bring tax, bookkeeping, and controller services for this entity set up to do a large public project.

Reason I chose this business:

We choose GoodAccountants because they take the time to learn and understand our strengths, services, and the type of clients we are looking for. They do a good job matching us with leads that are worth while and not throwing things at us that don't fit. They do there due diligence vetting both sides to bring together good fits which makes it efficient for us and our potential customer. We could spend a lot of time screening and vetting leads but GoodAccountants does that for us and it has been worth it.

Don't waste your time giving this company your information or even using their referral service. I use them and they sent me only one Accountant in the Las Vegas area! (Here in Vegas CPAs are dime a dozen). The accountant call me and I asked numerous questions and I found he wasn't fully screened by for a place of business, references, a business website, and other information a accountant should provide to clients, so I politely thank him for his call and hung up. Then I called Goodaccountants.com and told them about the only referral they sent me and ask them questions about how they screen these accountants and, I found out they also don't tell you how or even if screen these accountants! Also their customer service department is very unprofessional. Not a professional CPA/Accountant referral service!

Steve Mack was awesome and I appreciated his friendly and professional approach throughout the process.

First off let me say that GoodAccountants.com (GA) is not a magic bullet. It is however a good way to steadily grow your client base. In my case, I initially paid the $5K marketing fee and ended up landing 3 significant clients.

I still had to put in real work on my end to close these deals. The leads that GA send your way are at the very least truly looking for an accounting professional... some leads are obviously hotter than others.

I recently upgraded to their $25K marketing program and am confident that I will see a return on my investment. The key here in my opinion is patience. One only has to do a search for accounting terms in Google to see their ads everywhere so it is clearly evident that they have a strong market presence.

Again, this type of marketing is not for every accountant... if you are not willing to put in the time and effort on your end to close the deal then this is not for you.

Cheers!

Each of the accounting firms with which I was put in contact were highly qualified to conduct the work required and they were able to educate me about what was necessary.

Reason I chose this business:

I had not used GoodAccountants before, but I hoped it would lead to finding accounting firms qualified to undertake U.S. Government audits. GoodAccountants exceeded my expectations!
