By practice type

Recurring-revenue bookkeeping practices, frequently cloud-based on QBO or Xero with monthly engagements.
Enrolled Agent practices focused on tax preparation and representation before the IRS.

Client accounting and advisory practices delivering outsourced accounting, monthly close, reporting, and advisory on recurring engagements.
