Paid Research Interview — Tax Preparers & Staff Accountants at Small CPA Firms

I'm researching how work actually gets done inside small accounting and CPA firms (bookkeeping, monthly accounting, tax). You're a fit if you work (or recently worked) at a US accounting or CPA firm doing bookkeeping, monthly accounting, or tax — any role that touches the work: bookkeeper, tax preparer, staff/senior accountant, manager. We'll talk about: • Your workflow start to finish — what clients send, what you do with it, who reviews it • Where the time actually goes and the most painful parts • What your software solves vs. what's still manual • How the firm runs — team size, billing, client mix TO APPLY: Start your proposal with the main software you use (QBO, Lacerte, UltraTax, Drake, Xero, etc.), then your role + firm headcount, and one sentence on the most time-consuming part of your job.
