No matter what the size of your business it’s important to you, and as an astute business person you are adamant that you want to run it properly. As the owner of a business you end up wearing many hats and have to become involved in all aspects of your company. Even if you have a few employee’ it is a necessity for you yourself to stay on top of things and this of course includes the financial stability of your business. As a result of this you know you need a good accountant but the question is do you choose a Toronto Chartered Accountant or should it a Toronto Accounting firm?
When you have to rely on professionals as part of your support team for your business, and it’s in an area that you don’t feel comfortable with, it’s difficult to make a decision as to which of these specific professionals would be right for you. This is often the case when a new business is trying to decide on an accountant for their Toronto business.
Often the tendency is to think that if one goes with a big established firm that is well known then they are getting the best there is. This is not always the case. Often big accounting firms have become recognized based on the mass amount of marketing they have completed for them. Then another fallacy is to assume that you automatically need a Toronto accounting firm that also has a tax lawyer. So what you end up paying for is a lot of overhead and a lot of specialized services that you probably will never need to use.
As mentioned earlier you are probably the type of person that likes to stay on top of things and that’s one real advantage you have with using a Toronto Chartered Accountant who has built a solid reputation. In most cases these accountants take a more extensive interest in their clients and are willing to take the time to ensure that the business owner really understands where he stands financially. These types of accountants will take the time to explain the financials in terms that can be understood.
Many companies find that when they are dealing with just one reputable accountant that they can build a much better business relationship with this professional, whereas when dealing with a large firm they tend to get lost with the numerous people they end up having to deal with.
As a Toronto Chartered Accountant I have made the choice to remain small and professionally personal when it comes to the accounting needs of my clients. I believe by doing this it has played a huge part in building the impeccable reputation that I have as a professional in this industry, serving small to medium sized businesses in the Toronto area.
