Wondering if Down to 40 Hours CPA Mastermind is right for you?

It might be, if you're a single-owner or partner CPA who wants to work fewer hours without losing revenue.

In this short episode, I answer:

✋ Who is it for? (Is it for me?)

✋ How does it work?

✋ What's the time commitment?

✋ What if I'm going on vacation?

✋ Is there a payment plan?

✋ What happens if I make the wrong decision?

✋ Is there a guarantee?

✋ When does it start/end?

✋ How big is the group?

✋ What’s up with renewing?

Down to 40 Hours CPA Mastermind is the only program of its kind designed specifically for CPAs who want to stop working insane hours, fix their pricing problems, figure out their niche, disengage non-fitting clients, and get their website to work for them so they can have the freedom, time, and revenue they want.

If you have questions about whether Down to 40 Hours is right for you, shoot me an email: [email protected]

Many CPAs see the value in niching but find it difficult to get started. Sheila Hansen, CPA went from having a wide variety of clients to having a clear, narrow niche with clients whose challenges are consistent. Doing so has helped her standardize and systematize, save time, and increase prices by a factor of five.
