Discuss your business and business problems with the CPA.
Identify characteristics that you find important.
Are you comfortable with the person?
Ask about rates.
The difference between a CPA, a bookkeeper, an enrolled agent and a tax attorney is in the education and licensing requirements of each.
Good Accounting = Tax Deductions = Lower Taxes
