AuditClub has created a new alliance model designed to connect tax and non-attest accountants with AuditClub One assurance professionals to improve service delivery options to clients.
In the midst of an unprecedented talent shortage gripping the profession, AuditClub VP and Senior Chief Auditor Brian Yujuico, says private companies are struggling to find a trusted auditor, often turning to tax or non-attest accounting firms for guidance. But such firms who do not hold a CPA license cannot currently offer assurance or other attest services.
"AuditClub Ally solves for this constraint by leveraging an AuditClub One partner firm that can be called upon to provide such services to these clients,” Yujuico says.
Introduced in early 2023, AuditClub One was designed to address the growing challenges faced by the CPA pipeline problem. AuditClub One offers CPAs an entirely new career path, enabling them to leverage their credentials more swiftly than in a traditional large firm and to enjoy the rewards of entrepreneurship without the risks and complexities of starting from scratch.
CPAs who join benefit from a highly autonomous ability to build client relationships and manage delivery of assurance services, with a proven playbook and a path to achieve their own personal and professional goals in a faster and more fulfilling way.
Wyatt Kneaper, CEO of Lighthouse Accounting Group, LLC, says that not only is this a great opportunity to support the AuditClub mission, but it also is a strategic and defensive business position for our firm. "As an AuditClub Ally, Lighthouse enjoys an expanded network. I can confidently recommend our AuditClub One partner, who can provide assurance services to existing and potential clients. As a result, Lighthouse has become a one-stop shop for all accounting related services.”
AuditClub provides a robust infrastructure to its assisted entrepreneurs with cutting-edge technology and tools, complemented by a team of seasoned chief auditors and skilled crew. This comprehensive support system ensures that every AuditClub One member provides exceptional service and delivers solutions that meet the highest-quality professional standards for private companies.
In turn, both the AuditClub One practitioner and AuditClub Ally have rewarding opportunities, including the ability to benefit charitable causes focused on education and income generation.
By joining forces with Lighthouse Accounting Group and other AuditClub Ally partners, AuditClub strengthens its commitment to advancing the accounting and auditing profession. Together, they aim to create a more vibrant and interconnected community that empowers both non-CPAs and CPAs to team together and create a more seamless and unified approach to accounting and assurance services.
