Why So Many Accountants Are Broke by December, Even the Good Ones - With Tony Proctor

Why are so many firm owners flat broke in Q4, even after six-figure tax seasons?

Tony Proctor’s been running a firm for 20 years, and he’s seen it all: tax pros who bleed cash every December, clients who push for fraud, and practitioners who won’t raise prices because they’re scared to lose “friend” clients.

In this episode:

• Why Proctor fired a paying client (and what it cost him)
• What he really thinks about Profit First (it’s not what you expect)
• The cash flow trap that keeps firms broke after tax season
• How to stop being the “best-kept secret” in your city
• The biggest marketing lie most accountants still believe

If you’ve ever said, “We make good money but I don’t know where it all goes,” this one’s a must-listen.
