As part of the research that went into the Palm Beach County CPA Market Opportunity Report, I looked at the digital presence of a lot of similar accounting practices in the county, including quite a few accounting firms in West Palm Beach.
With each of the 35 attributes analyzed in the report, we put ourselves in the shoes of a complete stranger, who knew nothing about any of these firms. And we looked at what each kind of buyer persona stakeholder would most likely evaluate in terms of shortlisting or selecting an accounting firm to work with.
While I hesitate to say this list is the be-all, end-all of West Palm Beach-based accounting firms, here are 22 firms whose websites are at least worth a visit:
