Solve the mystery.

There are many unknowns in the world, and the impact that advisory services have on business success is one of them we can solve.

In order to get there, we need data. We have never had an opportunity to measure the impact. Until now, the accounting profession has been unempowered with the knowledge they need to understand and charge fairly for their own advisory value.

Avalara, the Center for Accounting Transformation, and CPA Trendlines have come together together as advocates for the profession, because we believe that accountants deserve to know what their impact is on the success of their business clients. And, businesses deserve to have advisors who understand what they want and need.

We realize that by collecting significant quantities of data through a 10 minute survey, together we will make great strides to revealing the impact of the work accountants do.
