Everybody loves the acquisition
Very few people love the integration
That’s where the value gets built
Accounting firm multiples have moved fast in recent years
Because buyers see future advisory margin, future growth, and the chance to build platforms in a fragmented industry

Most accounting firms are still small. Roughly 80% sit at $1M in revenue or below

Quanto helps accounting firms grow with smoother onboarding and stronger operations
