CPA MOMS® is a turnkey, virtual accounting & tax franchise.
We Believe Women Can Have a Successful Career and Raise a Happy Family!
We are the only CPA franchise in over 4,000 franchises nationwide.
CPA MOMS is a franchise system for professional working moms who are licensed CPAs that want to start their own accounting & tax practice while raising a family.
Many professional women have sacrificed their careers and/or families in an industry that has failed to meet the needs of professional working mothers despite the industry growing to over 60% female. Often forced to choose between a high pressure career and their family, those same women rarely achieve leadership and partnership levels.
We believe that women shouldn't have to choose! We have made it our mission to empower family-oriented CPAs with confidence, relevant skills, and a proven system to better meet the needs of entrepreneurs in an evolving world. We do this by providing an ecosystem of community support, real world training, and comprehensive, enterprise level resources to achieve their ideal version of work-life harmony and a financially successful practice.

Watch the video below to learn why Rick believes the CPA MOMS Franchise is unlike any other.
What is included in the franchise?
The franchise webinar will go into detail about exactly what is included and the pricing. Included in most franchises is a proven system and model to follow, training, community, use of the brand and support. We offer much more than the typical franchise. For example:
1. Each franchise chooses how much support it will offer its franchisees. We are an extremely comprehensive franchise model offering a year of training where most franchises offer 1 day to 1 week of training.
2. We offer a turnkey franchise, which includes lead generation for our franchisees, where most franchisors do not offer leads.
3. We have custom built technology (created by accountants for accountants). Most franchises do not offer technology.
4. We have real world applied learning and ongoing “on-the-job” training, where most franchisors provide only a help desk after the initial training.
5. We have a recognizable brand and leverage that brand to create national partnerships.
And more…
What is a franchise?
A franchise is a business model that enables us to build CPA practices that allow the CPA to retain ownership of the practice. Franchising is regulated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and has uniform standards for the franchise industry similar to the standards established for the accounting industry by the State Boards of Accountancy and FASB. There is a 3 legged stool test to determine if a business must register itself as a franchise. The FTC considers anyone who offers, sells or distributes goods, commodities or services to be involved in the sale of a franchise if they: 1. have a trademark, name or other commercial symbol the recipient will use; 2. provide significant assistance to the recipient in their method of operation; and 3. charge a fee for their services. The most common structures for accounting firms is the standard professional corporation (PC) where a firm hires their professionals as employees and do not share ownership with their employees. Though we have been organized this way in the past, this model didn’t align with out commitment to support mompreneurs. The next most common is the Partnership model (best represented by the Big 4 accounting firms). Though we considered becoming a partnership, we determined that it wasn’t aligned with our overall vision for the future. The International Franchise Association (IFA) definition is: franchise (or franchising) is a method of distributing products or services involving a franchisor, who establishes the brand’s trademark or trade name and a business system, and a franchisee, who pays a royalty and often an initial fee for the right to do business under the franchisor’s name and system.
Are there financing options?
Yes. We have several 3rd party financing options for those of you who need support with the initial franchise fee. Please ask our Franchise Specialist for our referral list.
What if my license is inactive, expired, retired or in process?
At this time, we are only accepting applications from active licensed CPAs. For anyone serious, there are ways to qualify. You are welcome to first learn more about the franchise opportunity to determine if it makes sense to take the steps necessary to complete the CPE required to reactivate or reinstate your expired license, partner with a licensed CPA if you are unlicensed, or complete your licensing requirements. For those who have never been licensed and need to complete experience hours under a licensed CPA, owning a franchise would not meet those experience qualifications. Instead, we recommend that you find virtual work through the Placement group first to find a position working for a franchisee or another firm until you have your hours completed.
Can men become a CPA MOMS franchise owner?
Yes, if the firm represents at least 50% of the brand by partnering with or hiring a CPA that is a mom, AND honors the brand values and family centered culture.
Can I still maintain my job while running a franchise?
Yes. That being said, it may not be the best plan for everyone. We understand that every individual situation is unique. There are some instances where we might encourage you maintain your current employment during the initial stages of launching your franchise. In other cases, this may not be the best approach. Book a conversation with a Franchise Specialist who can work with you to determine the best plan forward.
