Case Study: CPA on Fire scales its practice with Bench

How One Accountant is Scaling His Practice Through Automation and Outsourcing

CPA on Fire, led by accountant Josh Bauerle, serves entrepreneurs and online businesses with tax prep, planning, and entity setup. As client demand grew, the firm struggled to build a reliable in-house bookkeeping function and wanted a way to offer bookkeeping without adding more staff. They turned to Bench and its Bench for Accountants offering to help round out their service stack.

By outsourcing bookkeeping, payroll, and sales tax to Bench, CPA on Fire created a bundled “total accounting” package for clients while focusing its own team on tax work and advisory services. Bench gave Bauerle’s firm a simpler year-end process, since clients with Bench bookkeeping don’t need to gather records for tax season, and it helped CPA on Fire scale and bring on more clients without hiring additional in-house resources.
