If you added bookkeeping instead of accounting do you think that would attract less business or give you business for people that look at accountants as "too expensive".
After finishing the course we are titled as PB (professional bookkeeper) so should we even advertise the word accounting or accounting services?
Thanks for all input!

| TRINA: CHECK WITH YOUR STATE ACCOUNTANCY BOARD. SOME STATES WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO USE THE WORD ACCOUNTING OR ACCOUNTANT UNLESS YOU ARE A CPA |

| Thanks....I will. I heard that you can use accounting in your business name as long as you mention youre a "non" CPA firm. |

Trina,
I do have a small practice in Texas. Here for example you can not use the words accounting, accountant or accounting services if you are not a CPA. You can't even introduce yourself as an accountant without a CPA.
I know it sound extreme but that's the law here.
