Rachel and Marcus recap their recent RECHARGE conference, an in-person event for accounting firm owners that fostered deep discussions on KPIs, firm valuations, and incentivizing team performance. They highlight key takeaways including how current M&A deals are structured, the importance of optimizing Google Business Profiles, and practical automation tools that attendees implemented within days. The hosts emphasize the value of prioritizing one or two meaningful improvements rather than attempting everything at once, reflecting on how the collective wisdom of the community continues to shape growth for everyone involved.
