Randy Crabtree welcomes Nick Boscia, The Balanced CPA, to Episode 221 of The Unique CPA. Perhaps unsurprisingly considering that moniker, Nick, like Randy, is a big advocate of maintaining balance in your work and personal life, and they focus their discussion on using modernization and technology to improve that balance. Nick joined his father’s CPA firm after several years at the Big Four and while he felt very out of control at first, he was able to put major efficiency gainers into place to the point where the firm has both grown to seven employees and he is able to take ten vacations a year. Setting boundaries and both physical and mental health have played a key role in Nick’s professional success, and he talks about how firm owners can make that happen, while also being intentional about ensuring employees understand they are the first priority—even (and especially) above the firm’s clients.
