Summary
Firm as a Service (FaaS) is a model that gives accountants the entire infrastructure of a firm technology, staffing, marketing, and support so they can focus on serving clients and scaling their practice. Unlike traditional partnerships or franchises, FaaS lets accountants retain ownership of their client base while benefiting from shared systems and resources. In a recent Gro wing Your Firm podcast, David Cristello, Founder of Jetpack Workflow , spoke with Chase Birky , CEO of Dark Horse , about how this approach is reshaping firm ownership.
