Before you call
A few things worth knowing, so nobody’s time is wasted:We’re built for owners who want an ongoing financial partner. Not just someone to categorize transactions or clean up the books once a year. Most of our clients generate $200,000+ in annual revenue. At that stage, the financials usually become complex enough that better accounting and guidance can create meaningful value.
Stronghold handles the books and proactive tax planning. We coordinate the year-end handoff with an integrated tax preparer so the books, planning, and return preparation stay connected.If your books are behind, that is normal and it is the most common reason people call.
Pricing is flat-rate monthly, not hourly.See pricing.
If you need a Fractional CFO, we work with a partner.Controller-level work we do. See controller services.

Alex M. Riccio, CPAFounder & CEO
Clean books aren't the product. The decisions they let you make are.
Alex is a Florida-licensed CPA and QuickBooks Online Certified ProAdvisor with experience at PwC, the federal government, and EY. He founded Stronghold to bring Big Four, tax, audit, and small-business accounting experience back to owner-operated businesses.
We work remotely with clients across the US. The two Florida offices are where we are, not a limit on who we work with.
If you only see your numbers at tax time, you're making decisions blind. Let's fix that.
