Prepare to open the accounting firm.
Before beginning anything else, you may want to consider finding a firm to purchase from another accountant. This will be easier than starting your own firm from the ground up. Consider finding a partner who has experience with accounting jobs. Remember though, sharing expenses also means sharing profit. Working with another accountant will also reduce local competition. Consider the funds you'll need to start the accounting firm and research methods of acquiring those funds.
Build the accounting firm.
Do some market research to find out how you can separate yourself from the competition. If the area indicates saturation in the market, you may want to consider opening the business in another location with higher demand. Write your business plans, making sure to include marketing plans and financial plans as a means of helping to secure the necessary capital.
Get Funding and Equipment.
You'll need to get the funding so you can purchase any equipment you need, in addition to any licensing and permits your specific location requires. Remember to consider local, state, and federal requirements. Make sure you have enough capital to run the business for six months without receiving any capital from customers to ensure you have some time to get the ball rolling. Consider marketing and overhead costs.
Staff the firm.
Hire qualified applicants for any accounting jobs or clerk jobs you want to fill. Consider using temporary firms to help fill your needs until you are more familiar with the requirements of your firm based on the consumer demand and workload.
Start marketing and advertising.
Once you have everything you need to operate the firm, you'll need consumers so that you are able to pay the people who filled the accounting jobs for you. There are many different ways to do this to generate sales.
Hire legal support.
Due to the nature of the business, you'll always want legal support in case a client comes back to you with a legal issue. Legal support will protect your business and employees.
Once these steps have been taken, the accounting firm is ready to go. The marketing and promotion of the accounting firm will never stop and you may find you'll have more clerk jobs to fill as the business grows.
