“The words ‘outsourcing’ and ‘offshoring,' I think everyone’s burnt out by those, right? I want to make sure you’re using a good provider that has the right infrastructure in place … the right model that aligns with your vision.” Laurence Whittam | LinkedIn

"Instead of .COM we're .CPA, which is restricted to the CPA profession. You have to be a licensed CPA or CPA firm in order to register a .CPA domain."
