Buy a CPA Moms Franchise

CPA Moms is a virtual accounting and tax franchise built specifically for licensed CPAs who are mothers. The brand connects its franchisee practices with small-business owners who need bookkeeping, tax preparation, and financial advisory work delivered remotely, while giving the CPA owner control over her own schedule and client base.

The model is fully virtual and home-based, with no office or physical premises required. Each franchisee runs an independent CPA practice under the CPA Moms brand and system, serving clients nationwide rather than within a fixed local territory. Owners must hold an active CPA license; the franchise provides the brand, technology, leads, and operating framework around that professional qualification.

Founded by CPA and entrepreneur Mayumi Young, CPA Moms positions itself as the only CPA-focused franchise among the thousands of franchise systems operating in the US. The franchise was developed with franchise consultant Rick Grossmann of Franchise HUB. It remains an emerging, mission-driven system focused on women-led practices and work-life balance, with franchises granted across a small number of US states.

Why buy a CPA Moms Franchise?

Buying a CPA Moms franchise offers licensed CPAs a structured way to run an independent practice without building the brand, technology, and lead flow from scratch. The system supplies qualified leads, custom practice-management technology built for accountants, and a year of weekly training, which sets it apart from franchises that hand over a manual and step back.

The virtual, home-based model keeps overhead low: there is no lease, no buildout, and no requirement to hire staff before launch, though franchisees can post jobs to expand their teams as they grow. Demand for bookkeeping, tax preparation, and advisory work is recurring and largely non-discretionary, and the brand’s niche as the only CPA-specific franchise gives it a distinct position in a category otherwise served by independent firms.

CPA Moms – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Onboarding centers on 50 hours of classroom training followed by a full year of weekly training and real-world, on-the-job support, well beyond the one-day-to-one-week norm in most franchises. Franchisees receive custom practice-management technology built by accountants, qualified lead generation, unlimited CPE, the ability to post jobs to build a remote team, and an invitation to the annual conference in San Diego. Resale buyers should confirm with CPA Moms what initial training, technology access, and lead flow transfer to an incoming owner when a practice changes hands.

  2. Ideal Owner

    The model fits an active, licensed CPA, typically a working mother, who wants to run her own practice on a flexible, remote schedule. Owners should be comfortable managing client relationships directly, working virtually, and using technology, and willing to follow a structured system rather than build one alone. Comfort with business development matters even though leads are supplied, and owners who want to scale should be ready to recruit and manage a remote team. An active CPA license is required to own a franchise.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Founder and CEO Mayumi Young was named to the Top 50 Women in Accounting in 2023, recognition tied to her work building a national virtual CPA franchise and advancing women in accounting leadership. CPA Moms is also notable as the only CPA-specific franchise among the thousands of franchise systems in the US, a distinction it leans on in industry coverage. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the reputation of the specific practice, including client reviews, referral sources, and the outgoing owner's standing with clients.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US accounting services market was worth about $154.9 billion in 2025 (IBISWorld), with steady low-single-digit growth as small businesses outsource bookkeeping, tax, and advisory work. Rising tax-code complexity and the shift toward remote and hybrid service delivery support demand for virtual CPA practices. Tax and compliance work is recurring and largely non-discretionary, which lends resilience across economic cycles, though tax-season seasonality shapes the revenue calendar. For resale buyers, the strength of a specific practice depends on its client mix and how much revenue recurs beyond filing season.
