The Global Standard in Business Advisory Growth for CPA Firms
For more than three decades, the Center for Enlightened Business has set the benchmark for transforming accounting firms into high-growth, high-impact advisory practices. We’ve guided over 11,000 CPAs, from solo practitioners to national platforms, generating billions in new advisory revenue and reshaping how accountants serve their clients.
We’re not theorizing about growth—we’ve built it, proven it, and scaled it for firms of every size.

Global Leaders in Scalable Business Advisory Solutions
With over $3.2B in proven revenue impact, our founders have set the worldwide standard for CPA advisory excellence. For more than three decades, we’ve delivered breakthrough frameworks, tools, and execution systems that firms trust to unlock high-value, high-margin advisory revenue at scale.
The world's first structured, scalable CPA firm optimization system for accountants, laying the foundation for what would become a global movement of CPA Value.
Endorsed by more than 30 CPA State Societies, this immersive experience transformed how thousands of CPAs thought about their role, helping them escape the compliance trap.
We built advisory tools and platforms that enabled CPAs to diagnose client needs, communicate insights, and seamlessly present premium advisory solutions long before "advisory tech" was a concept.
Through "Sell Without Selling," we trained thousands of accountants across 17 countries and supported leading firms like McGladrey, ADP, Chase, Citi, Paychex, and H&R Block.
Our Unlimited Profitable Engagements Program gave CPAs a proven system to win premium-priced advisory engagements, with firms routinely reporting hundreds of thousands in new recurring revenue within weeks.
After 200,000+ hours in the trenches, we've distilled everything into a turnkey advisory growth solution. We not only design the strategy but build it, run it, and monetize it with and for you.
