The Mission

Maximizing your after-tax wealth should be the goal of every finance professional you interact with. 

Retail tax preparation shops and compliance-focused CPAs can all claim to be accountants, but do they take a proactive approach in developing a strategy for tax minimization, coordinate with your team to implement those strategies, or help you understand the "why" behind those strategies?  In my experience, the answer is usually "no".

​

Austin Malone, CPA PLLC is a Central Arkansas CPA firm serving clients nationwide.  I got into accounting because I love working with entrepreneurs and small business owners.  My deepest tax experience is in construction, real estate, hospitality, e-commerce, and estate planning.

​

If you're looking for a long-term relationship with a professional who can grow with you through all the stages of your financial development, I'd love to speak with you.

​

I strive to offer the same level of service as the national CPA firms to smaller businesses while maintaining a personal relationship with each client.  Here are just some of the ways I try to make that happen:

1. Customer Delight, Guaranteed: if you aren't satisfied with the service you receive, you pay what you think is fair.

2. Upfront Pricing: I price the work upfront, rather than billing by the hour. You'll get engagement terms that make what you're paying for very clear.

3. Built-in Communication: every client is offered an "unlimited access" package that lets you ask questions without fear of a surprise bill. 

4. Security: All clients get access to our best-in-class client portal with bank-level encryption. Clients can use this portal to exchange documents, send messages, and sign tax returns.
