What the evidence shows
Pricing
73% of the firms on this page say nothing about what they charge. 2 of 11 show a price or a starting price, and 1 say they quote. Figures the firms publish themselves, as their sites word them: LIFTED BOOKKEEPING ("starting at $75") and Patrick Accounting ("package starts at $750 per month"). Across Tennessee, the share publishing a price is 10%, so this group is ahead of its state. A written scope with the fee and its limits is the thing to ask for on a first call.
Licenses and public records
There's no Tennessee open data for us to match licenses or registrations against, which is why so few firms here reach 70% coverage. A website on its own can't get a firm there. Median evidence coverage here is 69%. Any firm that says it's a CPA practice can be checked on the Tennessee State Board of Accountancy lookup.
