🧐 Learn how to identify scammers who impersonate the government.

Scammers can be convincing when they impersonate government agencies like the IRS by using fake names or spoofing caller IDs. An email, call or message could be a scam if it:

~Is unexpected
~Rushes or threatens you
~Offers refunds, credits, or deductions
~Pressures for personal or financial information
~Tells you to pay now "or else"

➡️ Takeaway: If you receive an email, call, or text message from someone claiming to be from a government agency, PAUSE. Visit the IRS website for information on scammers or give us a call.

Look to your CPA as a trusted advisor | Could this story be yours?

“I thought CPA firms were only for big businesses.” Sound familiar?

A few years ago, we started our HVAC company from home. Since then, it has grown beyond anything we imagined with four trucks on the road today and plans to add more next year. In the early days, I handled everything myself: bookkeeping, payroll, QuickBooks, and taxes. But as the business grew, it became clear I was spending too much time managing finances, making growth harder than it needed to be.

At first, I assumed we just needed a bookkeeper. What we really needed was a CPA. We needed guidance on tax strategy, forecasting, cash flow, and smarter planning for the future. That partnership changed everything. Instead of reacting to problems, we started planning for growth with confidence.

Many successful small businesses aren’t built alone; they’re built with the right financial team behind them.

The costliest mistake many business owners make?

Waiting too long to bring in professional financial help.

We’re often asked: How do I know when it’s time to hire a CPA?

The truth is, every business is different—but there are clear signs that it may be time to partner with Lesemann CPAs.

Here are four of the biggest:

➡ Your business is growing quickly
Growth is exciting, but it can also expose weak systems fast. If revenue, payroll, hiring, or day-to-day operations are expanding, you need financial processes that can keep up. We help businesses build the structure needed for sustainable growth.

➡ Your finances are becoming more complex
More transactions, multiple revenue streams, inventory, new employees, tax obligations can add up quickly. We help organize your financial picture, improve reporting, and keep you compliant. We can also identify risks such as internal fraud or costly inefficiencies.

➡ You have specialized financial needs
Whether it’s government contracting, industry-specific regulations, or international business activity, some situations require deeper expertise. We help clients navigate those challenges with confidence.

➡ You’re spending too much time on finances
You didn’t start your business to stress over bookkeeping, payroll, taxes, and reports. If finances are pulling you away from growth, leadership, and serving customers, it may be time to outsource to experts.

The right CPA relationship is more than tax filing. It’s about clarity. Strategy. Compliance. Better decisions. Stronger growth.

At Lesemann CPAs, we help businesses create order, reduce risk, and position themselves for long-term success.

If you’re already a client, thank you for trusting us.

If you’re ready for a stronger financial foundation, let’s talk.

I thought CPA firms were only for big businesses!

✅ A few years ago, we started our HVAC company from the comfort of our home, and to say it’s grown beyond our wildest dreams would be an understatement. Today, we have a fleet of four trucks on the road, with plans to add two more next year—a milestone we’re incredibly proud of.

✅ In the beginning, I took on everything, including the books. Between navigating QuickBooks, wrestling with an online payroll system, and tackling year-end taxes, let’s just say I was in way over my head. When tax season rolled around, it became clear that our growing business needed professional help.

✅ At first, I thought hiring a bookkeeper would solve all our problems. Boy, was I wrong! What we really needed was so much more than just bookkeeping. We needed a CPA—a true expert—to guide us through financial planning, forecasting, and tax strategies that matched the scale of our ambitions.

✅ Partnering with a CPA transformed how we approach our business finances. Now, instead of struggling to keep up, we’re planning ahead and making informed decisions to keep our growth on track.
