Navigating the Unexpected Closure of Bench: GP CPA, P.C. Is Here to Help
Estimated Reading Time: 4 minutes 45 seconds
In contrast to Bench, (RIP?), GP CPA, P.C. is a Certified Public Accounting firm located in the Southeastern United States. We are second generation CPAs and business advisors. We can take over for wherever it is that Bench left off and with us, you won’t experience a data hostage situation with our firm. With nearly three decades of experience–serving the small business community since 1996–we’re here to help Bench users transition smoothly and confidently to a trusted business advisor.
Why Choose GP CPA, P.C.?
First off, we use commercially available accounting software, so there are no data hostage situations like the catastrophe created by Bench. While “custom” is a great concept, it often creates more problems than it solves for accounting purposes. We offer a full suite of services, including:
- Business operation services: From bookkeeping to payroll and sales tax processing, we provide accurate and timely business support services so you can focus on running your business
- Tax Planning and Preparation: Ensure compliance and minimize tax liabilities with our proactive and tailored approach.
- Core Accounting Advisory Services: From financial statement preparation to cash flow management, we help you make informed business decisions.

How to Transition from Bench
If you were using Bench, you may be wondering what’s next for your accounting and bookkeeping needs. At GP CPA, P.C., we’ve helped many businesses migrate from one platform to another, ensuring a relatively smooth transition.
While Bench may have your financial data, there are still options available to either recreate the reports (worst case) or continue on where they left off. The best part about working with GP CPA, is that we can onboard most businesses in a short amount of time (sometimes in one day!) and there is no commitment and we offer full transparency every step of the way.

Beyond Balanced Books: Why Client Experience Is The Bottom Line at GP CPA
Ask most accounting firms what keeps the lights on and you’ll hear “accurate numbers.” Important—absolutely. But, at GP CPA we’ve learned something simple and powerful since opening our doors back in 1996: numbers don’t refer themselves, people do. That “people” part is the client experience, and nurturing it is every bit as mission-critical as reconciling a bank feed.

Tax Projections vs. Tax Planning: Why Knowing the Difference Matters
At GP CPA, we help business owners make informed financial decisions year-round—not just during “certain times” of the year.. One common point of confusion we encounter is the difference between tax projections and tax planning. While these two services are closely related, they serve distinct purposes and deliver very different outcomes.
