A CPA Firm Built for Tampa Bay Businesses

You get tax, accounting, and financial leadership under one roof with Fusion CPA, a Tampa CPA firm. That means no stitching together a tax preparer, a bookkeeper, and a CFO from three different providers. Florida charges no state income tax. That’s one reason founders and high earners keep relocating to Tampa Bay from California, New York, and New Jersey. We help you keep that advantage: structuring your entity correctly, staying compliant across every state where you earn income, and building a proactive tax plan instead of a rushed April filing.

We serve businesses across Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco counties. That spans South Tampa and Westshore professional practices, Water Street startups, and Wesley Chapel service companies. Every engagement runs on a fixed monthly subscription, so you always know your cost up front, with no surprise invoices.

Tax Preparation and Strategy

Tampa business owners often overpay because they file their return once a year, with no planning behind it. At Fusion, we work the other way: your CPA builds a year-round tax strategy first, then files a return built around it. Entity structure, owner compensation, retirement and equity planning, and multi-state exposure all get reviewed before the deadline, not after. Because so many of our Tampa clients moved here from higher-tax states, we spend real time on residency, apportionment, and the multi-state tax filings that keep Florida’s zero income tax advantage intact.

Here’s what that year-round strategy covers, on both the personal and business side:

Personal Tax

  • Individual return preparation and filing, extensions, and quarterly estimates, starting at $155 per month
  • Tax projections and strategy calls for equity compensation, K-1 income, and multi-state situations
  • IRS notice support and year-round access to your CPA, not just at filing time

Business Tax

  • S corporation, C corporation, partnership, and single-member LLC returns, starting at $289 per month
  • K-1 preparation, multi-state compliance, and quarterly estimated payments
  • Entity structuring and owner compensation planning built around how your Tampa business actually operates

Outsourced CFO & Advisory

For S corporations, C corporations, partnerships, and single-member LLCs across Georgia.

A full-time CFO in Tampa will cost a business between $200,000 to $400,000 a year in salary and benefits. Fusion CPA’s outsourced CFO services gives you that financial leadership at a fraction of the cost. Every engagement includes:

  • Financial forecasting, budgeting, and cash-flow planning
  • Board and investor reporting, plus fundraising and capital planning support
  • EOS and Traction integration, KPI dashboards, and family business advisory

If you’re a Tampa startup coming out of Embarc Collective or Tampa Bay Wave, this kind of support fits you well. It turns clean financials into real decisions, whether you’re raising capital or planning for the next generation of a family business.

Fusion CPA Outsourced CFO engagements start at $3,000 per month.

QuickBooks Bookkeeping & Controller Services

Clean books are the foundation for every tax and cash decision you make. Messy books cost Tampa owners real money at year end. We run your bookkeeping on QuickBooks or Xero and close the month on a schedule. Then we deliver financial statements you can actually use. As you grow, the same team adds controller-level oversight. Your books stay accurate, with reporting depth that would otherwise take a full accounting department. This service fits most Tampa small and midsize businesses, from Hyde Park practices to Carrollwood contractors, across three tiers:

  • Foundation (starting at $399 per month): bookkeeping, bank and card reconciliation, monthly close, and financial reporting for owner-operated Tampa businesses
  • Scaling (starting at $665 per month): higher transaction volume, accounts payable and receivable management, and deeper monthly reporting as your team grows
  • Established (starting at $1,365 per month): controller oversight, multi-entity support, and review-level accuracy for established Tampa Bay companies.

NetSuite Bookkeeping & Controller Services

If your Tampa company is outgrowing QuickBooks, usually around $5 million to $10 million in revenue, NetSuite becomes the right platform. It’s also the right move once you need multiple subsidiaries, multiple currencies, or serious inventory tracking. We’re a certified NetSuite partner, so we run your bookkeeping, controller services, custom reporting, and multi-subsidiary consolidation directly inside NetSuite. That support breaks into three tiers:

  • Startup Essentials (starting at $2,500 per month): NetSuite bookkeeping, reconciliation, and monthly close for companies moving onto the platform
  • Growth Strategy (starting at $5,000 per month): controller oversight, custom reporting, and process design for scaling operations
  • Enterprise (starting at $10,000 per month): multi-subsidiary consolidation, advanced reporting, and full controller function for complex Tampa Bay enterprises

We see this most with Water Street and Channelside tech companies, private-equity-backed firms, and multi-location operators once they’ve outgrown QuickBooks.

Why Tampa Businesses Choose Fusion CPA

Tampa has plenty of CPA firms. What sets Fusion apart is a licensed CPA reviewing your numbers year-round, not just once a year at filing time. You also get the technology depth growing companies need, plus credentials most local shops can’t match:

  • Georgia Society of CPAs (GSCPA) member
  • AICPA member
  • QuickBooks ProAdvisor certified
  • NetSuite certified partner
  • 5.0-star Google rating and more than 2,000 businesses supported

Local businesses choose us for three reasons. We’re one team for tax, books, and CFO work, instead of three separate vendors. Every engagement runs on one fixed monthly price, with no surprise invoices. And we understand the multi-state reality of a Tampa built on relocating founders.

We work with Tampa Bay technology and AI startups, plus healthcare and MSO groups tied to Tampa General, Moffitt, and USF Health. The same team also supports law firms, real estate operators, ecommerce brands, staffing companies, private equity portfolios, and family businesses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tampa CPA Services - Frequently Asked Questions

No. Florida has no personal state income tax, which is a major advantage for Tampa business owners and high earners. There’s a catch: if you or your business earn income in other states, those states can still tax it. We handle the multi-state filings and residency planning that protect your Florida tax advantage.

Fusion CPA works on fixed monthly subscriptions instead of hourly billing. Personal tax starts at $155 per month and business tax at $289 per month. QuickBooks bookkeeping starts at $399 per month, and outsourced CFO service starts at $3,000 per month. Bundling tax, bookkeeping, and advisory saves 10% to 15%. You get a personalized quote on a free Discovery Call.

Those are tools, not strategy. QuickBooks records what already happened, and TurboTax files a return after the year ends. A CPA plans ahead and catches deductions the software will not flag. You also get help structuring your entity properly, plus year-round advice. Many Tampa owners keep QuickBooks and let us run it and the strategy on top.

Usually around $5 million to $10 million in revenue. Sooner if you need multiple subsidiaries, multiple currencies, or advanced inventory. As a certified NetSuite partner, we manage the platform and the migration. We also own the controller function, so the switch strengthens your reporting instead of disrupting it.

Yes. Multi-state work is one of our core strengths. It matters here because so many Tampa Bay owners relocated from California, New York, and New Jersey, or still run operations there. We handle apportionment, nexus, residency, and the filings in every state you owe. That’s how Florida’s zero income tax actually works in your favor.

Our Tampa office is at 5000 Culbreath Key Way, Suite 9-323, Tampa, FL 33611, near Westshore and South Tampa. You can reach the team at 404-955-7338 or info@fusiontaxes.com. We serve clients across Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco counties in person and remotely.
