Your Tech Stack Isn’t the Problem — The Experience Is (2026 Reality Check)
The Growth Minded Accountant
In 2026, most tax and accounting firms don’t have a software problem.
They have an experience problem.
In this solo episode of The Growth Minded Accountant, Lee Reams II explains why stacking “good tools” has quietly become the biggest source of friction inside modern firms—and why AI-first firms are already pulling away.
You’ll hear why:
- Most firms only use 20–30% of the software they pay for
- Training doesn’t compound—it resets
- Clients aren’t difficult—they’re overwhelmed
- Staff has become the invisible integration layer
- Traditional software is becoming the bottleneck
- AI-first thinking simplifies everything clients touch
This episode isn’t about replacing your tax software or chasing the latest tool.
It’s about rethinking the experience your clients and staff live inside every day—and asking what no longer needs to exist in 2026.
If your firm only works because you know how to navigate the mess, that’s not scale.
That’s risk.
🎧 The Growth Minded Accountant explores what it really takes to build a modern, scalable firm—covering AI, client experience, growth strategy, and the systems that separate firms pulling ahead from those stuck maintaining complexity.
