FIND A PROFESSIONAL
Most owners do not need a different accountant so much as one who understands tip credits, sales tax on catering and how COGS should be booked. Same for the attorney reading your lease and the broker quoting your liquor liability. Search by specialty, state and language.
HOW VETTING WORKS
A directory is only worth anything if you can tell why someone is in it. Here is exactly how each listing earns its place.
A verified badge means an admin confirmed the license or bar number against the issuing state board — not that the person told us they had one. The check and its date appear on every listing.
Some vendors pay to appear. Those listings carry a "paid listing" badge and a plain-English disclosure. Money never changes the order results appear in, and nothing is recommended because it was paid for.
The recommendation count is other IROA owners who have actually worked with that person. It is not a star rating, and it cannot be bought.
THE DIRECTORY
Filter to what you need. Introductions are made through IROA so you are never cold-calling a stranger.
