The Democratized CPA firm adds the practice of Gary Wantulok, based in Worland, Wyoming to their Platform CPA Firm
WORLAND, Wyo., Sept. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Dark Horse CPAs, a top accounting and tax firm serving small businesses and individuals across the nation, announces the addition of Gary Wantulok, CPA to the profession's only democratized CPA firm. Mr. Wantulok brings with him over a decade of experience providing tax and accounting services to small businesses, entrepreneurs and high net worth individuals. With the addition of Gary's practice, Dark Horse CPAs begins actively serving the Wyoming market.
The deal adds deeper expertise in tax and accounting services for cattle farming and ranching, as well as cost accounting and lean manufacturing accounting in the beverage industry. For Gary and his team, joining Dark Horse will provide more robust resources in the areas of technology, staffing, firm administration, marketing, branding and access to subject matter expertise in a host of practice areas to further improve their client service and scale their practice to new heights.
Speaking to the reasoning for moving his practice to Dark Horse, Gary remarked, "I was a partner in a CPA firm that was splitting up. As I began the process of forming my own firm, the name Dark Horse kept coming to mind as it had substantial personal significance to me. During my service in the Marine Corps, 'dark horse' was the call sign for the 3rd Battalion 5th Marines during Operation Phantom Fury in Fallujah. I was at first disappointed to discover that the name was already in use until I started to look further into the firm. I soon realized this would be a much better home for my team members and clients than building a firm from scratch."
As to why the pre-existing Dark Horse felt like a better fit than the one he would create, Gary stated, "I was struck by their collaborative approach and the support they offer not just myself as the practice runner but professionals at all levels of the organization. As I met more people at the firm, I was also struck by the unique culture they had built around a mission to empower accountants and how that brought people together around a common purpose of supporting each other and serving clients. Ultimately, I found that their core values closely aligned with what I had envisioned for my own practice which made the decision that much easier."
"From our very first conversation, it was clear that Gary and I shared the same values and vision for the profession," says Justin Kurn, Chief Revenue Officer of Dark Horse CPAs. "He was attracted to a more progressive and innovative approach to running his practice and we knew that we had the right operating system for him and his team to make significant strides in that direction. As a firm, we were attracted to the opportunity to expand further into the Midwest market and add expertise to our accounting and tax services for the farming industry. Plus, his passion for fly fishing give me the perfect excuse to visit more often. Ordinary and necessary? I think so."
