If you're preparing your accounting practice for a high-value exit—or even thinking about it in the next few years—there’s one toolset you can’t afford to ignore: your API data.

At Ablaze Collective, we believe the secret to unlocking premium buyer interest is already inside your own systems. And now, we’re pulling back the curtain with a free weekly webinar designed to show you exactly how to extract, analyze, and present that data to command a stronger sale.

💡 Why API Intelligence is the M&A Advantage

Your QBO (QuickBooks Online) and Xero APIs hold far more than transactional records—they contain rich, often-overlooked metrics that directly influence your firm’s valuation. From client engagement and retention trends to service line profitability and recurring revenue stability, this data tells a story that savvy buyers want to hear.

Led by Jessica Kentch, founding partner of Ablaze Collective, our weekly session shares the real strategies used by firms that caught the attention of top-tier acquirers.

Fact: Every CPA firm that used Ablaze Collective’s beta-stage API tools was acquired by a Big 4 firm within 18 months.

📘 Weekly Topics Include:

🔍 API-Driven Valuation Strategies

Discover the powerful, often hidden metrics within your QBO and Xero APIs. Learn how to frame your firm’s performance in the language buyers speak.

📊 Building Custom Metrics Buyers Love

Generic KPIs don’t cut it anymore. We’ll show you how to build custom dashboards that highlight your strongest narratives—using data that already lives in your firm’s accounting platforms.

🔐 Using API Transparency to Build Buyer Trust

M&A deals live or die on trust. Learn how to showcase data cleanliness, client base stability, and predictable revenue growth with transparency that builds immediate buyer confidence.

⚡ Streamlining the Sale Process with Live Data

Avoid back-and-forth spreadsheets and painful due diligence cycles. We’ll show you how real-time data access accelerates timelines and removes friction from your exit.
