How Firmspace Houston Helps Pierre Accounting Boost Its Credibility With High-Net-Worth Clients
Professional athletes. World-famous entertainers. C-suite executives.
When you’re an accountant working with these types of high-profile clients, you have to show them you’re more than up to the task. That means not only handling their financial information discreetly and securely, but also projecting a polished, professional image that conveys credibility and inspires confidence.
Thanks to his previous experience with Firmspace, Eric Pierre already knew what an asset a great office setting could be in both of these regards. So when he decided to ramp up the operations of Pierre Accounting in Houston in 2024, he knew exactly what he was looking for.
The Challenge: Leveling Up For a Discerning Clientele
Eric’s business was going great in 2022. Over the previous seven years, he had built a roster of high-profile and high-net-worth clients in several locations, including Los Angeles, San Diego, and Austin, where he sought out the prime amenities and ideal location of Firmspace Austin.
It turned out to be a great fit. The athletes, actors, and private equity investors who came in to discuss their financial strategies found a space that was as private and professional as they expected for such sensitive work.
By 2024, business was also booming in Houston. Eric was looking to make a lifestyle change to return to his hometown. Now, he was looking for a comparable setting – a central location, desirable amenities, and top-notch security – to get the job done in Houston.
The Solution: A Place to Impress at Firmspace Houston
Based on his exceptional experience in Austin, Eric didn’t hesitate to check out the setup at Firmspace Houston. And just as he expected, it was precisely what he and his clients needed.
Specifically, he was and continues to be impressed by:
The high standard of privacy. Compared to the coworking spaces he had previously worked in, Firmspace was leagues ahead in terms of privacy and quiet. “The conference rooms and the privacy of the offices are second to none,” Eric said. “There’s a telehealth company next to me and a couple of lawyers, and I’ve never heard anybody in their offices when I’m in mine. It’s such a quiet, private place to do business.”
The top-notch security. Especially considering the kind of sensitive financial information he handles, Eric doesn’t like surprise visitors at the office. In a coworking space he had utilized prior, he recalls people just wandering in and knocking on his door. Not anymore – from the secure floor to the concierge-style front desk, Firmspace takes visitor security seriously.
Another security benefit? When Eric needs to print documents, such as financial statements or tax returns, the portal at Firmspace provides him with complete control, ensuring that documents are only released in his presence. That means sensitive client information isn’t just lying around in a common area. While that may seem like a basic feature, he knows of peers who have had docs or data stolen in coworking spaces.
“Knowing how secure this space is really means a lot to me.”
The unparalleled location. Like other Firmspace locations he’s worked in, Eric says Firmspace Houston has an attractive address that helps him align with his high-end clientele. Nestled in the famed Galleria area, Firmspace Houston offers a high-profile neighborhood that its clients like to visit, full of restaurants that are perfect for a power lunch or a fancy dinner. “That gives me credibility when people search for my address and see the area I’m in.”
Privacy, security, and prestige. Three things that help Pierre Accounting impress its clients. Three things that Eric found at Firmspace Houston.
The Result: A Space That Fits His Business Goals
Eric knows what his clients expect. Given their resources and the circles they run in, elevated professionalism from their accountant is not a nicety – it’s a necessity. Firmspace helps Pierre Accounting deliver on those expectations.
He also knows what he expects from Firmspace. Thanks to his pro-working experience in Austin, he walked into Firmspace Houston anticipating something above and beyond a coworking space. He expected a pro-working haven. And he hasn’t been disappointed.
Firmspace surrounds him with the kind of fellow professionals and polished setting that sends a clear message to his high-net-worth clients and prospects: This is where you belong.
