Ryan Myers, CPA, CFE, CGMA
Assurance Partner specializing in Manufacturing and Distribution
Who I work with
I’m passionate about helping clients grow their businesses. My clients include CFOs, CEOs, controllers, commercial real estate entities, and owners of manufacturing and distribution companies — from pre-revenue startups to companies with revenues of over $500 million. My goal is always to provide my clients with a great customer experience. As such, my clients trust me to help deliver on their compliance requirements while also identifying ways to help them improve, grow and add value to their business.
My specialty
In addition to being a manufacturing and distribution CPA, I’m a financial reporting advisor and business growth partner. I collaborate with Aprio’s specialty teams to increase manufacturers’ bottom-line results by identifying available tax credits and opportunities for operational improvements that create efficiencies. I provide audit and financial reporting to help clients maximize the outcomes of growth initiatives, including new debt agreements, equity transactions, and new agreements with vendors and customers.
Results I have delivered
Through evaluation of a client’s pricing structure, I was able to adjust labor rates to properly cover costs and increase their profit by more than $1 million.
Unique things about me
My wife and I love to travel to Europe and have visited the United Kingdom at least five times.
When I am not at work
I enjoy spending time with my family relaxing, bowling and trying new restaurants in Nashville. When able, I enjoy attending live sporting events and playing golf. I’m a big fan of the LSU Tigers, Tennessee Titans and Nashville Predators.
People say I am
Genuine, grounded and fun
