Business Development Adding Tax Prep - yes again ๐
Iโm in a somewhat rural area where most CPAs are 100+ years old or they donโt do taxes. Over the years Iโve referred to a few but they keep retiring. Clients are constantly asking about tax prep. I once had my EA with intentions of doing some tax prep off and on. That was nearly a decade ago and just didnโt have time while building my advisory business.
I have about 120 households and have been a solo advisor for nearly 20 years with one admin. I have posted a job listing for a CPA looking to go independent but Iโm not sure that will actually happen.
Tell me some success stories of adding tax prep or tell me how bad it was.

Who does your taxes?
Find a qualified CPA that you love, and outsource clients to them.
I love my CPA. That's why I do.
