After one of the most horrendous tax seasons ever, a record number of accountants are retiring or just quitting and finding a new career path due to a lack of passion for the job. To add insult to injury, artificial intelligence (AI) continues to create competition that threatens to put tax pros out of business as more and more taxpayers file their own taxes online. Emotions are running high and tax professionals are simply burnt out—just visit the Tax Preparer Stress Relief Facebook Group if you don’t believe us. So, if this sounds all too familiar to you, it’s time to make a change with the tax resolution business opportunity.

Step 4: Have the Confidence to Charge Correctly
As a tax resolution specialist, you can easily charge anywhere from $500-$10,000 and up, depending on the case and your confidence level. At first, you might feel apprehensive about charging full price for your services, especially if you’re accustomed to filing tax returns for $200. But remember, tax resolution changes your clients’ lives. Tax resolution is far more valuable to your clients, and in turn, much more profitable for you.
“The reality is that you are always helping that client more than they can help themselves.” – Drew Foster, Co-Founder, IRS Solutions
There is also tremendous value in being a “local” provider. Your community would much rather turn to a well-known, trustworthy, local provider as opposed to an overpriced firm advertising their suspicious services on late night TV. With the right tools and the right support system, you’ll be confident in your abilities, and much more comfortable charging correctly for services in your community.
