Solutions for CPA Firms to Help Grow Your Tax Business


Offer Your Own Tax Courses for Cpe Credit


Tax Season Challenges and Problems

CPA firms, on average, realize more than 40% of their revenue from tax preparation services provided primarily from mid-February through mid-April. This extreme 3-month demand presents challenges for the firm’s tax partner(s) and/or tax specialist(s). They simply do not have enough hours in the day to get all the extra tax work done. A logical solution would be to hire extra qualified help. But there is just not an abundant supply of qualified tax professionals who are available for 2-3 months to meet the crunch. Filing extensions may seem like an option, but doing so is a disservice to clients who have provided everything needed to complete their tax returns. Most taxpayers are due a refund and want their money ASAP. Those who owe additional taxes must still pay by the filing deadline, which requires the preparation of an estimated tax return.
