I am passionate about practice owners offering a profitable and efficient Tax Planning Services to their SME clients

March. I used to love this time of the year in my practice – it was when all the fun and magic used to take place. It’s a time to wrap up the last of the tax returns and a time to look ahead and plan. I hear you say “we still have until 15 May, 5 June or 30 June, what’s the big rush”?

Well, technically you do have that long, but my approach and mindset was that clients had been afforded ample opportunity over the previous 8 months for me to do their taxes. Those clients that need to defer lodgement until 15 May, well they can simply be done and held for lodgement!

My attention from 1 March turned to helping my clients and investing time working on my practice and my team. The outcome for the clients and myself were the same – to finish the year strong, get tax saving strategies in place, get the new financial year plans in place – budgets, price rises, pay rises, revisiting business visions, resetting goals and for myself and my team, updating work papers and checklists and scheduling next year’s workflow.

I created this course to help small and solo accounting practice owners gain confidence, learn and implement and tried and and tested tax planning process that will forever be your tax planning foundation which can be built on and embellished with your flavour into the future

The course is for small and solo accounting practice owners who want to: 

  • start offering a tax planning service to their SME clients
  • offer a more formalised tax planning service to their SME clients
  • produce accurate, thorough and easy to understand reports showing estimated profit and estimated tax that allow them and their clients to work through various tax planning strategies and to develop strategies and an action plan
  • improve the efficiency, effectiveness and profitability of their tax planning process eventually invest in more expensive tax planning software, however at the present time they are unable to justify this from a pricing / volume perspective and are particularly interested in learning more about the actual processes and system that will be their foundation on which they can keep building on each year. In saying that, I used the same system each year and just changed the tax rates and added new strategies as needed and my clients loved it!

Student Success

“I decided to offer a couple of tiers of tax planning packages and within the first week of me rolling out my offer, I had 2 clients take up my highest priced package. Funnily enough, what they paid for the tax planning package was much higher than they had paid for their 2019 compliance work!!!!”

“Basically I never understood tax planning – but now I realised I’d been doing a stripped back version of it all along and not charging much or appropriately for it."

Hi Amanda, I just want to thank you for your Tax Planning package.

I had a meeting with a client this afternoon and he advised me that he has had tax planning completed by his previous firm and found mine (your templates) to be clearer and more comprehensive. He also asked to prepay next years fees!

I started my accounting firm 18 months ago, and it is still quite small. I’m glad that I joined your tax planning course and the excel workbook you provided is going to be very helpful, and sufficient for the type of clients I serve. I don’t need to subscribe to any tax planning software. Being a very small firm right now it’s quite challenging to keep add on subscription costs.

I’m thrilled to be able to offering tax planning services in a more formal way. Your marketing resources from the course are amazing, and we only need to make a few changes to suit my business.
