Feedback from the Inner Circle
“Being part of this mastermind group makes me feel confident, supported, and like I am finally steering my ship in the right direction instead of letting the waves crash over me, because I know that week after week I have somebody to guide me and a group of people who are all rooting for each other - we're in it together.”- Tara Hendrickson, EA, CTC
“Tom has allowed me to focus more on value-based billing (I always tried to make excuses to not do this), helped with tax research tactics, and talked in-depth about numerous topics including my questions and open discussion. The open discussion has really made my mind work and grasp some of the concepts at hand… I think the biggest thing I have learned in this program is to not undervalue yourself.”- Justin Gates, EA, MBA, CTP
“I have been extremely pleased with my Inner Circle Membership. The time I no longer spend researching complex tax matters has resulted in 12+ hours a month that I can spend in other areas at my firm. Tom is truly like the walking tax code. The one-on-one access to Tom is priceless. Not only the vast amount of technical knowledge I have gained but also the encouragement to charge what I am worth has been monumental in increasing my revenue by 25%, which I expect to double next year.” - Josh Youngblood
“I've saved hours on research and feel more confident knowing I'm supported on the technical side. I've also been able to increase my gross revenue by 40% from the previous year. Beyond the technical knowledge, Tom supports the members of the Inner Circle by offering advice on pricing, challenging us to charge our worth and to think of ways to improve our practice.” - Olga Baraz
Client Referrals
If you have a client situation for which you need in-depth support, Tom is available to collaborate.
Here are two common examples of collaboration:
1
Tom represents your client in the United States Tax Court in an IRS matter, but you continue to serve as the client’s tax professional and return preparer.
2
Tom assists you with the development of a comprehensive tax reduction plan for your client, but you deliver and implement the bulk of the plan.
If you have a client who needs ongoing tax return preparation services on complex issues, and you no longer feel comfortable preparing the return, Tom will consider taking on the client; however, he has limited capacity for annual tax return preparation services.
