What people are saying
The "Beyond the Return Series" was a very enjoyable and thoughtful webinar series from Think Outside the Tax Box. The presenters, Amber and Matt, brought their experience and perspective to the topics of managing tax season, managing practices, and considering ways to improve the wellbeing of firm owners and employees. I would attend this series again, and I would recommend this series to others in the tax services industry. I appreciated the interactions between the presenters and the attendees, which comes through even if not attending live. This is helpful for thoughtful framework and consideration in setting up or changing a firm.
I loved Amber and Matt's webinar on practice management!! I have been restructuring my practice the last couple months because what I was doing wasn't profitable and it was way too much work. I feel like I've been equipped with a complete new set of tools. I feel like the tax office culture centers around growth and when that's not working for you it feels like you're the only one failing. This series gave me a new perspective and new hope. I can't wait to put into practice all the things I learned from this series. This is a must for tax pros at all stages of business life.
I thoroughly enjoyed TOTTB's practice management webinars and all tax practitioners can learn actionable ideas to apply to their practice. Amber and Matt are fantastic speakers and they review all aspects of running a tax practice including, but not limited to: revenue, technology, automation, workflow, workload, and the life cycle of a firm. They have real experience running real firms and speak honestly about their real-world experience. These are the best practice management webinars I have attended.
