Perhaps you would know what your tax stance was, what were the actions to take, the pitfalls to avoid. I have helped many working class people who have an idea for a self owned business, the wealthy who are clobered with excessive taxes, even penalties, businesses that seek net income maximization. A good CPA would take the time to know you, explain all the choices that are appropriate for you, and help manage these paths with effective communication skills. There are so many needs for each of us. It would be great if your CPA could network you with trusted vendors of payroll services, insurance needs, and investment advice.

Tax preparation has become a commodity in our culture now. This is fine for many, but is it enough for you?
