Sundays shouldn’t feel like this.

That pit in your stomach.
Already drained before the week even starts.

That’s exactly why we built this apprenticeship.

Not for people who want “more content.”
For people who want more for themselves 👉 class starts May 11.

Nearly 40 years in tax. 🎙️

We welcomed Lawrence K.Y. Pon, CPA/PFS, CFP®, EA, USTCP, AEP to share lessons on building a tax career, growing a practice, networking & eventually transitioning out.

That’s experience you can’t get from a textbook.

[TaxCentric School of Hard Knocks @TaxCentricTM]

If you’re looking for a career with demand, look at the number of people becoming business owners. 👀

More freelancers. More gig workers. More small businesses.

They all have books to keep & taxes to file.

Sometimes the scariest part of this career 😅 is the first time you're alone with a problem you've never seen before.

That's what makes this community so great.

We teach you. We mentor you. And we're still here after you're credentialed because the questions don't stop when the exam does 🔥

The tax industry is changing.

Experienced tax professionals are retiring.
Business owners still need help.
Families still need guidance.

And the demand for knowledgeable tax advisors is not going away.

[TaxCentric School of Hard Knocks @TaxCentricTM]

This month, we’re starting the resolution section of the EA exam and it's a great time to join if you’ve been thinking about getting started.

Year 1: Earn the credential.
Year 2: Build what comes next.

DM me! Let's talk about how it could help you.

On the fence about the EA?

Here's your sign from @FortWayneCPA.

Every version of this career — your own firm, your own clients, your own rates — starts the exact same way.

Get the credential first. Everything else follows.

[TaxCentric School of Hard Knocks @TaxCentricTM]

Most firms want to absorb you.

We'd rather back you.

Think shared resources, separate firms, your own clients.

You keep what you build.

One idea for the future: include AI guidance in your engagement letter.
And if a client says, "ChatGPT told me..."
Ask for the prompt.

What are your thoughts?

A look inside the TaxCentric® Apprenticeship 👀

Year 1: earn your EA
Year 2: get support launching your own firm if that’s your goal 📈

Conversation from our apprenticeship with @RDriscollCPA

Your clients are using AI, too.

Don't be surprised when they say: "ChatGPT says something different..."

The future is going to be about knowing when AI is missing the context and how to explain the difference with confidence 🤖

Kid in the bowtie is my favorite instructor!

He has taught me more than anyone else.
