Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

Our Pricing is very competitive and designed to compete with the cost of hiring full-time professionals. Because of this model our type of services are recognized as the Best Value in Accounting, Tax and CFO services. We set a baseline for monthly pricing by customizing the needs of your company and determine your Flat Monthly Rate. As your needs fluctuate and you call for additional services at different times you simple add those services on at our set rates. Everything is transparent.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

It's important we know as much about your business as we can so there are no surprises. It is equally important for you to know about us so you can trust us to act in your best interest. Our first meeting will help us gather information needed to properly serve you and where we need to start. No one business is alike so where we go from there depends on you.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

Master of Tax Laws - Sturm College of Law - University of Denver 2005 Bachelor of Commerce - Accountancy - DePaul University 2000 I am also a professor of Accounting at Metropolitan State University of Denver in both the school of Hospitality and the School of Business.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I began my career with the largest and most prestigious of the Big 4 Accounting and Law firms, Arthur Andersen working with many emerging market players. Recognizing the need for affordable and reliable services for emerging businesses, I aimed to fill this gap. I understood that these businesses often struggled with limited resources and the challenges of coordinating multiple service providers to fulfill their needs. By leveraging my experience and expertise, I aimed to provide comprehensive solutions tailored to each client's needs. Through his meticulous oversight and commitment to excellence, I transformed TASC into a trusted partner for high-performing businesses, helping them thrive and succeed.

What types of customers have you worked with?

We work with businesses and Individuals. LLC's, S-Corporations, C-Corporations, and Partnerships. We work with all industries but have advanced knowledge in Real Estate, Hospitality, Construction and Technology

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

I am always happy to help business unlock cash they didn't previously have access to a few trending ways we can help your business include: 1. Employee Retention Credits. (ERTC) EXPIRING SOON! 2. FICA Tax Credits for Food Service businesses - THE OTHER HIDDEN GOVERNMENT STIMULUS. 3. Automatic accounting method changes - You've been doing it wrong and you didn't even know it Now the IRS will pay you to fix it! 4. Helping the Environment - Businesses are being paid to join the movement I love these projects because the results show in your bank account!! None of them take too long but ALL are worth it! What could you do with $50, $100 or $300 thousand extra dollars?

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Look for one who specializes. The laws can be very complex and omissions of information or overlooked laws can be costly and will ultimately fall on you not the preparer.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

1. Reviewing your business accounting on a regular basis can mean more cash in your pocket. 2. Don't throw money away because you only use accounting to prepare a tax return once a year. 3. Use Fractional Accounting and CFO Services - scale with your needs. 4. Review your last 3 years tax returns with a trained professional to unlock $$$$. 6. Ask Questions - you are responsible regardless of your finance providers actions. Know what they are doing. 7. Find someone you trust. Business doesn't always run smoothly but if you have the right team you don't have to worry about the bumps! 8. Tell your trusted advisor everything. The more transparent you are the better the solutions you will get. 9. You can't do everything yourself let go and let your advisors help you succeed. 10. Hire TASC today!
