DENISE STUBBS, CPA

Choosing to switch accounting firms is a big decision—and if you're a business owner or individual in Franklin, NC, you're not alone in considering it.

When tax season rolls around, you have plenty of options for who prepares your return. But not all tax professionals are created equal, and understanding the differences can help you choose the right person for your needs.

At our firm, we believe in being accessible to our clients, especially during the hectic months of tax season. But we also believe in giving each client our full attention when we're working on their returns. That's why we use a professional answering service, and today we want to pull back the curtain on how it works and why it improves your experience.

When meeting with a CPA, preparation makes all the difference. Walking in organized doesn't just save time, but it can actually save you money and help ensure you're getting every deduction you qualify for.

Every January, we see the same pattern: some clients scramble to find documents at the last minute, while others have everything organized and ready to go.
