πŸ‘€ Why You Need an Enrolled Agent in Your Book of Business πŸ’Ό



What’s an Enrolled Agent Anyway?

If you’re reading this, chances are you care about your coins and want to level up your financial game. πŸ’°

Let me introduce you to your new best friend in the tax world: the Enrolled Agent, lovingly known as the EA. Now, I know some might think tax talk is dry, but trust me, it isn't! Plus, I hear two things in life are certain and welp TAXES is one of them so you might want to know a little bit about them πŸ˜‰

An Enrolled Agent is a tax professional who’s been blessed (seriously, it’s tough!) by the IRS itself. Unlike CPAs or attorneys, EAs specialize in taxes—living, breathing, and sometimes even dreaming of deductions and credits. (I am guilty ✋) 

The IRS gives them the power to represent taxpayers in front of Uncle Sam, handling everything from prepping returns to fighting audits, and even negotiating on your behalf. Basically, EAs are the superheroes of the tax universe, capes and calculators included. πŸ–©


Why Is It Important to Have an EA on Your Team?

  1.     They’re IRS-Approved Experts
  2.    Not just anybody can call themselves an EA. These pros have passed a super tough exam and background check, plus they keep learning every year to stay sharp on the latest tax laws. When you work with an EA, you know you’ve got someone who’s officially recognized by the IRS and knows their stuff inside and out.
  3.   Year-Round Support (Not Just Tax Season!)
  4.    I know tax season can feel like finals week, stressful and never-ending. But EAs don’t disappear when April rolls around. Whether you’re dealing with payroll, planning for next year, or got a not-so-fun letter from the IRS, EAs stand by you all year long. They’re the steady, reliable shoulder you want to lean on when the tax tides get rough.
  5.   Representation in IRS Matters
  6.   Let’s be real: nobody wants to tango with the IRS alone. If you ever get audited, owe back taxes, or need to set up a payment plan, your EA can step in and speak for you. Think of them as your personal tax advocate handling the tough stuff, so you can get back to living your best life.
  7.  Tax Planning That Fits You
  8.   Whether you’re running a small business, hustling in your side gig, or investing for your family’s future, EAs help you build a strategy that fits your unique situation. They break down complex tax rules in a way that’s easy to understand, so you feel empowered not overwhelmed.
  9.  Saving Money (and Maybe Your Sanity!)
  10.  Let’s not forget the most important part: EAs help you keep more of your hard-earned money. With their deep knowledge, they spot deductions and credits that others might miss. And when you save on taxes, you’ve got more for the things that matter whether it’s growing your business, spoiling your grandbaby, or just treating yourself to a little self-care.

The Power of Representation: My Perspective

As an African American woman, I know what it’s like to break stereotypes and build trust in spaces where my voice isn’t always expected. EAs come from all walks of life and hold a fierce commitment to serving our communities with excellence and heart. When you have an EA by your side, you’ve got an ally who’s not just about the numbers, but about understanding your story, your hustle, and your dreams.

So, if you're building your book of business, don't sleep on the value an enrolled agent brings! We’re here to help you navigate the wild world of taxes with a little savvy, a lot of skill, and if I may say so a dash of soul.😎

Ready to Make Tax Time a Breeze?

If you want to keep your business thriving and your stress low, make sure an EA is part of your team. Trust me, your future self will thank you for it! Now, go ahead and set up that meeting—your finances deserve the VIP treatment.

  3 Things You Can Do... To make your Accountant happy at tax time ☺ Want to be your accountant’s favorite client? (Well, even more than you are now, of course) The key is to take a bit of time now to start preparing for your tax return appointment, so your accountant has everything they need, when they need it, to complete your return.     Of course, as a favorite client, you already know that the days of dropping off a shoebox of receipts and tax documents at the front desk…waiting for a call to let you know you forgot such-and-such documents…stopping by to drop off the missing info…waiting for the call that your return is done…then stopping in to pick up the finished return, is in the past.
