We’re staring at the death knell of traditional tax prep

It's boring
It’s low-pay
Hours are long
Stakes are high
Services are underpriced
Rules are complex and ever-changing
Margin and talent issues drive offshoring
Technology gaps exacerbate repetitive manual tasks
It doesn’t have
to be this way!
