Tax Season is Coming – Is Your Firm Ready?
Here’s a hard truth: 68% of CPA firms report that tax season burnout affects their staff’s overall performance.
That means over half of firms are working under pressure, increasing the risk of errors, missed deadlines, and ultimately, dissatisfied clients.
The Reality of Tax Season Overload
One of our client firms faced this exact challenge. Despite having a seasoned team, they struggled to keep up with the volume—especially with complex filings and last-minute adjustments.
Their staff was stretched too thin, juggling multiple priorities, and struggling to maintain accuracy. Sound familiar?
But here’s the twist: they made one simple shift.
Instead of hiring more in-house staff, they outsourced part of their tax preparation to us.
The Results?
? 40% increase in filing accuracy ? 25% reduction in operational costs ? More time for high-level client advisory—leading to increased revenue
Why Outsourcing Isn’t Just a Cost-Saving Measure—It’s a Strategic Advantage
If you’re running a CPA firm, here are some numbers you can’t ignore:
?? 85% of CPA firms that outsource tax preparation report faster turnaround times during peak season. ?? Firms that adopt strategic outsourcing grow 15% faster than those that don’t. ?? The margin for error in an in-house tax prep team is 3-5%. With outsourcing, it drops to less than 1%, thanks to rigorous multi-stage review processes.
The Hidden Cost of Doing It All In-House
Hiring and training new tax professionals costs firms an average of $92,000 per employee per year, including salary, benefits, and training.
?? Outsourcing allows you to pay only for the services you need—saving you tens of thousands in overhead costs.
Firms that outsource tax work can reduce labor costs by up to 40%, maintaining profitability without adding stress to their staff.
But Why Outsource NOW?
It’s September. Tax season might still feel far away, but 93% of firms that start outsourcing early report a smoother, less stressful tax season.
Early preparation means: ?? No last-minute chaos ?? No scrambling to meet deadlines ?? No sacrificing quality to get the job done
