Let's talk turkey, firm owners - how much are you making?

I got into doing taxes as a service for our financial planning, investment management clients. I realized that if you have their taxes also, they don't leave on a whim from another firm pitching massive returns. If clients have >$500k in assets with us, tax prep is likely included with their fee or greatly reduced.

If I could find tax/bookkeeping staff, I would no doubt be much larger. But having an admin is critical. I could not do it without her.

Good admin is critical. I just had to let one go because of poor performance, but poor performance is better than a stack of emails or paperwork that I have to work through on my own. I dropped the employee admin and went with a staffing service. It's not cheap, but well worth having the help.
