As a follow-up to Debra’s webcast Planning for Clients with $1-15M in Net Worth, she discusses a much more organized approach for tax planning. A year-round planning calendar clearly shows how you apply tax planning to their financial decisions. The events encompassed in the calendar reinforce the key goals of a successful plan. As CPAs you talk tax planning, but here are ways to apply it with your client discussions that will allow you to be better organized, improve client retention and expectations and justify your fees. Debra answers questions like these and more:
- How can a year-round planning calendar improve client retention and team organization?
- What are the five key elements of a great financial plan?
- How do you differentiate your tax planning from the firm down the street?
- How does tax planning affect financial planning?
