Your situation matters.
Start with your world.

The application starts with how we work, then fit questions and the next step toward a Private Client Tax Fit Call.

01 / Business owners

Grow the business.
Keep more of the upside.

Your tax decisions should work with the business you’re building. See how planning and coordinated tax work fit together.

02 / Real estate investors

Build the portfolio.
Plan the tax side.

Properties, records, entities, and your next transaction deserve a coordinated view. See the approach for real estate investors.

03 / High W-2 earners

Earn well.
Get clear on what’s next.

When your financial life gets more involved, a once-a-year filing conversation may leave questions unanswered.

A team you can actually work with

The relationship
should feel different.

Good service means knowing what you’re paying for, who to contact, and what happens next.

Clear billing

Ask your question.
Don’t brace for an invoice.

Your membership covers the services and access in your agreement. Included work and included advisor calls don’t generate separate invoices. No surprise invoices for routine emails or quick questions covered by your membership.

Additional billable work gets a clear explanation, a price, and your written approval first. Individual advisor text support starts with Diamond.

Familiar people

Your advisor plans ahead.
Your Tax Manager owns the filing.

Your Tax Strategist—or Senior Tax Advisor with Black—owns your advisory relationship. Your Tax Manager owns your tax preparation and filing from start to finish. They lead the preparation team, drive technical review, keep deadlines in view, and make sure filing status is verified. A dedicated tax delivery lead who knows your file and keeps the work moving.

You know where to start. We coordinate the work and handoffs. Exact services and access are agreed before enrollment.

Start with a video about how we work, answer a few questions, and see whether a Private Client Tax Fit Call is the right next step.

Apply to Become a Client
This relationship makes sense when you
  • Want ongoing tax strategy and planning alongside clearly scoped delivery.
  • Value a plan tied to your business, real estate, or financial goals.
  • Can provide records, answer questions, and participate in decisions.

We’re not promising a particular tax savings amount, investment return, or a service that fits everyone. If you’re still exploring, the free roadmap is a good place to begin.

Before you choose your next step

A few straight
answers.

Choose the path that matches where you are today.

Should I watch the video or take the roadmap quiz?

If you’re ready to explore working with a tax team, watch the video. It explains the approach and leads toward fit-call qualification. If you want a better sense of your starting point first, take the free Tax Roadmap quiz.

Does watching the video book me a call?

No. The video is the first step in that path. You can then answer the qualification questions and, if appropriate, choose an available call time. Watching or reading does not enroll you in a paid service.

What is the free Tax Roadmap?

An educational quiz that helps identify your stage and the areas to focus on next. It doesn’t require tax returns and isn’t a personalized assessment of your filed returns. Start at the quiz so your results follow your answers.

Where can I compare your memberships?

Our D.U.D.E. Experience guide explains Gold, Diamond, and Black, including agreed services, support access, and planning frequency. Individual advisor text support starts with Diamond.

Will I know the full cost before I commit?

Yes. We present your annual pay-in-full price first, with the standard annual price and exact dollar and percentage savings. Every-four-week billing is also available: 13 payments per 52 weeks. The $3,000 Private Client Assessment is included with a 12-month membership commitment; no separate upfront assessment charge applies. Your membership payment is due at enrollment. We explain your exact scope and terms before you commit, and additional billable work needs your written approval.

Clear scope. No surprise invoices.

Your quote reflects the tax situation and services discussed on our call. Minor changes generally won’t affect your quoted price. Significant changes, complex tax events, or previously undisclosed information may require additional work beyond the services in your agreement. We explain the work and obtain your written approval of additional fees before proceeding. Your signed engagement defines the final services and terms.

If you cancel before completing the 12-month membership, the $3,000 Private Client Assessment fee becomes payable. Your signed engagement confirms cancellation and any other outstanding obligations.
