People deserve a better tax filing experience

Your average CPA doesn’t make house calls. Private CPAs can cost an arm and a leg. Big box tax preparation chains often provide service that borders on impersonal.

At Happy Tax, we’re BIG on providing stellar customer service. But what really sets us apart is our FREE audit assistance. Each Happy Tax Franchisee will have access to our licensed CPAs who dig deep to find savings and ensure that each customer receives every last cent available. And if the customer gets audited for any reason, every tax filing you help to prepare comes with our full audit department assistance. For FREE.

In contrast, most tax preparers who offer audit assistance might have only one person who can assist with an audit. They’ll also charge a pretty penny for that “luxury.”

As a Happy Tax franchisee, you’re not only providing a superior tax filing experience, you’re providing a better quality of service and peace of mind. Your service sells itself!

Isn’t it time you tried something different? Something to build toward your future, instead of making someone else filthy rich while you exchange your blood, sweat and tears for pennies? Happy Tax is a simple and affordable way to get you started on that path!
