Why we exist

Serious work for people in serious trouble deserves better marketing

Your clients arrive with levies, liens and years of unfiled returns, or with tax bills that should never have been that high. The firms that help them properly are too often outspent and outshouted by those that do not. We exist to change that balance.

The market in 2026

The market moved. Most tax firm marketing did not

Demand is up, search is expensive, platform targeting is restricted and well-funded competitors are buying growth. The firms winning now play a different game.

13.3M

Demand is back

CP14 balance-due notices issued in FY2025, annualised, after the IRS restarted automated collection.

$40+

Search got expensive

Cost per click on IRS-debt search terms runs roughly $40 to $90, against national firms with deep budgets.

18–65+

Targeting got blunt

Meta's fixed age range for financial services ads in the US since January 2025. No lookalikes, no narrow audiences.

11/30

Rivals got capital

Of the 30 largest US accounting firms, at least 11 have taken private equity investment.

The firms that grow now reach taxpayers before the search, qualify after the click and answer within minutes. That is the system we build.

How it works

One path from ad to booked call

It starts with an offer that stands out. Then every prospect takes the same route, built for your firm. Here is each step, and what the numbers typically look like.

Where it starts

An offer that stands out

The moment someone clicks a tax relief ad, Meta starts showing them dozens of near-identical ones. If your firm looks the same as the rest, people choose on price.

  • Different. We find what genuinely sets your firm apart: credentials, process, focus, speed.
  • Better. We make it the best and only sensible option for the client you want.
  • Explained your way. A clear mechanism for how you solve the problem, put in words nobody else in your market uses.

The result: more people book, and the consultation is easier because they have already chosen you.

  1. AdYour professionals on camera, speaking to the problem
  2. Lead formName and contact, in seconds
  3. Landing pageWhy your firm, explained differently
  4. Qualifying questionsDebt, situation, urgency, against your rules
  5. VideoA short explainer from your team
  6. Booked callStraight into your calendar
  7. Confirmation pageWhat to expect, with reminders sent

What happens to every 100 people who view your page

  • 23% book a qualified call on their own. That is 23 of every 100.
  • +7 to 17% booked by a setter who calls within 1 to 3 minutes. Total: 30 to 40 of every 100.
  • The rest are followed up by email, SMS and WhatsApp until they are ready.
Example: 1,000 page views. 230 book themselves, setters lift that to 300 to 400 booked calls, and the other 600 or so are nurtured, not lost.

How the ads find what works

  • 8 videos. 2 scripts, each with 4 different hooks.
  • 20 statics. Different angles on the same offer.
  • The winners hit the KPIs and get the budget. The rest are cut, and new versions are made in the style of the winners.
Example: 28 creatives go live in week one. By week two, the 3 or 4 that hit the numbers carry the spend.
The outcome

A calendar that fills itself, every week of the year

Qualified prospects land in your calendar day by day, each with their situation already answered. You run the consultations, sign the right ones, and the pipeline builds behind you.

4 to 8qualified calls a day
20 to 40a week, into your calendar
12months of the year, not just tax season

Plus 11 more on Thursday and Friday.

Figures are averages across our live campaigns, shown as an example. Your results depend on your offer, market, budget and how quickly enquiries are contacted.

Compliance standard

Built to stand up to scrutiny

Tax relief advertising has a long record of FTC action. One careless ad can cost a firm its ad account, its reputation or its licence. So compliance is part of the brief, not a check at the end.

  • FTC, Circular 230 and state rules applied to every claim
  • Correct Meta special ad category from day one
  • No government look-alikes, no outcome promises
  • You approve every ad and page before it runs
What gets firms in trouble
Settle your IRS debt for pennies on the dollar!Guaranteed approval. Final notice: act in 24 hours.
  • Promises outcomes no practitioner can promise
  • Invents urgency
  • Mirrors the language the FTC has sued over

Season planner

Planned around the tax year

A resolution firm and a planning firm want opposite things in February. Budgets, offers and messages move with the season, so you buy attention when it converts.

How we work

What you can hold us to

Five commitments that shape every engagement, written into how we contract, build and report.

Tax firms only

We do not learn your industry on your budget. Every campaign we run improves the next one for a firm like yours.

Exclusive, never shared

Every enquiry is generated for your firm, under your name, and goes only to you.

Qualified is defined in writing

Before launch we agree what a qualified consultation means for your firm. Our target is set against that definition.

Your accounts, your data

Your ad account, pixel, contacts and footage. Nothing is held back if you leave.

A report every week, from a person

Spend, qualified consultations, cost per consultation, show rate and the one decision we are making next.

Questions

What firm owners ask first

More answers on our FAQ page.

Who do you work with?

Established US tax firms with a standard of work worth scaling: tax resolution firms, tax planning and advisory practices, and CPA firms growing advisory revenue. Clients range from small enrolled agent practices to some of the largest resolution firms in the country.

What do you actually do?

We build and run the full acquisition system: market research, offer and messaging, compliant ad creative and video, landing pages, qualifying forms, follow-up automation, optional appointment setting and weekly reporting. Your team runs the consultations and does the client work.

Do you guarantee results?

We never promise case outcomes, revenue or tax savings, and nobody advertising for your firm should. What we do put in writing is the appointment target for the engagement and what happens if we fall short of it.

Are the enquiries shared with other firms?

No. We are not a lead vendor. Every enquiry comes from campaigns run in your name, in your ad account, and goes only to you.

How quickly can we be live?

Most firms launch about two weeks after onboarding. The main dependency is filming: the sooner your team records the scripts we write, the sooner we go live.

Who owns the accounts and data?

You do. Campaigns run in your ad account with your pixel. Every contact record and every piece of footage is yours, during and after our work together.
