Tax-smart guidance for your business
From your first year in business to planning what comes next, we guide you through the tax side at every stage.
Get started
Running a business means making decisions that affect your taxes all year long, not just in April.
At PaulHood, we take the time to understand your business, your goals, and where you are right now. From there, we provide steady, practical tax preparation and guidance that grows with you, so you can focus on running your business with confidence.
How we support you
We don’t just prepare returns and disappear. Our approach starts with understanding your full picture, then guiding you through the tax decisions that matter throughout the year. As your business changes, your tax strategy should change with it.
Get started
Tax-Smart Guidance
We handle both tax preparation and ongoing planning with your business in mind. That means preparing accurate returns, but also helping you understand how today’s decisions affect your taxes down the road. Our guidance is tailored to your business, your goals, and the stage you’re in, so you’re not just reacting at tax time.
Audit Coverage
If the IRS ever reaches out, you don’t have to face it alone. We provide steady guidance and support throughout the audit process, helping you understand what’s happening and what’s required. Our team handles communication and details so you can move forward with confidence and peace of mind.
QuickBooks Training
Tax-smart guidance isn’t just about deductions. It’s also about having clean, accurate books. We help you understand how to use QuickBooks Online more effectively so your day-to-day financials stay organized. Better records lead to better insights, which allows us to provide clearer guidance and help you make informed decisions.
Financial Check-Ins
Our support doesn’t stop at filing returns. Our plans include financial check-ins so you can talk through goals, questions, and life changes as they come up. Whether you’re thinking about saving for education for a child or grandkid, preparing for retirement, or just want to understand how a decision affects your financial goals, we’re here to guide the conversation and help you think through your next steps.
Dedicated Support
You’ll have a dedicated Client Success Manager as your main point of contact, backed by a team of experienced tax professionals. We’re here to answer questions, provide guidance, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. You won’t be passed around or left guessing who to contact.
Our Secure Portal
You’ll get access to our secure client portal, designed to make working with your team easier. Scan and upload documents, sign forms electronically, and securely share information all in one place. Everything you need is accessible anytime, without the back-and-forth.
