So you survived tax season, now what? Well, this is the window where most firms, they take their foot off the gas a little bit. They check out over the summer. They work 30 hours a week, they kind of finish up their extensions. But the firm owners that are serious about scaling their business usually take things up a notch over the summer. This is the time to beef up your operations. This is the time to get a real marketing and sales system in place. We want to replace all of those sucky clients with new, better ones. And if you use your summer right, this could be the last year you ever prepare a tax return. But if you just coast through summer, you're going to be right back in survival mode by January.
