It is that time of year we all hate. Yes I said hate…Tax Time! Many of us struggle with doing our own taxes, taking the the route of using a tax software all the while praying we get it done correctly in order to maximize our return versus the government keeping our hard earned income.
It is a daunting task that no one likes to do. Even worse is trying to find the right accounting professional to do your taxes, one you feel comfortable with and trust. Sure we can use word of mouth or scour the internet looking at hundreds of listings and websites, all the while developing an even more sinking feeling in our stomachs, dreading the task even more.
Well hold on, I was recently perusing The Washington Post at a doctor’s office when I came across a short article that mentioned a website called Prosado.com. Immediately upon leaving the doctor I whipped open my tablet and pulled up Prosado.com. It was great and easy to use, here is how it works.
When you land at Prosado.com. It gives a quick and clear explanation on who they are and what they do, I can’t personally explain it better than Prosado themselves and this is what they say…
“Welcome to Prosado”
“Get ready for the next step in the evolution of tax & accounting services.
Prosado has created a new & innovative way of connecting customers with tax & accounting professionals, at a price that makes everyone happy.”
“After entering your zip code, you will see a list of tax and accounting professionals that are near you. All professionals who are members of Prosado will have customer ratings (both from Prosado customers as well as other reviews), their location and profile. The profile is where you can see more about the professionals including their education level, how many years they have been in business, their bio and more.
It’s free to use Prosado and you are under no obligation to choose any tax and accounting professional if you don’t find the right match for you.”
It was such a user friendly website and very welcoming. It reminds me a bit of hotwire.com or one of those sites that combines everything into one for the ease of the customer. I think we’ll start seeing more things that make surfing the web for services easier just like Prosado. It just makes sense. We all have computers now but it’s still easy to spend hours looking things up. Let me know how it worked out for you, hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I know I’ll be glad to get my taxes out of the way! ☺
Never heard of them before, interesting
