Tax Rep Network with Eric Green

What if the biggest thing holding back your tax or accounting practice is the way you’ve always gotten new clients? In this episode of the Tax Rep Network Podcast, Eric Green sits down with James Donovan, founder of Accounting Leads Now, to challenge one of the profession’s most deeply ingrained assumptions: that referrals are the best way to grow. James explains how tax and accounting professionals can create a predictable pipeline of high-intent prospects by getting in front of people at the exact moment they are searching for help. They break down Google Local Services Ads, why they can outperform traditional pay-per-click advertising, what a qualified lead can actually cost, and why being visible in your local market matters more than ever. But generating the lead is only half the battle. Eric and James also dig into “speed to lead,” why the firm that answers the phone first often wins the client, how to calculate the lifetime value of a new client, and why marketing should be viewed as an investment rather than overhead. They also discuss a mistake many firms make as they move into advisory and higher-value services: trying to sell prospects services they don’t understand. Sometimes the smartest path to a high-value advisory client starts with solving the simple problem they are already searching for. If you want to stop hoping the phone rings and start building a system that makes it ring, this episode is for you. In this episode: • Why relying solely on referrals can limit growth • How Google Local Services Ads work • Why high-intent inbound leads are so valuable • The importance of “speed to lead” • What a new client is really worth over their lifetime • Why marketing is an investment, not overhead • How to dominate your local market • Why bookkeeping and tax work can be the front door to advisory • How to market what clients actually want—not industry jargon James Donovan is the founder of Accounting Leads Now, a marketing firm focused exclusively on helping accounting, bookkeeping, and tax firms generate new business.

What if the key to growing your tax or accounting firm isn’t working harder or hiring more people—but eliminating the work you shouldn’t be doing in the first place? Eric Green sits down with JC Franzen, Director of Product Sync & Integrations at BILL, to explore how AI, automation, and a smarter technology stack are changing the economics of running a tax and accounting practice. They discuss how firms can automate time-consuming back-office work like accounts payable, receivables, expense management, invoice processing, approvals, and data entry—and use that newfound capacity to serve more clients, expand into higher-value advisory services, and increase profitability without proportionately increasing overhead. JC also explains how AI is helping identify unusual transactions, reduce costly human errors, and automate tasks that once consumed hours of staff time. Eric and JC also tackle the ROI question: if technology can turn hours of administrative work into minutes, the opportunity isn’t simply to save money—it’s to build a more scalable and profitable firm. If you’re still writing checks, manually entering invoices, chasing payments, or paying staff to perform repetitive administrative work, this episode may change the way you think about your practice.

More than 11 million taxpayers have been identified as non-filers—and for tax professionals, that represents a massive opportunity to solve serious problems, deliver tremendous value, and build a highly profitable representation practice.   In this episode, co-hosts Eric Green and Dawn Brolin break down why non-filer cases are among their favorite tax resolution engagements and why practitioners may be leaving significant money on the table by overlooking them.   Eric and Dawn explain the IRS six-year compliance rule, why blindly filing every missing return can be an expensive mistake, and how strategic decisions involving filing status, state voluntary disclosure programs, bookkeeping, and collection alternatives can potentially save clients tens of thousands of dollars.   They also walk through the economics of a typical non-filer engagement—from reconstructing years of bookkeeping and preparing delinquent returns to resolving the final IRS and state balances—and show how a single case can become a 20,000–30,000 engagement. Just as important, they discuss how to price the work in stages, communicate the value you are providing, avoid taking on the client's financial problems as your own, and recognize when a difficult prospect simply isn't worth taking. And once the crisis is resolved? That former non-filer may become one of your most loyal—and valuable—long-term clients. If you handle IRS representation, or want to grow that side of your practice, this episode will show you why non-filers should be on your radar—and why you should talk to the client before they file anything.

The IRS has fewer employees. Artificial intelligence is taking on a bigger role. Enforcement is becoming more targeted. And the way cases are selected, worked—and appealed—may be about to change dramatically. So what does that mean for taxpayers and the professionals who represent them? Tax Rep Network Founder Eric Green sits down with former IRS SB/SE Commissioner Darren Guillot. Now on the other side of the table, Guillot offers a rare insider’s perspective on where the IRS is headed. They dig into the impact of the dramatic reduction in the IRS workforce, why enforcement revenue matters far beyond the dollars actually collected, and how the agency may use AI and massive amounts of taxpayer data to identify the cases most worth pursuing. Guillot also explains why AI could fundamentally change IRS audits—allowing the agency to spot risk earlier, select better cases, automate routine collection work, and concentrate experienced revenue officers and agents on higher-dollar and more complex taxpayers. Is the Independent Office of Appeals really independent? Why are some cases sitting in Appeals for years only to result in a “take 15–20% or go to court” settlement? And has Appeals drifted away from what Guillot himself helped design through the Appeals Judicial Approach and Culture (AJAC) initiative? If you represent taxpayers before the IRS, this is a conversation you’ll want to hear. The IRS of the next five years may look very different from the IRS you know today. Want to contact Darren?

IRS Letter 11 is one notice you—and your client—cannot afford to ignore. In this episode of the Tax Rep Network Podcast, Attorney Eric Green breaks down exactly what to do when a client receives an IRS Letter 11, the Final Notice of Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to a Collection Due Process Hearing. With automated IRS enforcement ramping up, understanding this notice—and acting before the deadline—is critical. Eric walks through the 30-day deadline for requesting a Collection Due Process (CDP) hearing, how to properly file Form 12153, and why being able to prove timely filing matters. He also explains what happens if the 30-day deadline is missed and when an Equivalent Hearing may still be available. You’ll also learn why taxpayer compliance is essential, what to request on Form 12153 when you haven’t yet determined the best resolution strategy, and how to prepare for Appeals. Eric explains the practical differences between Forms 433-A, 433-F, and 433-H, including which financial statement to use when dealing with ACS. Letter 11 means the clock is running. This episode gives tax professionals a practical roadmap for protecting their clients from levies, preserving appeal rights, and moving the case toward resolution. The same procedures generally apply to CP90 and Letter 1058. Want to master IRS representation and build your tax resolution practice?

Have you noticed that dealing with the IRS seems harder than ever? In this episode of the Tax Rep Network Podcast, tax attorney Eric Green explores a troubling trend he's seeing firsthand: IRS employees who don't understand their own procedures, give conflicting guidance, or simply fail to follow established rules.

AI is changing tax and accounting software faster than most firms realize—but what does that actually mean for your practice? In this episode, Eric Green sits down with Liscio founder Chris Farrell to discuss why the next generation of technology will be better, faster, and cheaper. They explore how AI is driving down software costs, why many traditional accounting platforms are facing unprecedented competition, and what tax professionals should be looking for before renewing expensive software contracts. Chris explains why the future isn’t just artificial intelligence—it’s smarter, deterministic technology that automates repetitive work while leaving strategic tax planning and client relationships where they belong: with trusted advisors. They also discuss private equity’s push into accounting, the evolution of document management into “file intelligence,” and why firms that embrace these changes will gain a significant competitive advantage. Whether you’re evaluating practice management software, AI tools, or simply wondering where the profession is headed, this conversation offers practical insights into how tax professionals can build a more efficient, more profitable practice in the years ahead.

Can the IRS just ignore the taxpayer's Power of Attorney (POA) and contact the taxpayer directly? No, unless specific criteria are met. In this week's episode, Eric Green discusses why that threat from the IRS employee is probably empty, and what to do if they do in case they bypass you and go directly to your client.

In Part 2 of this deep-dive series, Eric Green is joined again by former U.S. Department of Justice Tax Division attorney John Mulcahy for an unfiltered look at what really happens behind the scenes in a criminal tax case. This episode pulls back the curtain on the critical decision-making process inside the government—from how cases are reviewed and approved for prosecution to the high bar prosecutors must meet under the “reasonable probability of conviction” standard. John walks through what happens when IRS agents submit a case, how DOJ attorneys analyze evidence, and why some cases get sent back for further development before charges are ever filed. Eric and John also tackle one of the most important (and misunderstood) opportunities for defense attorneys: the pre-charging conference with the DOJ. They explain why these meetings matter, how they can change the trajectory of a case, and what prosecutors are really looking for before deciding whether to move forward with criminal charges. The conversation then shifts to strategy—covering proffers, reverse proffers, and how both sides use these tools to either build or defend a case. You’ll hear real-world examples of how these interactions play out, including when they lead to declined prosecutions… and when they don’t. Finally, the episode explores the realities of sentencing, restitution, and negotiation dynamics—breaking down how numbers drive outcomes, why simplicity matters in front of a jury, and how acceptance of responsibility can significantly impact a client’s future. Whether you’re a tax professional, attorney, or advisor, this episode delivers practical insight into navigating criminal exposure, advising clients effectively, and understanding how the government thinks at every stage of a case.

What really happens when a tax case goes criminal? In this episode of the Tax Rep Network Podcast, host Eric Green sits down with former federal prosecutor John Mulcahy—now in private practice at Nixon Peabody—to pull back the curtain on how criminal tax cases are built, reviewed, and prosecuted. Drawing on over a decade of experience at the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the DOJ’s tax division, John walks through the lifecycle of a criminal tax case—from initial IRS investigation to DOJ review, grand jury proceedings, and ultimately, prosecution decisions. Along the way, he explains why the DOJ still plays a critical gatekeeping role and how consistency in tax enforcement is maintained nationwide. But this conversation goes beyond process. Eric and John dig into the real-world dynamics that shape outcomes: the discretion of Assistant U.S. Attorneys, the strategic decisions behind charging (or declining) a case, and the often misunderstood role of “willfulness” in tax crimes. Through candid stories and behind-the-scenes insights, they highlight how cases can turn on a single issue—especially intent—and why listening closely to clients can make or break a defense. Now on the defense side, John also shares what it’s like transitioning from prosecutor to advocate—working with clients in crisis, navigating complex facts, and seeing firsthand that every case has more than one side. If you’re a tax professional, attorney, or anyone curious about how criminal tax enforcement really works, this episode offers a rare insider perspective you won’t hear anywhere else.

A recent court ruling could unlock major refunds for taxpayers – but the clock is ticking. In this episode, Eric Green sits down with Kenny Dettman to break down the massive implications of the Kwong and Abdo decisions, as well as why they could mean widespread penalty and interest abatements tied to the COVID-era IRS shutdown period.   At the center of it all? The IRS’s handling of IRC §7508A during the federally declared disaster window from 2020 through mid-2023. According to recent rulings, deadlines may have been suspended, potentially invalidating penalties and interest assessed during that time. But here’s the catch: the deadline to act is July 11, 2026. They also discuss scalable solutions, including new tools designed to automate transcript retrieval, calculations, and filings, giving both taxpayers and practitioners a way to act before time runs out.   Whether you’re a tax professional or a taxpayer, this is one of those “don’t miss it” moments. Because come July 12… the opportunity may be gone for good.

In this episode of the Tax Rep Network Podcast, Eric Green shares a powerful lesson sparked by a conversation with former New York Giants legend Leonard Marshall. Reflecting on the iconic 1990 NFC Championship hit on Joe Montana, Eric breaks down the mindset that separates the ordinary from the elite: never quit. At LSU, Leonard was taught that “the ground is hot” — if you’re down, you get up. Fast. That same mentality applies to building a tax representation practice. Success isn’t built on the easy days. It’s built on the dark, frustrating, stormy days when you want to quit — but don’t. Eric connects this championship-level discipline to growing a million-dollar practice: keep producing content, keep speaking, keep marketing, keep grinding. It must work — if you don’t stop.
