We had the opportunity of sitting down with Yvette to discuss her mission of Empowering women in finance.

With over three decades of experience in the accounting field, what initially drew you to accounting, and how has your journey evolved over the years?

I was drawn to accounting because of its fundamental role in both business and personal decision-making. Over the years, my journey has evolved from learning the basics to becoming adept at navigating complex tax laws and offering strategic tax planning. My ongoing commitment to education and passion for helping others has been a driving force in my career.

As a best-selling author, IRS Enrolled Agent, and Certified Tax Coach, you possess a unique blend of expertise. How does this contribute to the services you offer at Best Tax Solutions LLC?

My diverse expertise allows me to offer comprehensive services beyond simple tax preparation. At Best Tax Solutions LLC, we provide strategic tax planning and financial coaching, helping clients maximize opportunities and minimize tax liabilities, thanks to my background as an Enrolled Agent and Certified Tax Coach.

Could you elaborate on what sets Best Tax Solutions LLC apart from other accounting firms, particularly in terms of your approach to working with small businesses and individuals?

What sets us apart is our personalized approach. We focus on building strong, personal relationships and understanding each client’s unique situation. This allows us to tailor our services to be most effective, ensuring our clients don’t just feel like another number in a file.

Your focus on keeping clients IRS and state-compliant while increasing their net profits is commendable. Can you share some strategies or techniques you utilize to achieve this balance effectively?

Certainly! We prioritize proactive tax planning and education, ensuring our clients understand the best financial management practices. We leverage every allowable deduction and strategically advise on business growth to balance compliance and profit maximization.

You mentioned your ability to turn employees into leaders and help them develop a 7-figure lifestyle. How do you integrate leadership development into your accounting practice, and what impact does it have on your client’s success?

Leadership development is key in our practice. We mentor and provide ongoing training for our team, encouraging them to take initiative and lead projects. This empowerment not only fosters personal and professional growth but also enhances the services we provide, directly impacting our clients’ success.

Living in Fayetteville, GA since 2011, how has the local community influenced your current walk, if at all?

The community spirit in Fayetteville has greatly influenced my approach. It’s reinforced the importance of community involvement and personal connections, both of which are integral to how we operate at Best Tax Solutions LLC.

With the ever-changing landscape of tax laws and regulations, how do you stay updated and ensure that your clients receive the most accurate and relevant advice?

I stay updated through 100 hours or more of continuous education each year, attending workshops, and networking with other professionals. This commitment helps me provide timely and effective advice to our clients.

As a woman-led firm, do you encounter any unique challenges or opportunities in the accounting industry, and how do you navigate them?

As a woman in a traditionally male-dominated industry, I face challenges such as breaking stereotypes and biases. However, these are also opportunities to demonstrate leadership and inspire other women in the field. We navigate these dynamics by focusing on professionalism and excellence in our work.

Looking ahead, what are your goals and aspirations for Best Tax Solutions LLC, and how do you plan to continue making a positive impact in the lives of your clients and community?

Our goals include expanding our client base, enhancing our services, and providing impactful solutions. We aim to adapt to the financial landscape changes, ensuring our community and clients benefit from informed and effective strategies.

What is your definition of a Pretty Woman Who Hustles?

A Pretty Woman Who Hustles is a driven woman who pursues her goals with passion and perseverance and uplifts others along her journey. She embraces challenges, stands firm in her values, and works tirelessly to create success for herself and her community.
