On this week’s episode of the Tax Rep Network Podcast, I’m thrilled to be joined by a very special friend, Nellie Akalp, the founder and CEO of CorpNet. Through CorpNet, Nellie and her team provide comprehensive, cost-effective services to anyone who is forming a corporation or an LLC, starting a business as a sole proprietorship or a partnership, as well as those who already have clients in an existing business entity. Additionally, she assists with business filings, expanding into different states, navigating state tax registrations, and so much more!

Now, if you’ve been listening, it’s not a closely-guarded secret that Nellie and myself have been scheming to roll out an entire series of talks on everything professionals need to know about legal entities, including choice of entity, formation, operation, mergers, acquisitions, sales, and dissolutions, along with everything in-between, like state registration, sales tax issues, etc.

Today’s chat was supposed to cover the opening volley for this lineup. Yet, as it’s so easy to do, Nellie and I find ourselves going down the entrepreneurship rabbit hole, resulting in an unplanned, yet still fun and informative, discussion.

Listen in and enjoy what is only the first of this spectacular summer series! Episode #124 of the Tax Rep Network is available now!

This week, I’m thrilled to welcome Jina Etienne to the Tax Rep Network Podcast. For those listeners who are unfamiliar with Jina, her background is quite impressive! She is a CPA and D&I consultant, speaker, and trainer. Additionally, Jina is a storyteller and draws from her unique background and mix of work experiences to offer examples and share insights designed to increase both awareness and appreciation for the benefits of being your authentic self.

Now more than ever before, it’s important to be your authentic self. However, Jina shares an interesting side to this point: While being your authentic self, it’s also necessary to adapt yourself for specific situations. For example, you may be a slightly different version of yourself when having dinner with a friend versus having dinner with a client. This doesn’t mean you’re covering, hiding, or pretending, but simply properly adapting to your surroundings.

I guarantee you don’t want to miss our chat. Listen in on this fascinating conversation and learn how you can be yourself, which can lead to an increase in sales and client connections.

Joining me on this week’s episode of the Tax Rep Network Podcast is Sharrin Fuller. Sharrin is the CEO and founder of Glass Wallet Ventures, as well as a managing partner in multiple accounting and financial service businesses, including A Simple Office Solution.

After successfully starting her own virtual practice, she scaled and sold it! Sharrin developed the Remote Firm Scaling System and Remote Team Roadmap to help accounting firms position themselves for growth and eventual acquisition, with maximum productivity from their teams.

Today, Sharrin and I chat about virtual practices and how to set yourself up to eventually sell your practice and maximize your assets. To start the conversation, though, Sharrin describes how she got into the accounting industry—and it’s pretty interesting!

After deciding she didn’t want to spend eight years in college in order to become a lawyer or psychologist, she started managing companies, which she enjoyed. Then, she got her nail license and bought a salon, describing herself as a “jewel of all trades.” From there, she learned about accounting, handling her own QuickBooks®, understanding payroll taxes, liability, workers compensation, and more.

If you want to find out what Sharrin did next, you’ll have to listen to the podcast! Good news: Episode #122 of the Tax Rep Network Podcast is out now!
