Testimonials

I’ve been in the business (CPA) for 25 years, I’ve met with and worked for many men & women, and taken countless seminars which fortunately evolved into webinars. You are hands down the best speaker/teacher/subject matter guru I have encountered in my travels living and practicing in 4 different states from coast to coast. I just have to say that my respect for you is off the charts. As I wrote in one of my webinar reviews, “If Eric’s teaching a class, I’m attending.” I feel so lucky that I happened to take a CPA Academy webinar last Summer that this guy Eric Green was teaching. That webinar put me on a path that’s restarting my practice that at my age I had pretty much wound down to close friends, long time clients that stayed with me all across the country, and relatives.

Thank you for all that you’ve taught me over the last year. For a number of reasons, I’m just now kicking my Tax Rep practice into gear. Between you and Roger Nemeth, I feel that I’ve a solid understanding of the processes needed to help people down here in Paradise, and having your 3 books and access to TRN and its resources gives me a high enough degree of confidence to jump into this new market. After I took my first class from you last Summer, I looked back over my career and realized that the most personally rewarding work I had done dealt with tax representation engagements. There’s nothing like the satisfaction one gets when a client says, after the “here’s what we can do for you” conference, something along the line of “Thank you so much! I’m going home to get the first decent night’s sleep I’ve had in months.” I know that you know what I’m talking about. You don’t get that kind of warm fuzzy from preparing 1040’s.

So when you taught me how to make a really good living doing the one thing I truly enjoyed in all my years in the business, coupled with the cosmic timing of all the COVID implications and the coincidental timing of the IRS’s actions and its ramping up of all its collection efforts, the opportunity was so clearly the right career move at the right time that I was just amazed. As a man who, like most men, has a genetic aversion to change, even I was excited about the prospects of making this change.

I’m sorry to have written such a long email because I know you’re busy, but I had to take this opportunity to give you the props you deserve and express my gratitude for all you’ve done for me personally. Thank you Eric. I look forward to the day when we can swap stories and have some laughs with a good bottle of bourbon nearby.” – Steve Glindmeier, CPA, Paradise Tax, Inc.
