During the COVID-19 pandemic, TaxAssist Accountants is holding Virtual Discovery Days on Zoom, where people can find out more about the opportunity and potential in the US, the franchise package, international experience of the team, the technical helpdesk, digital technology, raising finance, business development, marketing support and business planning, all from the comfort of their own home.

Delegates joined the first Virtual Discovery Day which ran from 12-5pm EDT on the 1st July. The event was co-hosted by David Paulson, Senior Vice President, Franchise Development and Richard Chatten-Hague, Vice President, Franchise Support, who both have extensive experience of supporting franchisees in the UK, Ireland and Australia.

Richard said: “Five members of the Support Team logged into the meeting at various points during the day to present, including Hal Gross, President, Mike Melling, Director and Karl Sandall, Director and Group Chief Executive. It ran without a hitch, which bodes well for two further Virtual Discovery Days we have planned for Tuesday 25th August and Wednesday 16th September.

David continues: “We have now followed up with each delegate individually with telephone one-to-ones and we’ve had very positive feedback on the format and content of the day. I’d encourage anyone interested in finding out more about our future Discovery Day to give me a call on 888 488 1336 or visit our website for more information.”

Although all TaxAssist Support Centre staff are working from home, they are fully operational, and therefore TaxAssist Accountants is still able to welcome new joiners to the franchise with the Initial Training Course running virtually.

TaxAssist Accountants has won ‘5 Star Franchisee Satisfaction’ for seven years running in the UK from independent research agency WorkBuzz and the Support Centre has recently been awarded with ‘5 Star Employer’ status for the second year in a row based on feedback from its 60 strong UK workforce.
