Tax season will soon be upon us and will be a busy time for you. Accounting
Practice Sales (APS) understands this; that’s why we developed the
innovative Head Start program to help market your firm during tax season
AND defer speaking with interested buyers until after April 15th.
Here’s how Head Start works: Starting now and through tax season, APS will promote your firm
based on your latest results. This includes notification to our thousands of registered buyers, listing
on our national website at www.APS.net, and inclusion in all our digital and traditional marketing
campaigns. As we identify interested buyers, we’ll let them know you are unavailable until after
April 15th. Since its implementation, Head Start has proven extremely successful for our sellers
because it allows you to continue working uninterrupted, retain the revenue from tax season,
and have interested buyers waiting once you’re ready. Some of these buyers may even wish to
make an offer for your later consideration.
Head Start puts us to work for you at absolutely no cost until we sell your firm. Getting started is
simple—minimal documentation and information is required. We’ll evaluate your firm and help you
establish an asking price based on current market conditions. Whether you believe the economy is
moving in the right direction or is full of risk, accounting and tax practices are more stable than many
other industries and professions. Individuals and businesses will continue to need tax filings, financial
statements, and other accounting services. With thousands of buyers looking to purchase practices,
this is an ideal time to sell!

Our promise: We will work hard and smart through tax season to find you the perfect buyer and to
get you the best price and terms the market has to offer. Year after year, APS successfully sells more
practices than anyone else in the nation. Why wait another three months to get started? Call or
email us today and find out how simple and smooth this process can be with APS working for YOU!
