Dianne, NM

"Current and relevant topic! Gross receipts tax is one of the most complex taxes. It's not always intuitive and is higher risk for error for CPA's. The speaker knew the subject well and indicated the "heads up" on what CPA's need to know in order to not get surprised by audit letters from states with gross receipts tax. State governments are finding ways to extract more sales tax now that the world is more virtual. He also addressed this subject with thorough and relevant knowledge. This course is a must for any CPA that prepares business tax returns since preparing an income tax return begs the question to the client about proper reporting of sales/gross receipts tax if one is doing a thorough job."

Yipfung, NJ

"Yes. I really enjoyed the webinar. The updated information I learned from the webinar helped me in my work and in explanning the new sales tax laws to my clients. I actually missed the last session and I ended up watching the recorded one. I decided to sign up again this time (of course the free of charge helps a lot). I found out it is different when you attend a live session. It allows you to participate the polling question and to engage the session and the topic. Your company was referred to me by one of my partners in my firm. I really enjoyed the webinar."

"Expanding Sales Tax is the "next frontier" for cash starved States and local governments; regardless of MFA. Given that "the best defense is a great offense", ALL Tax Practitioners have a professional duty to evaluate each of their clients potential exposure AND help them formulate an cost effective and appropriate response ... the class is an excellent way to begin this process"

Joyce, OH

"After participating in this webinar, I am really happy that my company recently invested in the sales tax and certification programs offered by Avalara! We are in the process of implementation and once completed, I will feel much more confident that we are collecting and remitting all the sales taxes that we should be."

Allen, DC

"As a former tax practitioner I found many businesses and individuals unfamiliar with the sales and use tax reporting requirements in States of residence and business situs. This presentation was an excellent refresher on the complexities of this subject and the need for professional responsibility."

Linda Qbq, CA

"Your webinars are the best! I always learn so much. You have webinar partners that help the presenter to know when his screen is not being shared, or there's any other problem. You always correct any problems within 10 seconds. That has to be a record. Thanks so much."

Lee, NE

"Thank you for your presentation. I will continue to follow Avalara as The Marketplace Fairness Act of 2013 works it's way through the House as this is by far the most understandable information that I can share with my clients, that I have found to date."

Charles, NY

James, CO

"The material presented will be useful in determining a course of action for a business involved in interstate commerce. I was drawn to the course as a consultant involved in setting up a reporting system for an internet provider of computer program updates of nursing home operational management systems. We had to trace the tax ability of our product through the Streamline Tax System and reference approximately 25 state tax reference sources to determine which states we were required to register and set up sales tax accounts to report to. Use of an automated system would have saved several months of frustration."

Patricia, MO

"It is apparent that the complexity of complying with this future law, we will have to recommend to our clients to seek out resources/software such as Avalara. There is NO way we can take on preparing these multiple state sales tax reports at any reasonable cost to our client, as well as, NO way they could track these sales as effectively as companies such as Avalara!"

Deanna, FL

Janeane, NC
