Tax season is finally over—and now it’s time to take stock, compare notes, and rethink how to run your practice smarter, not harder. In this episode of the Tax Rep Network Podcast, host Eric Green is joined by the unstoppable Dawn Brolin, CPA, CFE, for a raw and revealing post-season debrief that every tax professional needs to hear.

What started as a casual catch-up quickly turned into a masterclass in firm automation, client management, and how to make tax season less chaotic—and way more profitable - by implementing Ignition. Dawn breaks down how she completely transformed her practice by requiring engagement letters and full prepayment before a single return goes out the door. From raising prices after January 31st to revoking unsigned engagements, she shares how setting boundaries with clients turned her firm into a cashflow machine—dropping $40K/month into her account on autopilot.

Eric shares his own lessons from managing hundreds of open IRS representation matters and the moment he knew it was time to stop chasing payments and start using Ignition to get organized, get paid, and get peace of mind. Together, they highlight how implementing Ignition streamlined client onboarding, automated follow-ups, and eliminated the dreaded “double consult” by embedding personalized videos into engagement letters.

From leveraging subscription pricing to firing problematic 1040 clients with grace, Dawn and Eric unpack the mindset shift that helped them reclaim their time and build practices that run smoother, serve better clients, and make more money. You’ll hear real-life examples, laugh-out-loud client stories (like charging extra for removing staples!), and the powerful idea that if you're doing high-value work, you should absolutely be charging for it.

Whether you're a CPA, EA, attorney, bookkeeper, or anyone else working in the tax world, this episode is a wake-up call: you are not a charity, and your time is too valuable to give away. Now is the time to set up systems, raise your prices, and stop doing everything manually.

If you’re tired of the billing chaos, constant follow-ups, and late-night April 15th scrambles, this episode will inspire you to make a change that could permanently improve your practice—and your life.
