The hidden key to a thriving Tax Practice: Great Customer Service

In the tax and accounting world, technical knowledge gets clients through the door – but it’s exceptional customer service that keeps them coming back.
Whether you’re a registered tax agent, BAS agent, or bookkeeper, your clients rely on you not just for accurate advice, but for a smooth, trustworthy experience. As the tax landscape becomes more competitive and automated, the way you communicate, engage, and deliver service can be what truly sets your practice apart.
And the best part? You can improve those skills and meet your TPB Continuing Professional Education (CPE) requirements – all in one.
Why customer service matters more than ever
In today’s environment, clients have more access to information – and more expectations. They want:
- Fast, clear communication
- Upfront, transparent pricing
- A smooth, stress-free tax experience
- A practitioner who listens and understands their needs
Delivering on those expectations builds trust, fosters loyalty, and leads to referrals and repeat business.
Excellent customer service isn’t just about being friendly. It’s about:
✔ Explaining complex tax issues in plain English
✔ Managing deadlines and expectations clearly
✔ Handling customer relations with professionalism
✔ Creating a consistent and reliable client experience
Service is a skill – and it can be learned
The good news? These client-focused skills aren’t something you’re just born with – they can be developed with the right training.
And under the Tax Practitioners Board (TPB) guidelines, soft skills like client communication, ethics, and practice management are eligible areas for Continuing Professional Education (CPE).
That means enhancing your customer engagement isn’t just good for business – it’s a professional requirement.
