r/taxpros for B2B sellers

91,898 members · rules and posts checked 18 October 2026

r/taxpros is a community for news and updates for tax professionals, with 91,898 members. Sellers should be cautious here, because the available rules don't say whether promotion is allowed.

Common requests include help choosing software, building a technology stack, automating practice operations, finding marketing and growth solutions, and improving how a tax practice serves clients and scales.

At a desk covered with neatly sorted coins and ledgers, an owl-like accountant studies a balance scale whose pans are hidden behind a curtain, reflecting uncertainty about the rules.

Self-promotion: unclear

The posted rules only mention user flair and do not include any stated policy on promotion, advertising, or self-promotion. Based on the rules shown, it is not possible to determine what sellers may or may not promote.

What a good reply looks like here

A good reply answers the question directly and shares practical experience or useful ways to evaluate options. Since the promotion policy is unclear, leave out promotional claims.

Sample reply: For business-development training and mentoring, compare options by whether they focus on client acquisition, referral systems, pricing, retention, or practice management. Before choosing a program, look for clear examples of how it teaches firms to attract and keep clients, and check whether it offers ongoing coaching or peer support. It also helps to define your growth goals first (adding new clients, improving retention, or expanding services) so you can judge training against specific outcomes.
