Franchise Solutions’ Business Directory Showcases Tax Preparation Franchises That Offer Stability

PRLog (Press Release) - Jun 30, 2009 -
Benjamin Franklin’s famous observation that, “In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes," rings especially true during this time of economic upheaval. Tax preparation has long been a strong, stable industry; and with increasingly complicated tax laws and a growing number of newly self-employed professionals, more and more people are turning to tax preparation service centers for help preparing their tax returns. In response to this burgeoning demand, Liberty Tax Service (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/franchise/Liberty_Tax_ ... ), a leading tax preparation franchise, is expanding and has listed their franchise opportunity on Franchise Solutions’ business directory in an effort to achieve their ongoing development goals.

It’s estimated that more than 63% of the taxpaying population outsources the task of preparing their tax returns to tax professionals, and that number is expected to rise (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/business_services_fran ...). Income tax preparation service center franchises, like Liberty Tax, offer prospective business owners the chance to own an in-demand, recession-resistant business. Previous tax experience isn’t necessary to take advantage of the Liberty Tax franchise opportunity, and the seasonal nature of the tax business gives Liberty Tax franchisees the freedom to pursue other interests during the rest of the year.  

Liberty Tax franchisees also benefit from joining a top-ranked franchise concept. Liberty Tax Service is consistently featured on Entrepreneur magazine’s list of the “Top 500” franchises. For 2009, Liberty Tax came in number three (after Subway and McDonald’s) on the magazine’s coveted “Top 10” list, and is currently ranked the number one franchise in the tax preparation category.

Affordable startup costs and widespread consumer brand recognition give Liberty Tax franchisees a competitive edge in the marketplace. Under the leadership of Liberty Tax Service CEO and Founder, John T. Hewitt, the company has opened 3,300 offices in 12 years, and has established itself as the fastest-growing tax preparation firm in North America.

Additional information regarding the Liberty Tax Service franchise opportunity can be found on Franchise Solutions’ business directory in the Business Services category.

Franchise Solutions’ business directory (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/) also lets business buyers explore diverse franchise and business opportunities in a wide range of industries. The site also offers prospective business buyers useful tools and resources including, financing information, a three-step Franchise Finder application and the latest industry news.
