I Built The Mentor
I Wish I Had.
Fifteen years ago I entered this industry looking for a real operator to learn from. What I found instead was overcharged programs, bad advice, and coaches who had never actually built the firm they were trying to sell me. So I built the mentor I wish I had — and TTU is what came out of it.

I was not looking for another job.
I was looking for a real operator to learn from.
I wanted more control over my income and my time. I wanted a business that could expand with me, on a calendar I actually designed. What I did not want was another mentor selling me a system they had never actually run.
Tax preparation became the vehicle. Fifteen years later I still operate the same firm — 600+ clients per season, running on the 4-month calendar I built for myself.
Along the way I met preparer after preparer who had been overcharged for training that never delivered a single system. Preparers who had a bad mentor and did not know if they could trust the next one. Preparers who could prepare a return but had no team, no automations, no marketing, no rhythm. So I built TTU for them.
Everything I teach at TTU is currently in use inside a firm that is running right now. Nothing was invented for the course.
The Receipts.
Not The Sales Pitch.
Numbers create interest. Receipts create trust. Every figure below reflects the same firm that is running today — the one every module of TTU was built from.
Is Not Just Money.
It Is Time.
Your firm should concentrate revenue into 16 weeks — and free the other 36 for the rest of your life. TTU gives you the calendar to make that structural instead of accidental.

With More Margin?
"I did not find more hours in the day. I built a firm that runs without me. That is the difference between a job and a business — and it is the difference TTU installs into every preparer who enrolls."
— Cortney Rose, Founder of Tax Time University
