About Our Guest:
Steven Jarvis, CPA, is the CEO and Head CPA at Retirement Tax Services, a tax firm focused on working with financial advisors. With more than a decade of experience in the accounting profession and a background in teaching, Steven recognized that most traditional CPA firms focus narrowly on tax return preparation, a model that leaves many clients exposed to unnecessary tax burdens and many advisors without the tools to address them. He offers advisors access to systems, training and partnerships that keep them in the driver’s seat while integrating tax awareness into client conversations.

As a trusted consultant and advisor to the financial professionals he serves, Jeremy is committed to helping you professionalize all aspects of your practice and unlock your full potential.
In early 2018, he identified a clear gap in service and support for advisors across the nation, and built the Advisor Mentorship Program to address and close it. One of his passions within AMP is to help advisors refine their own process and attract clients instead of chasing them.
Today, this program continues to help a select group of advisors stay focused on achieving consistent growth, while adding value to their practice and developing Business Alpha through the resources available through InsurMark.
