Champion Tax Relief — Vivid Vision
Our Goal by 2029
The absolute #1 company for small business owners to resolve their IRS back tax
problems.
Recognized as the #1 leader in solving business owners’ back tax problems — by the
accounting profession and by our clients.
Who We Serve
While most tax resolution companies service the mass market in a cookie-cutter way, our firm
services only the most complex IRS back tax problems — specifically for self-employed people
and small business owners.
Most of our clients owe a minimum of $100,000 in back taxes, haven’t filed in years (often with
no records to file with), and the IRS is knocking at their door. Clients come to us because we are
so specialized — and because we deliver results others simply can’t.
The work we do directly impacts people’s livelihoods. It protects their finances, their businesses,
their marriages, and gives them a newfound path forward that has eluded them for years.

Our Culture

• Work hard, enjoy it while we do.
• People feel respected working here — their opinions matter. We aren’t looking for “yes men.”
• A-player only environment. If you can make things happen on your own, you’re a great fit.
• We strongly value our employees. How we treat our team directly relates to the results we bring to clients.
• Self-motivated, entrepreneurial individuals who want greater responsibility and autonomy —and who can self-manage.
• The company runs autonomously — systems and personnel so solid that everything gets done, right, the first time.
• Excellent systems. We’ve been around the block, and we know exactly what’s needed to deliver for our clients.

Code word: Apricot

Core Values

• Entrepreneurial Attitude — We solve problems, figure out how to make things better, and
• take joy in continuous improvement.
• Self-Managed — We get stuff done without needing someone to keep on top of us.
• Excellent in Our Work — We are mindful of the great trust our clients place in us, and we
• do a great job for them.
• Grow Big, Act Small
• Respect Everyone
• Have Fun
