Educate and communicate confidently – represent TurboTax in your local community and take on the role of its public face with support, guidance, and resources from Intuit. Host engaging learning events, participate in local marketing efforts, and demystify taxes to make them accessible and approachable.
Build relationships – connect with people, demonstrate understanding and sensitivity to their financial concerns, and build long‑term trust that turns a one‑time transaction into a loyal, multi‑year relationship.
Deliver a best‑in‑class customer experience – create an exceptional experience, professionalism, and genuine interest in helping clients achieve their financial goals (e.g., saving for retirement, college funds, weddings, or vacations). Interact with customers both in‑person and through Intuit’s video communication tools, addressing inquiries while helping them overcome tax‑related challenges.
