One operator across phone, SMS, email, web, and social, for accountants and CPAs.
During tax season you can't stop a billable return to answer a new prospect, that's a $2,400 return plus an $8,900 advisory relationship gone, while forms, referral emails, and DMs pile up. Sophia handles every overflow call and message within 5 minutes, so prospects don't file elsewhere while you're heads-down.

Yes, from your tier sheet, with your guardrails. Simple 1040s quote your set price; multi-state, K-1s, international, or entity returns get: 'Once we see your documents we'll firm up the quote, here's the starting range.' She never under-quotes a complex return.
Yes. She texts Q1–Q4 estimated-payment reminders 14 days before the IRS due date, extension reminders 21 days before April 15, and a late-October year-end planning offer. Recipients are 3x more likely to start year-round advisory work.
Yes. Any IRS notice, CP letter, audit, levy, or lien is tagged urgent and routed to the preparer who filed the return, or the partner, per your rule. She captures notice type, tax year, and deadline so you pull the file first. Calm and professional, not 'we'll call back.'
