Newark, July 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Brainy Insights estimates that the USD 601.25 million in 2023 global tax preparation franchise market will reach USD 1202.80 million by 2033. There is an increasing market for virtual tax preparation services due to the increased use of new advanced technologies and trends that support remote work strategies. Further, to maximize the opportunity of virtual tax preparation services, franchises may have to adapt to working remotely, providing services such as online tax submission, business consulting, and document sharing, accommodating the client’s need for a flexible experience. Secondly, more specific services related to taxation are in high demand, as well as the services to order for particular clients or certain sectors of the economy. This aspect is advantageous for franchises because they can target specialized audiences like self-employed/business owners, international workers, seniors & wealthy customers.

As such, they can also provide tax services like planning for taxes, tax compliance and advisory based on their peculiar need. Further, the provision of tax preparation in combination with the solutions of the existing financial planning franchises is also an opportunity for methods to be used. Due to affiliations and partnerships, franchise services may be extended to retirement planning, investments, estate and wealth management, all under one firm. In addition to literal abbreviations, incumbents in emerging markets remain largely unexplored opportunities for tax preparation franchises to internationalize. New opportunities for franchises exist in Asia, Latin America, Africa and other countries with a growing economy and an increasing number of middle-income consumers who are required to be more tax-compliant than before. Hence, franchises can enter these markets and provide opportunities for franchisees. Additionally, there is growing importance placed on diversity and multiculturalism in franchising, with an increasing number of franchisors consciously seeking to establish themselves as diverse and inclusive in their search for new franchisees. This aspect is particularly important for franchises, as recruiting a diverse group of franchisees will ensure that they reach out to more markets and, thus, more customers and help them create effective differentiation strategies.

Key Insight of the global Tax Preparation Franchise market

Asia Pacific is expected to witness the highest market growth over the forecast period.

This region is expanding at a huge economic growth catalyzed by progressing disposable income, growing population base in urban areas and entrepreneurship. Market leaders and key economies also require professional tax advisory services due to increasing wealth creation and subsequent taxation compliance, which will further fuel the market expansion. Secondly, there is a growing middle-class population in several emerging economies, including China, India, and most Southeast Asian countries, and this has paved the way for enhanced tax compliance, hence, more need for professional tax consultants and preparers. The increased income per capita and increased quality of life for customers also affect the growth of the regional tax preparation franchises' consumption. Besides that, as several economies in the Asia Pacific region evolve, their tax codes and legislations are complicated. People require assistance regarding their taxes, which creates a large demand for professional preparation of these taxes offered in franchises. However, it is relevant to acknowledge that numerous national governments in the Asia Pacific region constantly adapt and develop their tax policies and measures to improve their tax capacity and ability. It involves activities aimed at enhancing compliance with tax systems, rationalizing the tax systems, enforcing policies that address tax avoidance, and opening the market to deliver tax aid franchises to affected individuals. In addition, the Asia Pacific sector is characterized by the highest enthusiasm for undertaking activities and an impressive increase in start-ups and SMEs. Many such businesses need the specialized support function of an in-house tax professional and would rather outsource this service to franchise-specific tax service businesses. This aspect opens up a great potential for increasing franchised tax preparation services to meet demand in the growing untapped market.

Report Scope and Segmentation –

Advancement in market

In November 2023: While participating in the company’s Frontline Forum, the general session that was held online, the leaders of H&R Block introduced their Featured Franchisees of the Year. This honour is conferred each year to franchisees who demonstrate strong business operations and who are passionate about being change agents of the company’s brand transformation.

Market Dynamics

Driver: Brand recognition.

Those who have been in the market for a long time and those who provide services in the capacity of a franchise already have a significantly stronger sense of identity. This recognition is an excellent pull factor as it guides clients in focusing on credible and quality services that offer their financial services. These brands also have credibility and trust, significantly impacting facets such as the acquisition-consumer relationship for new clients. Clients are comfortable going to a financial consultant knowing they are dealing with a professional from a reputable franchise organization with a track record of good and efficient service. Furthermore, these franchises have strong brand awareness, thus portraying this conception of a strong market wherein these franchises can easily capture the attention of potential clients. Hence, this brand equity tends to put this brand in a better position than the other brands since, in sensitive issues such as preparing tax returns, the clients always tend to go for the name they have heard the most. Furthermore, it is crucial to remember brand recognition for traditional tax preparation franchises since this aspect is essential in maintaining the business and attracting new customers.

Restraint: Rising operating costs.

High operating costs, which include rent, utility bills, insurance, and other expenses, become a significant challenge to tax preparation franchises. In the natural course of events, these rising costs chip away at margins and make it more and more difficult for franchises to remain commercially plausible. Every increase in overhead costs has put pressure and stress on the bottom line of such businesses. The increase in expenses over the years requires special attention regarding finances, not adversely impacting the franchisees' financial returns. These emerging costs put tremendous pressure on franchise owners to learn how to manage these costs effectively through proper planning and the use of resources. The inability to reverse rising costs may act as a source of pressure and threaten the franchise's losses.

Opportunity: Targeting niche markets.

The issue of specialized segments of clients, for instance, self-employed, small, business, expatriate or retired segment, provides tax preparation franchises with an opportunity to formulate specific services and marketing strategies that can address the different niches in the market, thus filling unique tax needs. This aspect is more so with tax preparation franchises since they can easily address these groups' needs and issues by adopting niche market specialization. For instance, freelance workers may require help with various legal issues, including compounding the complicated amount of tax deductions and handling the quarterly tax payments. At the same time, small businesses will want assistance in structuring their taxes better and taking better care of when to file and what to pay. These claims were informed by the proposition that specialization in meeting the customization needs of specialized markets works to differentiate tax preparation franchises and place them in a strategic position to attract suitors who seek specialized services. Furthermore, as franchisees discern the complexities of each demographic, marketing appeals can be tailored to the audiences, meaning they can relay the value proposition of franchises to clients rapidly. For instance, marketing to expatriates may focus on output involving mastery of international taxation and help report income from abroad. In contrast, for retirees, the output can focus on the services useful in explaining the tax handling of funds from retirement accounts and pensions. Since all these franchises specialize in taxes, they can better understand the area of speciality customer needs, make efforts, and improve client relations, increasing customer satisfaction and, therefore, their business. This strategy also helps franchisees expand their market share by making the most available opportunities within targeted demographics to develop and gain a competitive edge within the tax preparation services industries.

Challenge: Cybersecurity risks.

Protecting client data is crucial, especially in today’s information technology-driven society for tax preparation franchises. These businesses are an obsession of hackers since they are likely to provide them with sensitive confidential and financial data such as social security numbers, bank details, and income statements. A data breach not only leads to the loss of customers’ data, their identity, and money but also erodes the reputation and credibility of the franchise. Inability disposes tax-preparing franchises to regulatory penalties and legal risks besides annihilating customers’ trust and confidence. The jealousy of market share and competition has heightened, making it crucial for tax preparation and computation business establishments to adhere to the highest standards of client data authenticity and security to ensure endurance and growth.
