After finding early success as an independent tax office owner, Mario got involved with franchising and expanded to 99 offices across the country. At that point in time, Mario realized that the way tax preparation was being done was antiquated and not efficient. He envisioned a better, more secure, and convenient CPA filing experience for consumers that is now known as Happy Tax. In 2014, Mario sold off his 99 brick and mortar tax offices and invested his payoff to create Happy Tax. Since its inception, Happy Tax has gone from a breakthrough idea, to an award winning opportunity for entrepreneurs and professionals to own a tax business without the typical startup overhead or tax management requirements.
