She also pioneered business solutions that would later become known as Advisory. \nJody brings her expertise in AI and automation to her latest endeavor as head of tax strategy and evangelism at the recently launched company named APRIL.\n \nHighlights:\n— “April is a new technology company designed to disrupt the tax space. We're creating tax software that's going to be distributed through banks.”\n— “I don't think our software is ever going to replace the value of an accounting professional.” \n— “CPAs need to be aware that their job is going to change in the near future. So they have to figure out who they want to serve, how they want to serve them and how they can put the human back to serving them.”\n— “You have to figure out the value you're delivering and how you help your clients understand that there is value in what you're delivering because otherwise, they could just go to an automated service.”\n— “Accounting is ripe for automation because nobody's done anything in it in the last 50 years.” \n\n***Want one piece of business strategy delivered daily to your inbox?***\nSubscribe here: https://www.shethinksbigcoaching.com/subscribe-main-list\n\nConnect with JODI:\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jody-padar-18a9711/\n \nAbout April:\nhttps://www.getapril.com/\n https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6889238594121158657/","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/AZFvbY29RNsC20PTchqbqXsFoNMjM1040wmYivreg-g/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9lZmE1/ODU2OWRkNzA4ZDQ2/ODg2YmEwYjYzNmEw/NjkzNC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
