Most of us just want someone else to sort our tax returns without us having to think about it, but tax experts are kind of expensive, right? You'd think in the digital age there would be a better way.


That's the problem that TaxScouts co-founder Tram Abramov set out to solve and it seems to be working. Along the way he's faced some highly relatable business challenges and made an excellent, though unintended, contribution to women's empowerment.


In the end though, as he tells us, even though he runs a tech business, the most important place for him to focus is always on the people.


Tram gives us some tips for making taxes less stressful whether you use TaxScouts or DIY.
