We had tried to navigate a sales tax audit on our own, and it became evident very quickly we needed help – professional help. We were totally disorganized before Clarus, and the systems and processes they have put in place to ensure that we are compliant and able to audit certificates has increased our profitability, productivity, and time. The team at Clarus Partners is very professional, clear, competent, and responsive. And, the AkuCert software by Clarus has also been very helpful in quickly and automatically identifying companies who claimed to be tax exempt, but were not. Not having to worry about that is very comforting.

With Clarus Partners, you get strong experience with a personable touch. I never feel like we’re being churned out as a number. They are honest and responsive, and their willingness to help out and jump on a call anytime we need them is key for me and my team. As we underwent the unclaimed property audit, it was a lot of work, but we ended up with a good result thanks to the expertise and advice of the team at Clarus Partners.

The team at Clarus Partners is professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They give us straightforward answers to all our sales tax questions, have improved our audit situation, and most definitely help us avoid fines and penalties by the state of Texas. They are worth every penny for their consulting and tax services!
David Poskey
Chief Financial Officer, Hawk Installation and Construction
We were looking for a cost-effective partner that would provide efficiency in process, and Clarus Partners has done just that. Our productivity has increased due to a monthly sales and use tax filing process we built with Clarus. Our tax department can be more productive in their jobs and less focused on the reporting aspect. Clarus Partners has been a focused business partner for us. They are efficient in their processes, and their expertise in processing sales and use taxes has been a big advantage.

For us, Clarus Partners is a reliable, responsive business partner that gets the job done. With them, we are able to achieve our objective and come out to a successful conclusion, and we are more efficient and profitable as a result. We are able to outsource to them for a variety of sales tax needs, including conducting something similar to a reverse sales tax audit. They complete an analysis and work with the state to file the returns, which has yielded us a refund culminating to a few hundred thousand dollars over the past several years.
When we initially spoke to Clarus Partners, we felt very confident they were authorities and experts in their space, and they have continued to live up to that. They are our advocate and an expert in a space that allows us to navigate a shallow reef with a big boat, per se. They handle our tax compliance and monthly remittance with a high level of care, concern and accuracy. Clarus Partners is a firm with a strong reputation that delivers results. I’m better off by having the strong team at Clarus Partners in my court acting on my behalf!

The process was easy. Clarus needed some basic information from me. They did all the heavy lifting. And my business qualified for a substantial benefit.
Linda Motley
Owner, PS the Letter
We had hired another sales tax consultant to help us with our audit initially. The results were very lukewarm, leaving us with a six-figure liability. Our new CPA suggested we reach out to [Clarus Partners]. Even after following up with another service provider who ‘specialized’ in sales tax, [Clarus Partners] was able to decrease our audit by two-thirds.
Camille Monk
Chief Financial Officer, Legend Networking and Telecom
We were being assessed a significant amount on our sales tax audit. Clarus Partners came in and – between bringing the audit down and finding sales tax refunds – our assessment decreased over 90%.
