Everyone faces obstacles in life. How we react to them is the difference between progress and stagnation. For Karlton Dennis, he has always persevered in the face of adversity, letting no obstacle get in the way of a life of success.
Karlton may be America’s Tax Alchemist today, but he started down a much different path. He graduated college with a degree in Kinesiology on a football scholarship, when he started pursuing a life of entrepreneurship. After he graduated, Karlton started his own fitness brand, but he was overworked, and going nowhere. After seeking tax advice from his mom, Karlton realized he had actually stumbled upon his passion. So, he got licensed and joined his mom as a co-owner of Karla Dennis and Associates.
As a tax strategist, Karlton realized there was a severe lack of tax education available for the average person. On top of that, no tax advisors were taking advantage of social media to reach their audience. Karlton knew he could fill that gap and has helped more than 3,000 small business owners save money and has gained over 150k subscribers on YouTube. “I experienced many fumbles in life before becoming the MVP of my industry. While chasing financial success, the realization finally occurred to me that the answer was right under my nose the whole time,” says Karlton Dennis.
For Karlton, his primary focus is always to problem solve for his customers. He knows that the better he is at listening, the faster he becomes at offering solutions. “I teach what I’ve done to help thousands of celebrities, professional athletes, business owners, and real estate investors save over 75 million dollars in taxes because I know how taxes can be a burden if not used to one’s advantage,” says Karlton Dennis.
As a serial entrepreneur, Karlton doesn’t let setbacks get in his way. He perseveres through adversity and sees fear as an indicator that he is headed in a direction of growth.
