Neel Roberts - Click Here To Read Neel's Articles - Neel Roberts, President and Founder of PTC
Canada took his first accounting course at
age 15. During a high school night course
that same year, he completed his first tax
return, which opened the world of income
taxes to him. He completed all of the
accounting courses he could in high school
before entering York University in Toronto
to major in Economics.
Roberts used a “customer first” approach
learned in previous companies such as
FedEx to launch PTC Canada in 1998.
Shortly after Roberts first ad campaign he
realized that business didn’t stop after
tax season. Tripling his sales with “late
filers” Roberts realized the huge number
of individuals and small businesses who
needed his help after tax deadlines.
Roberts is one of only a few experts who
specialize in late tax filers for
individuals and small businesses. As of
2004, PTC Canada serves over 1,000 tax
payers and clients all over the world.
Roberts’ “hands on” approach to working
for the client is reflective in his work
ethic.

Dr. John W. Stolk - Click Here To Read Dr. John W.'s Articles - What is the difference between Consultants
and Counsellors?
The clearest distinction between
Consultants and Counsellors is that
Consultants 'think, recommend and vision'
whilst Counsellors typically 'analyze,
think, recommend, vision, act, teach and
guide implementation'. Consultants are on
the ‘outside’ working in an advisory
capacity only; whereas a Counsellor is
first on the ‘outside’ using the Business
Physical to analyze and then guide on the
‘inside’. A Counsellor is a cross of
advisor, teacher, mediator, coach. This
means that there is a transfer of
knowledge and skills while training you.
We like teaching how to fish instead of
like a consultant who wants to fish for
you.
Based on the unbiased analysis they have
the ability to select the best course of
action and the time and energy to guide
the implementation. The Counsellor will
become a part of your advisory team and
fully engaged as your advisor, teacher,
mediator, whereas a Consultant will also
have a responsibility to the firm who
placed them. Many of our clients keep us
on retainer even after the whole process
is completed, like a business doctor.
