“We believe clarity is the operating standard that protects growth.”
– Anisha Bailey, EA, MSEL | Founder & CEO, Taxley®
Taxley® is an Enrolled Agent-led firm built to give entrepreneurs the advantage of awareness – so clarity becomes a permanent asset, not a temporary insight. Informed leadership is the difference between momentum and control, growth and fragility, and success and preventable failure.
Our Philosophy
Most entrepreneurs are never taught how to think across the full reality of business ownership. They’re expected to make high-stakes decisions across:
– without a framework that shows how these forces interact.
Taxley is built on a simple belief: clarity across the realities of ownership and leadership produces better decisions than pressure or panic ever will.
We help entrepreneurs understand the rules of the environments they operate in, so choices are made deliberately, not reactively, and leadership stays steady whether times are calm or complex.
A Legacy in Motion
Our story is shaped by the discipline to listen, the courage to evolve, and the intention to serve where it matters most.
2008
Founded on Advocacy
Taxley® launched to advocate for entrepreneurs navigating tax and financial uncertainty. By 2012, the work sharpened into tax resolution because that’s where consequences were immediate, and steady execution mattered most.
2023
Raising the Standard
We created ApprentEA™ to develop Taxley® talent in-house through a structured apprenticeship – the first registered apprenticeship program in the Enrolled Agent profession’s 140+ year history.
2026-Present
Leading with Clarity
We launched CentsableCEO™ to strengthen decision discipline across the realities of entrepreneurship. Tax resolution remains focused execution when IRS or state exposure threatens stability.
Meet the Founder
Anisha Bailey, EA, MSEL
Anisha Bailey, a federally licensed Enrolled Agent with a Master’s in Executive Leadership, founded Taxley® after leaving her corporate tax career at Deloitte.
Over time, one pattern became undeniable: businesses rarely fail because leaders lack effort. They fail when decisions are made without visibility into how money, risk, compliance, and responsibility connect.
After nearly two decades supporting entrepreneurs – and representing clients with IRS and state tax exposure – Anisha saw the same truth repeatedly: most tax, financial, and operational problems are decision breakdowns with delayed consequences.
