ETL ADVISA Berlin Steuerberatungsgesellschaft mbH

What ETL ADVISA Berlin Steuerberatungsgesellschaft mbH does

ETL ADVISA Berlin Steuerberatungsgesellschaft mbH is a Berlin-based tax advisory firm (Steuerberatungsgesellschaft) operating since at least 2008 as a member of the ETL Group, Germany's largest tax advisory network with over 970 offices nationwide and 1,470+ locations across 60+ countries. The firm is led by Managing Directors Daniel Dommenz and Anja Genz, both certified specialists in healthcare professional advisory (Fachberater für den Heilberufebereich and Fachberaterin für Gesundheitswesen). Its primary client segment is healthcare practitioners (Heilberufler) — physicians, dentists, pharmacists, ambulatory care services, nursing homes, and therapeutic providers — supplemented by additional verticals including hospitality, gas stations, franchise systems, agriculture, professional athletes, seniors, and e-commerce. The firm maintains a single Berlin office with approximately 25 employees and serves clients through direct advisory engagements.

The core service portfolio comprises traditional tax advisory, financial accounting, balance sheet preparation, payroll processing, and business consulting, augmented by specialized modules such as ETL Kassencheck (cash register compliance), branch-specific BWA reports, tax reserve calculation (Steuerrücklagenberechnung), and SteuerTimeline forecasting. Underlying technology is built around ETL Group's digital ecosystem and partner integrations rather than proprietary in-house development. Client-facing platforms include capitain (document exchange with e-invoicing and GoBD-compliant archiving), PISA (cloud-based electronic client file), eMitarbeiter (GDPR-compliant employee portal), and edtime (workforce management) — most sourced from technology partners eurodata and ETL infrastructure. The firm also connects clients to DATEV Unternehmen Online and DATEV Arbeitnehmer Online portals, and offers adjacent digital tools through partnerships with Vimcar (digital vehicle logbook) and SpenditCard (employee benefits).

Revenue is generated through recurring professional fee arrangements negotiated on an engagement basis, with monthly billing cycles and no publicly disclosed pricing. The go-to-market is sales-led, leveraging direct consulting relationships, an ETL-Gruppe website with segment-specific content, email newsletters, sector-targeted events, professional press publications (Ärztezeitung, Dental Barometer, THERA BIZ), and ETL Group social channels. Customer acquisition is further supported by cross-referrals within the ETL Group's 970+ office network and a cooperative arrangement with ETL Rechtsanwälte for integrated legal advisory. The firm reports no public revenue figures, and ownership details beyond its affiliation with the ETL-Gruppe are not disclosed.
