Small Business Strategies

Simple Tax Strategies

There are two very simple tax strategies that can save you $1,000s!  Yet your accountant hasn't told you about them. They are simple to understand and easy to implement. Everyone should be using these strategies, but sadly, most aren't.;

Your Operating Agreement

Your operating agreement is doing three things that you don't want!

  1.  It's forcing you to pay taxes you don't need to pay.
  2.  It's inviting an IRS audit (and giving them reasons to collect!)
  3.  It folds like yesterday's newspaper in litigation.

Board of Advisors

Optional in every state, Boards of Advisors are overlooked and often ignored by most small business owners.  This critical mistake costs owners money year after year, increases vulnerability in lawsuits and invites IRS scrutiny.  Fifteen minutes to a half hour once a monthcan put $10,000 to $15,000 (or more) in your pocket.

Tax-Free Income

Your small business has the ability to generate tax-free income for you, the owner.  This surprises many business owners, that their business can immediately begin generating Tax-Free income without a Roth, without a 401K and without any retirement or health plan.

Special Note to Parents

Who pays for your son's football equipment? Your daughter's dance lessons? Gymnastics? Musical instruments? Tutoring? Summer programs? (Silly question, I know). But here's the real question: Are you deducting any or all of these? And if not, WHY NOT?

Sound Basics Equals Big Profits

There are two rules the IRS imposes on everyone: Rule One - Taxes are due and payable on income. Rule Two - It depends.

It is absolutely necessary to pay the tax you owe. It is not necessary to send Christmas, Birthday, and Presidents' Day presents to Uncle Sam, yet that's exactly what most small businesses do.

Rule Two: "It Depends." How much tax you owe depends on many different things. When did you start your business? Are you married? Have you bought a vehicle? Do you have kids? The rules are overwhelming.

There are two, very simple, tax strategies that should be implemented when you started your business. And there's no time like the present, even if you missed them when you started. Find out now what a simple adjustment can mean to you in actual Dollars and Cents.
