Small Business

Starting your own business is not an easy task. It comes with many challenges and obstacles, preventing many people from even trying it. For those who do set up their own shop and make a go of it alone, there can also be many benefits. Paying fewer income taxes is one of the most powerful.

Tax season is in full swing again and I often get asked how long business owners should retain their tax and business records. Unfortunately, there is no hard and fast answer to this question.

Year-end is quite possibly the most hectic time for small business owners. It’s a time of measuring how the business did the previous year and planning for the one ahead. In the midst of that, don’t forget you should also be making year-end tax moves to help reduce your tax bill to end the year as fiscally responsible as you possibly can.

It’s that time of year again! The days are shorter but that doesn’t mean there is any less to get done. As the end of the year quickly approaches, I wanted to take the time to share with you a bit of advice I give each of my clients this time every year.

I sometimes find myself in conversations with clients who tell me how important it is for their personal information, including their finances, to be protected. As business owners, you have even more on the line than individuals.
