Whether you are just starting your business or you've been at it a while, it is vital to keep those records separate.

Not only does it give you a clearer picture of profit and loss, but it also gets you through tax season with much less stress.

This is such a confusing area for many business owners.

If you are unsure, think about how much control over how, when, and where the work is done.

There are some other aspects such as who provides or updates the equipment used that also come into play.

As freelancing becomes more and more popular since the pandemic, the IRS has really tightened their grip over the distinction between employee or contractor and may impose fines if your guess is not correct.

Sometimes things get busy and we fall behind.

As a business owner, the most common area in which to fall behind is the bookkeeping, naturally.

If you have found yourself behind and need some help catching up- or even just want someone to check over the recorded data - I do offer one-time services to assist with these scenarios.

One of the aspects of my job that I love is that I have the ability to work without being tethered to one specific location.

This week, I’ve had the pleasure of working in Maine while experiencing new sights and tasting local foods.

We live in truly remarkable times where I can be in a completely different time zone from my clients without sacrificing data collection, communication, or security (hello, VPN!)

Nobody gets excited about paying quarterlies.

One of the most common questions new business owners ask is: “My business just opened…do quarterly taxes apply to me?”

If your business has been open for 1 day and had income of $1, yes. They apply to you.

If you haven’t yet crossed a tax year to have estimated earnings for the following year, the IRS expects you to estimate what you might make in the upcoming year and pay quarterly based on that amount.

Your books should be reflective of your income/assets and expenses/liabilities to help project annual data.

If they aren’t projecting accurately with reports that make sense, I can help. Let’s connect!
