$51,127 tax horror story.


My friend just got off the phone with a business owner who had been with his CPA for 23 years. 

And this owner had nothing but nice things to say about their CPA, he was ‘great’ and a ‘nice guy’. 

But in just a 30-minute conversation, he learned that he was on track to overpay $51,127 this year! 

Now, this business owner has been at this income level for the last 15 years.

So if you do the math, $51,127 x 15 years.

That means he had overpaid the IRS an extra $766,905 that he didn’t need to. 

I talk with business owners like this EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. 

And look, your tax preparer is probably a ‘great person’. 

But they aren’t great at tax planning and saving you money. 

Your accountant should be reviewing each of these key areas of your business: 

  • Retirement
  • Deductions
  • Credits
  • Niche-specific strategies
  • Tax Cuts & Jobs Act Updates
  • OBBB Updates

Think about it, what would your business do with an extra $766,905?

Probably a lot more than the IRS would!!
