Small Business

Deciding upon whether or not to incorporate your business can be nerve-wracking. Even if you've done your research and understand what it means to incorporate your business, you may still be unsure about moving forward.

Perhaps no two questions spark more debate and conflicting answers between accountants, attorneys, and financial planners than, “Should I incorporate?” and “When does it become worth it to incorporate?”

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.

Employees are the backbone of your organization. If you’re like most employers, you’d love the opportunity to do more for the employees that already do so much for you. Offering a robust benefits plan to your employees is the perfect way to do this.

When was the last time you heard about a data breach or saw identity theft scroll across your screen as a headline? Probably way too recently. For me, it was just this evening on the news, another somber sounding anchor reporting on why consumers should be careful about giving out credit card information online.
