Did you start a small business because you wanted to get drained, exhausted and swamped in absolutely useless paperwork?
If that is not your idea of a good time, you need this book!
Hard enough to get a brand-new business start-up off the ground, there's absolutely no reason for adding unnecessary problems.
Yet - that's precisely what many new starters in America are doing. In an ocean of misinformation and a whirlwind of advice from people who never have run their own business, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and take the (presumably) easiest route. ...just get me through this, right?
Alas, this is the mistake many predators are just waiting for.
You, however, don't have to fall prey.
Undercover knowledge about business credit and credit cards; what you should not do, and what you should do. Get to see your business with completely new eyes! What specifically can you get out of this book? You will know how to break the stranglehold of SE-Tax (self-employment tax).
You will know whether you should incorporate an s-corporation or c-corporation - or neither.
You will know the difference between S-Corp, C-Corp and LLC. You will review the 3 criteria every business structure needs to measure against - and which limited liability company will work for you.
You can get a grasp of the 4 types of taxation, among which you can choose. Really, that is a choice!
You will be able to spot the cardinal sins of young businesses - and how not to be among the failing 95%.
Always wondered how to incorporate a limited liability corporation? You'll be surprised to learn that there is no such thing!
Whether you are just toying with the idea of self-employment or you already have started your small business: this book is a must-read if you are serious about saving big on taxes and protecting the fruits of your work!
