    Which is Better for Tax Write-offs: LLC or Sole Proprietorship?

    Which is Better for Tax Write-offs: LLC or Sole Proprietorship?

    Let’s dive into why an LLC is generally more beneficial for tax write-offs than a sole proprietorship.

    Why Choose an LLC?
    Liability Protection: Safeguard your assets.
    Tax Flexibility: Benefit from options like S Corp election.
    Business Credibility: Enhance your branding and build business credit.

    Both structures allow you to deduct business expenses, but LLC offers extra perks that can significantly boost your tax strategy and overall business growth.

    5 Things your Kids can Do to LOWER your INCOME TAXES

    5 Things your Kids can Do to LOWER your INCOME TAXES

    As a business owner, you can lower your income taxes by employing your minor children. Here are 5 practical ways to integrate your kids into your business:

    1. Wash Company Vehicles: Instead of paying for a car service, hire your kids to clean your business vehicles inside and out. This will teach them the value of hard work and save you money.

    2. Clean the Office: Have your children take on tasks like taking out the trash, wiping down surfaces, and even shampooing carpets quarterly. Even if you have a cleaning crew, more must be done.

    3. Social Media Assistance: Get your kids involved in your social media strategy. They can compile stats, create thumbnails, and research topics, helping you maintain a strong online presence.

    4. NIL Deals: Use your children’s name, image, and likeness in your marketing materials. Featuring them on your website and social media can be effective and legal.

    5. Transcribing Content: Older kids can transcribe your videos and other content. This adds valuable text to your website, boosting your SEO and making your content more accessible.

    Before implementing these strategies, consult with a tax professional to ensure compliance. Done correctly, employing your kids can be a win-win for your family and your business.

    At Big Bird Accounting, we do bookkeeping, and we do it well.
