SEMINAR #1: Make Profit Your Primary Goal for Year-End Planning
Join author and international speaker Greg Crabtree for a fresh and informative take on year-end planning, in the form of a free online webinar on Wednesday, November 28th, at 10am PST.
Many businesses become too tax-focused in their year-end planning. This webinar will teach you a new planning approach to focus on profits and cash flow, then taxes. Key elements to be discussed are:
1. Labor efficiency is the key to profitability – Are your employees working with the right tools?
2. Capital Equipment upgrades – Buying new equipment is not always about taking Section 179 depreciation. Learn when taking the expensing election is a benefit or a trap.
3. Finance or pay cash for system upgrades? – I am not a fan of debt, but it can make sense when the payment matches the useful life of the equipment.
4. Avoid tax strategies that suck cash needed for upgrades – Making maximum retirement planning contributions sounds good until you see how much cash it takes out of your business. Keeping your business healthy may be your best choice for retirement!
