The Aspiring Solopreneur

Ever feel like taxes are the ultimate entrepreneurial riddle you're never quite sure you've solved?

Every form you have to complete and every deduction you have to consider can leave you wondering if you're doing everything correctly.

Taxes and bookkeeping are hard to understand, especially when you’re busy running the rest of your business.

That’s why we invited on Melissa and Eric Broughton of Busy Bee Advisors. With over 20 years of combined bookkeeping and tax experience, this duo helps solopreneurs and small businesses gain more financial clarity and pay less in taxes.

We were shocked throughout this episode and our jaws hit the floor a couple of times. We learned some valuable information we had never heard before that is so beneficial to one-person business owners.

During the episode, we discussed things like:

  • Melissa and Eric's New Business Start-up Checklist for Bookkeeping & Taxes
  • The $12,000 Tax Loophole
  • Why the Tax System is Rigged & What You Can Do About It
  • 5 Essential Questions You Should Be Asking Your Tax Preparer

Plus so much more! Be sure to tune in.

Being a solopreneur is awesome but it’s not easy. It's hard to get noticed. Most business advice is for bigger companies, and you're all alone...until now. LifeStarr Intro gives you free education, community, and tools to build a thriving one-person business. So, if you are lacking direction, having a hard time generating leads, or are having trouble keeping up with everything you have to do, or even just lonely running a company of one, be sure to check out LifeStarr Intro!
