Save Money On Income Taxes With A QuickBooks Tune-Up

Posted by Randal DeHart on Fri, Nov 11, 2011

Your Income Tax Preparer - Is paid to fill out the tax forms and could not care less if you are paying too much in taxes because your QuickBooks file is a mess.

Sometimes They Will - Say something to you about how much easier it would be for them if your bookkeeping was in order and all the entries were in the right accounts where they belong.

Having Just Spent - A twelve hour day beginning at four in the morning working on a loud, dirty, dangerous construction site arguing with your employee, suppliers, trade contractors and attempting to get your client to sign a change order that is holding up the project you see this so-in-so sitting in a comfy chair, inside his climate controlled environment, cool in the summer and warm in the winter, with easy access to a kitchenette, restroom, good lighting, coffee and snacks banging away on a keyboard getting a blister on his thumb!

And All You Heard Was - Blah, Blah, Blah why don't you spend some of your valuable free time or pay somebody to clean up your QuickBooks file because that would certainly make my job easier and that is when you remember this article.

Most Income Tax Preparers - Are good people but they are not detectives and they learn real quick there is more money to be made by doing ten tax returns where their clients may have overpaid the taxes than there is in helping one client tune-up a QuickBooks file.

We Hear From - A lot from income tax preparers how if the construction business owners would simply come to us and get their QuickBooks cleaned up in most cases they save enough in taxes to pay for our services and keep hundreds and in some cases thousands of dollars in their pocket.

We Do Not Prepare - Income tax returns because we believe you are better served with a "Trust But Verify" approach to running your business where you have your own personal Board of Advisors and each one is a specialist in their profession. We can assist you with setting this up.

We Focus - What we do best which is construction bookkeeping and accounting and business process development (BPM) for small niche construction companies like yours. So the income tax preparers understand we are not competition, instead we are their best friend and we are there to help and support them and you our construction client.

Most Income Tax Preparers - Love our work and will tell us privately and in confidence how much they appreciate when they prepare a return for a client that we are doing the bookkeeping for on a regular monthly basis.

The Really Great Part- Is we send a copy of the QuickBooks file to your income tax preparer, as long as you give permission and when the return is finished they send the adjusting Journal Entries back to us and we put them into your QuickBooks file. The entire process is handled with your permission and without you having to coordinate and act as go-between to get you annual income tax return prepared which saves you a lot of time and aggravation.
