Small Business Services

The E-Myth accurately describes where small businesses flounder:
the ability to deliver the service and inability to run a business.

Michael E.Gerber, author of E-Myth, coined the phrase "work on the
business and not in the business."

ProActive Tax Solutions has taken this phrase to heart. We work
on your business for you so that you can continue to work in your business.

Start a conversation today with PATS regarding "on" services.

Should I be an LLC?

LLCs, Corporations, and Sole Proprietorships all have advantages from a tax planning perspective. The only way to determine which one is for you is to match the tax benefits to your business type and ownership.

What can I do to take more of my "bottom line" home?

Actually, small business owners are the best candidates for tax planning strategies. The tax courts have held that there is nothing illegal or sinister for tax payers to arrange their affairs so that they pay the lowest tax legally available. PATS' tax saving strategies are tested and proven to prevail under audit. We will help you create documentation and a good business reason for your expenses in order to use the full breadth of the tax court decisions.

I can't seem to "work on my business." I am focusing on getting the job done.

This is a dilemma for most small businesses, and PATS provides services that support the "work on the business." Such services include goal setting and monitoring. Quarterly reviewing of the goals
actually keeps the goals in the forefront as well as allowing for modifications or even redirection. After-the-fact bookkeeping can be provided monthly or quarterly to facilitate these reviews and provide financial statements and year-to-date budget to actuals, if there is not an in-house system.

I feel like I am working harder and making less money. I am close to burnout.

Taking a step back and reviewing where the business has been and where it is now can be a curative step for burnout. Small business owners are working longer hours, providing the services and running the business-side of the business. Historical perspectives have the potential to offer answers to why less money is being made, changes in costs, etc. Using the PATS small business services for analysis and strategic planning may turn your situation around.

Bringing clarity and focus to your finances is part of our job!
