    Jan 28 2025


    A challenge all businesses face is setting up the sales function for success. In this episode, Christopher Filipiak explores why it is critical for the Founder to master the sales process regardless of whether the plan is to hire salespeople or for the founder to continue to be the primary salesperson.

    • The core of the sales process is creating and having conversations
    • Challenges of delegating sales when the founder has not mastered it
    • The sales mindset founders need to embrace

  • #32 - Beneficial Ownership Filing Requirement Update and Preparing for Year End Tax Filings
    Jan 2 2025

    Within the past week, the Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) filing requirement was both reinstated and then suspended again, pending further legal review. Greg Reed provides an update on the current status of the BOI fiing requirement and his filing recommendations.

    Greg also provides advice on gathering documentation to make your annual income tax filings as efficient as possible and explains that while you can extend the deadline to file your tax returns, you still need to pay tax by the initial deadline to avoid penalties and interest.

    Reach Greg Reed at smartbookstax.com or greed@smartbookstax.com.
