Educational Tax Tip: How to Add to an IRS Installment Agreement
Do you know what to do if you already have a payment plan with the IRS but owe more taxes? Since you can’t have two active plans at once, you must amend your existing agreement to include the new balance. The IRS offers different ways to do this, like online, by calling them, or by visiting a local IRS office and submitting Form 9465. If you can’t afford the new monthly payment, you may need to file Form 433-F, which could open the door to other solutions like an Offer in Compromise. Need help updating
How Business Storytelling Shapes Belief
Every good business knows the mechanics of metrics. But belief—the sort that fuels decisions, inspires commitment, or draws in money—doesn’t live in spreadsheets. It lives in stories. Not the stiff, templated narratives tucked into pitch decks, but the kind that move with intention, surprise, and authenticity. Whether the goal is to motivate employees, win over investors, or earn a client’s trust, the difference between a forgotten message and a lasting one often lies in the way it’s told. Reframing the
Educational Tax Tip: Understanding IRS Notice CP12
Do you know what to do if the IRS sends you a CP12 notice? This notice means the IRS corrected your return, resulting in a different refund amount—usually an increase! The notice will include a summary of changes and a comparison of your original return with the IRS's revised figures. If you agree with the changes, no action is needed, and you’ll receive your updated refund within 4 to 6 weeks. If you disagree, you must respond with documentation within 60 days to preserve your right to appeal. Received

Educational Tax Tip: Which IRS Forms Are Eligible for FTA Penalty Relief?
Did you know that First-Time Penalty Abatement (FTA) isn’t available for every type of tax form? The IRS only allows FTA for failure-to-file, failure-to-pay, or failure-to-deposit penalties on certain returns. Some of the most common forms include Form 1040 (individual), 1120 (corporation), 1120S (S-corp), 1065 (partnership), 941 (payroll), and 940 (unemployment).

Every ambitious founder walks into the arena of entrepreneurship with a blend of confidence and calculated optimism. Ideas get polished, decks get rehearsed, and capital becomes the finish line — but risk, the ever-present variable, rarely gets the same meticulous attention.

For founders navigating their first venture or their fifth, understanding risk isn't about fear — it's about
Educational Tax Tip: Protect Your Business with Proper Tax Documentation.
Do you know which records you should keep for your business in case of an audit? The IRS requires business owners to maintain accurate records that clearly show income, expenses, assets, and employment taxes. This includes receipts, invoices, canceled checks, deposit slips, payroll records, and documentation of purchases and sales. Whether you use paper or electronic systems, your records must support the information on your tax return. Organized documentation not only helps you comply with tax laws—it
Educational Tax Tip: When Innocent Spouse Relief Doesn’t Apply
Have you ever wondered what would make someone ineligible for Innocent Spouse Relief? The IRS would reject your request if you knew—or reasonably should have known—about the tax errors when you signed the return. You're also ineligible if you miss the two-year deadline after receiving a notice or if you've already settled the issue through an offer in compromise, a closing agreement, or a court. Innocent Spouse Relief can be a valuable option, but strict rules apply. Need help determining if you qualify?

Educational Tax Tip: Managing IRS Payment Plans
Have you ever wondered if you can have more than one payment plan with the IRS? The answer is no—typically, the IRS doesn’t allow multiple installment agreements at the same time. Instead, they may let you consolidate all your tax debts into one agreement or approve a step-by-step payment arrangement. To qualify, you must show a genuine effort to pay and prove financial hardship. Defaulting on any agreement could lead to collection actions and ongoing penalties. Need help negotiating a payment plan that
Educational Tax Tip: Understand the Different Types of Tax Levies
Have you ever heard about the different kinds of tax levies the IRS or state agencies can impose? Depending on your situation, the IRS or state can seize wages, bank funds, property, or even business assets to collect unpaid taxes. For example, a property tax levy can affect your real estate, while an income tax levy might lead to wage garnishments or bank account seizures. Businesses can also face sales tax or business tax levies that put operations and assets at risk. Each type carries serious
Stamped and Delivered: Why Direct Mail Still Wins in a Digital Age
Direct mail has long been the underdog of modern marketing—dismissed as outdated in favor of inboxes and algorithms. But even as businesses pour money into online ads and SEO strategies, the simple act of sending a well-crafted piece of physical mail is proving to be one of the most effective tools for reaching customers. There’s something visceral about holding a tangible message, one that doesn’t get lost in a sea of browser tabs or spam folders. And for businesses willing to think beyond clicks and
