One of the biggest mistakes I see new entrepreneurs make is that they start building their businesses in financial quicksand. I’m joined by fractional CFO and tax strategist Shannon Weinstein to break down how to set yourself up for success from day one.    I ask Shannon about everything from writing off phone bills and meals to how to find the right tax professional. We also talk about how she decided to go all-in on her brand, Keep What You Earn, and what inspired her brilliant approach to marketing. Don’t save this episode for Aprilーthe key to being tax savvy is proactivity and preparation.    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: The point in your business when you should seek out a tax strategist or fractional CFO  Red flags to look out for when you’re talking with an accountant or tax strategist  Common misconceptions about tax write-offs and deductions  What the Augusta Rule is and how to take advantage of it  Shannon’s strategy of giving away information, but charging for implementation  What you can expect to learn in the Business Financial Quickstarter    RESOURCES Use Code CHRIS for $50 off Business Financial Quickstarter: keepwhatyouearn.com/chris  Text DAILY to 310-421-0416 to get daily Money Mantras or Business Perspective messages to boost your day.     CONNECT WITH SHANNON Follow Shannon: @shannonkweinstein  Learn more about Keep What You Earn: keepwhatyouearn.com  Listen to Keep What You Earn     CONNECT WITH CHRIS Follow Me: @chriswharder Visit My Website: https://chrisharder.me
