FAQ

Q. Will the sessions be recorded?

A. Yes.  You can watch the recordings for a limited time, expiring 1 month after the close of the third session.

Q. What about my specific information?

A. All attendees will be asked to agree to a 'what's said here stays here' policy.  That said, I can't police what people do with what they've heard.  So, please use your discretion when sharing private information with the group.

​Q. Can I send questions ahead of time?

A. Yes, please do!  Each of the three sessions will have a specific agenda, and I will answer questions with whatever time we have left.  Often, I can incorporate your questions into the agenda topics if I know them ahead of time.

If your question is super specific or requires an in-depth response, we may not be able to fit in the class time.  In that case, I'll suggest follow-up 1:1 consulting services with me.

Q. Who will get the most out of this workshop series?

A.  Freelancers, consultants, gig workers, independent contractors, self-employed folks, solopreneurs, single-owner LLC owners, individuals with business licenses, and sole proprietors! 

 

Maybe you are a therapist, or a designer. 

Maybe you are a yoga instructor, or a professional coach. 

Maybe you are an artist, or a house cleaner. 

 

In other words, if you're out on your own, doing your thing, you belong here!​

Q.  Will you teach us aggressive tax avoidance tricks?

A. Nope.  I share information and guidance about how to keep your tax bill as low as it can be within the scope of everyday tax law.

Q. I already have an accountant - it this still for me?

A. Yep! This workshop is designed to help you understand your own business and taxes. Many participants will continue working with their own accountant while using this information to ask better questions and make better decisions.
