The IRS and Your Small Home Based Business
The IRS (Internal revenue Service) is a subject most don?t want to think about, but on our Webinar this past January, one of our active Members, Mark Hultgren, spilled the beans about his recent Audit and offered some very important information to everyone involved in the Home Based Business Activity and Internet marketing.
It has amazed me, for the past 5 years meeting so many here on the Internet, how few people realize the importance of operating with a Business Mindset, regardless the size and scope of your Home Based and/or Internet Commerce.
One of the most attractive advantages of a "home based Business" is
the liberal Tax advantages offered by the US Congress and the Canadian
Government to encourage the growth of such income producing activity.
But it is critical the entrepreneur treat their endeavor as a BUSINESS to qualify for these generous deductions
So many "new" and experienced entrepreneurs seem to let the mundane task of being in Business slip by. With the explosive growth on On-line Cash Flow through affiliate marketing, eBay and other E Commerce sites, the IRS has beefed up the Audit Process for On-line Entrepreneurs.
