Why Tax Planning Is Important

You have a lot on your plate if you run a business (or businesses!). You're responsible for ensuring your organization is running smoothly, which often includes wearing many hats. One task that is easy to let slip when you’re in the middle of it all is planning, especially tax planning. Since it is not a fire that needs to be put out, it usually gets put on the back burner. However, skipping tax planning is an invisible hurt for a business. It’s money you don’t know you're leaving on the table.

What is Tax Planning?

Tax planning at the highest level is understanding what your tax liability could be and how to optimize your liability through the development of a tax plan. This could mean minimizing your tax liability by organizing your finances, or it may involve making changes to your business to take advantage of deductions and credits you could be entitled to.
