And find out if you want to work with me
I am not only in the business of tax filing. I am in the business of helping your business grow. I like to start with your taxes because that's what allows me to understand the operation of your business. Then, if we both are a match and agree, we can work towards the marketing, advertising, and expansion of your business. Many businesses like mechanics, event caterers, construction workers, and other professionals think that due to the area restrictions, they think that they are not expandable. I tell you otherwise, reach in your pocket, your purse, next to you, or anywhere where your phone is. Open a browser and look at it. You have a computer next to you. This means of communication can reach people from afar and can provide valuable information that many traditional business owners have not even thought about. This may be a very interesting conversation we can have when I am not doing your taxes.
If you feel it is like a painful process due to the obligation or a complete stage of suffering due to not being very well organized with your expenses and sales, close your eyes and take a deep breath. Here is the truth: It is not your fault. No one told you that the administrative process was going to be this dreadful. You are good at what you do, and this is why you are still in business. Let me show you the process and handle your concerns. This is the reason I became a tax consultant, to be your ally for the tax season and if the IRS knocks on your door, I will be glad to answer that door for you.
If it is starting to feel more like a setup, I don't blame you. Algorithms for ads change constantly and we are at an ultimate level of competition and distrust due to the informational intense competition and the threat that artificial intelligence poses against advertisers like Google, Facebook, and Craigslist. So, what's the solution? A contrarian approach to Zig when the rest of the population Zags. I have found other means to not pour your savings to get barely any results. Let’s examine the risks in the market together and find new opportunities. Starting with your taxes is the best approach or resolving your IRS issue if you have been contacted to resolve a return.
If it is not exciting, let me help you change that because your returns tell you so much about your business. They tell you that you are not earning as much as you should, they tell you that you should be paying less taxes, or they tell you that you are right where you should be. Most people view them as an annoyance, that's because most of everyone likes to play Checkers with their business and livelihood, when they should be playing chess and getting ahead of this strategic game. Let's talk so I can shift your way of dealing with taxes and let's find strategic advantages for your business. All while complying, following the rules, and having nothing to hide. Remember that if we play by the rules, we can win by the rules as it is within those rules that exceptions and legal loopholes live. I will teach you the vast difference between tax avoidance versus tax evasion. I bet you haven't had these conversations with your tax preparer. Guess what? It is time to have them.
I don't wish struggle upon anyone. I wish awareness for everyone. If you have any sense that you could be doing better with your taxes, with your journey with the IRS, or with the expansion of your business, then you are not alone. I have been here all along ready to invite you to the journey and opportunity to understand the modern technological advantages and barriers that you may be facing. Contact me so that we can sort through the chaos and bring in order in a not so boring manner. Let's bring excitement to the table and get things done. If you are as excited about your taxes or vision of your business as visiting the dentist, then we have a problem. Let's shift that awareness. I know we can because you are in the hands of a data scientist, behaviorist, and tax consultant with an above average sense of humor. Your taxes tell such a great story about your business, let me rewrite it for you and let's turn that story into a marketing map.
Eddy helped me understand taxes and even avoid an expense I wasn't truly ready to take.
Give this guy a try. His services hold value.
I was about to blow my money on some drop shipping course. Eddy not only found some concerning information on the seller, but he also helped me see a better direction after taking the assessment.
Perhaps you have been told that time is money, but that's a lie. If that was the truth, you would have spent a fortune in medical school or going to law school. I am not trying to make fun of lawyers as I am going in that path myself. The point is that you are in business to do what you love, to spend more time enjoying life, being with those who you love and those who matter in your life. Not a million dollars can buy you a minute from the past, but it can help you hire others and automate your process for you to enjoy your freedom. The equality of one to the other is not real, but the paradox shows that the smartest idea is to not trade time for money, but rather money for time. I am getting ahead and describing the finish line. If you are not there, let’s find out about where you want to take your business and explore potential solutions, starting on with the big picture through your taxes or the resolution to your IRS case. Then we can explore the possibilities.
I bet no one has told you this format of looking at business, marketing, and how organizational skills can help you transform your business and how you deal with taxes. This could be a shift where you actually look forward to doing your taxes, but you are not restricted to the filing of your taxes for us to work together on your business journey, it can be the beginning.
First, I am licensed through the state of Oregon and admitted by the IRS to represent you if things get fussy and you end up in the waters of an audit. I can also help you reconstruct expenses and purchases when you struggle to find receipts. This does not mean cheating and lying because that's a get into jail card. This means to think like an investigator and dig into bank statements along with pictures to back your word. After all, I did almost 5 years of computer forensic investigation work in the past so I would say that I am qualified to help you efficiently in this area too.
Second, I am a licensed behavior analyst, trained in competitive analysis, particularly in the economical and marketing strategies of Michael Porter and the 5 forces that affect the business environment. I have also done over 5 years of business intelligence and data science.
In other words, I am not a tax consultant trying to be an all-expert, I am a technologist and behaviorist trying to be a tax expert. Why on earth would anyone do that? Because I have felt and seen the pain of failing with my tax strategies, which led to lost money, poor assumptions made, and dissatisfaction. I don't want anyone to go through this. I want others to profit from their skills. I can even recommend some highly rated books on tax planning strategies and marketing. I am different from others in that I hold no secrets. I think success should be openly shared.
I don't know. We can find out through a call. Perhaps a gut feeling is told you to work with me, perhaps some of what I have mentioned resonates with you, or perhaps you have become curious after going through this page. If any of these resonates, let’s work together. I am an open book, and I consider your success my success.
I have helped people in the past not only with their taxes, but with their business, and even their personal situations. I had a client who divorced and had a high level of stress dealing with the after math. He had spoken with his lawyer and a few therapists. The lawyer politely shared with him that their fiduciary relationship ended after the case closed. The therapists were giving him actionable solutions but no matter how much he tried; those actionable solutions were becoming more and more short lasting. This type of result is not typical, but he surprised me because after we figured out the roots of his obsession with his ex, he was able to finally leave this issue in the past and now his construction profession has taken him to a well recovered financial stability. He has told me that if he hadn't dealt with that, he wouldn't be where he is now.
I had another client with a child who was extremely shy and fearful of water. This one took several months, but by the time we were done, the child not only was he not fearful of water but taking swim lessons and getting involved in martial arts. Today, this child has many friends, participates in tournaments, and the parents are doing financially much better. They tell me that the situation with their son was holding them back and now that the issue is resolved, they are making much more progress with their careers.
I had another client who was excellent at earning money but would get into terrible relationships and blow it all. After exploration of her motives and conditioning, we found out that her choice of men was the reason behind her misfortune. After that realization, she met a guy who she would have never even looked at in the past and thanks to that she is now more consistent with how she spends her money and is happy in her current relationship.
Because almost every tax professional will tell you, I have saved others thousands, that they have resolved countless issues with clients facing the IRS, and blah, blah, blah. My response: That's your job. It is what you are supposed to do. Instead, I present you in my case studies, hidden issues that other professionals have neglected because "it is not their job." I call BS (Basic Selfishness) on that. If it affects your personal life, it is likely to affect your professional life. This is what I refer to when I say that I Zig when others Zag. I make it my problem because as a professional, I think it should be my problem to help you find those hidden issues so you can deal with the tax readiness side of your business better. Have you thought about that, maybe it is not that you don't have the time to get more organized or learn about taxes? Maybe the issue is that your energy is going to be an unworked matter that has been needing resolution long ago. I am here to help with that if that's something you are open to.

I hate to answer in this manner, but "it all depends." I can get really involved to the resolution of your taxes and business processes as you want me and need me too. It is all worth it because I want this experience to be beneficial and I want it to positively impact your business. As I have mentioned before, time is not equals money. Time is more valuable than money and my goal is to get you to enjoy your time and freedom while earning money and expanding your business. The best idea is to get a quote to see where your business is and how challenging or easy your taxes might be.
I hate to continue to answer in this manner, but "it all depends." Do you need to reconstruct expenses or earnings, do you have rental properties, do you have more than one business, do you have children? These all can affect the tie and cost of preparing your taxes. I don't like to make promises and then rake up a higher bill, I would rather look at your situation and then go from there. If more effort is needed, I will let you know in advance, so no surprise added bill arrives.
Because these issues affect how you do business, the quality and readiness of your work, and your overall competitive advantage in the business market. Therapists, behaviorists, and coaches usually don't speak the language of both business, habitual, and behavioral issues. Therefore, the correlation of these issues goes unaddressed. I other words, the issues continue to hinder your potential. I am here to help you resolve that and find an alignment between your personal, professional, and financial life.
Because we all have to file taxes, and it is a game we are usually not taught. It is time to help others play this game in a chess-like fashion.
No. We go through the intake questions, you send me the needed documents, and I call you only when I have questions or need clarifications.
I usually work on taxes at night and weekends. This is my side work. I do all the work remotely, so you don't have to come to me. Let's take advantage of technology.
Please do. I'd like to add more here.
