Five Critical Facts About Business Growth is a video blog post from Chad over at Bordeaux and Bordeaux in Charlotte North Carolina. I haven’t posted much from his blog but that’s because I am to lazy to watch so I can’t really say if they are worth watching or not. However I did watch this one and every business owner needs to watch this one. He discusses the following five facts about business growth:

  1. There is no such thing as a mature business or market.
  2. Not all growth is good growth.  Some growth can be disastrous for your Company.
  3. Growth is a mentality – created by the leaders within a Company
  4. Balance growth is the key to long-term prosperity.
  5. Growing your business is much less risky than NOT growing your business.

If the rest of his video posts are like this I have been missing some things. Keep up the great work my friend.

How Would the Expiration of the 2001 and 2003 Tax Cuts Affect Individual Taxpayers? With just a week left before Congress leaves town for the August recess, the fate of the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts is up in the air.

Last week I wrote About The Three Most Common Payroll Tax Mistakes and I shared one of my reasons and thought process as to why I have started writing about non-tax stuff. Truth is as the non-tax stuff goes, the bookkeeping is very important for your taxes. The IRS even tells you in Publication 583 (1/2007), Starting a Business and Keeping Records “Except in a few cases, the law does not require any specific kind of records. You can choose any recordkeeping system suited to your business that clearly shows your income and expenses.” As I read the second sentence or even interrupt it, the IRS is saying to you (business owners), it doesn’t matter if you use QuickBooks, Peachtree, or even Microsoft Office Accounting (before it was discontinued), but you need something “that clearly shows your income and expenses.”  I promote QuickBooks because it is in my opinion, with over 12 years as a self-employed tax accountant, that QuickBooks is the best suited for those who keep their own books.
