Assisting Small Business from A to Z — NEW!

$204

|
8 CPE Credits | 1 Day | Taxes | Basic
This course will cover the taxation, form of legal entity, capitalization, and other considerations necessary to advise small business clients. With the U.S. economy in deep recession and the eventual anemic economic growth that is expected to last for years, it's predicted that more small businesses will fail at record numbers and new small business start-ups will accelerate at a record pace. The simple truth is that large U.S. companies are not hiring and the outsourcing trend to foreign countries will continue. The growth driver in the U.S. for the past several years, the small business, will continue to need expert advice now more than ever. It's time for you to hear and understand how to get your share of this business! |
