Product Review

Taxes suck, and the convoluted, technical instructions pumped out by the IRS rarely make things any better.

I know what it's like: you really just wanted to work for yourself and make a buck, but now Uncle Sam is knocking on your door, demanding his cut, piling on form after confusing form just to make sure he's gotten his due. If you had wanted to do taxes, you would have bought a green visor and dumped your personality at the nearest thrift shop. Yet you've gotten dragged into the mess anyway.

This guide can't fix everything, and it can't do your taxes for you. But it can help! The book is designed to give a clear and simple overview for small businesses just starting to get in the game, along with a number of common small business tax questions.

The content of The Back Alley Small Business Tax Guide is specifically aimed at people filing the 1040 Schedule C. Don't know that is? Don't worry. That's explained, too.
