Inside The Greenroom | AYR


Apr 29, 2021

If you are an entrepreneur, you probably don’t like doing taxes. They can be stressful, complicated, and dull. What if your taxes actually started helping you instead of hindering you?

Welcome tax strategist, international speaker, and Best Selling author Courtney Epps inside the greenroom! When she isn’t speaking Courtney owns and runs her full-service accounting firm in South Carolina where she helps speakers, business owners, and entrepreneurs get the most out of their taxes and has broad expertise in industries including traditional, home-based, and network-marketing businesses. They offer tax strategies that will free up your money legally, morally, and ethically guilt-free. 

You’ll learn about how Courtney has pushed through tough times and sky-rocketed her business’s growth and profit with very little marketing, common mistakes people make on their tax returns, the best practices for business owners with employees, and why you as a speaker should have an LLC. Courtney gives great insight into the two tax systems that our country runs on and how you can be on the side that creates wealth so you can rest easier, have more time, and do the things you’ve always dreamed of doing.

Whether you’re a W-2 employee or the owner of a business you’ll want to listen to this episode twice to make sure that you are receiving the most amount of return for your money. Refresh your taxes and take advantage of the system made to pay back into our communities.
