FINANCIAL CONSULTING AND TAX STRATEGY
Get a thorough examination of your operation’s financials and a custom plan of which improvements to make without having to change CPAs
Not sure if your tax savings are optimized?
You’re a rancher, not a tax expert. You want to be on your land as much as possible, not crunching numbers in a spreadsheet, or on a napkin. Yet, you can’t help but wonder, “Are there more savings out there for me?”
Even if you wanted to find the answer, you wouldn’t know where to start. And, you don’t have time. Or interest.
You’ve met with your CPA, who is probably getting you an ok deal. But… are they really? Maybe. But maybe not.
And until now, there’s been no way to get a second opinion, without an enormous headache called “changing accountants.” And no one wants to do that.
Imagine someone showing you specific examples of tax and expense savings
Imagine – Increasing your profit every year, year after year, allowing you to put that cash right back into your operation.
Imagine - having that extra cash when that one piece of land pops up for sale; imagine having that kind of profit, without having to work any harder.
Imagine - having money that stays in your account at the end of the year, instead of being paid to Uncle Sam, or to the banks.

In-Depth Examination & Custom Plan
A thorough examination of your farm or ranching operation’s financials and a custom plan for improvements to make without having to change CPAs.
Because most CPAs don’t specialize in agricultural tax code, they may be missing what’s tucked into the tax code.
We know where to look to find you more tax savings.
How It Works:
“Start with a discovery call to make sure your farm or ranch has all the right ingredients for getting results. If I don’t think I can get you solid results, I will be upfront about it. (ie, I won’t take you on!)
If we decide we are a fit for working together and we want to move forward, the process will look like this: ”
“You’ll get the most savings if we can gather all the information ahead of time. To make sure we have everything, you’ll get a checklist of documents to send me. That list will likely include your most recent tax returns, loan documents, equipment account summaries or herd & production records. Once I receive everything, I will review it in preparation of our first meeting.”
“This meeting gives us a chance to ask questions and better understand your operation’s financials. After this meeting, I will analyze your situation and run scenarios, and you will want to connect with your own CPA and bring them up to speed.”
“Here is where you will see your in-depth tax strategy and savings plan and how much various scenarios can save you. We’ll talk through your options to help you determine which paths are best for you, and what you will need to do to implement changes.”
“In this 3-way call on Zoom, we will review your chosen plan with your CPA, so that your CPA is on the same page and knows exactly how to implement the plan to maximize your tax savings. ”
“Because questions will arise as your CPA implements your chosen strategy, we schedule up to 3 follow up meetings inside the next 2 months to make sure the strategy is properly implemented and you can start to see your savings come to fruition. ”

Basic Review and Consultation
