“Money – How to make it and how to keep it

(Without spinning your wheels and wasting time)”

Marie Gibson, Marie Gibson Management & Consulting

Is your business making the money that you deserve? Do you want your business to grow? Is your business profitable? How do you know? Do you have financial statements that you can read, understand and use to make wise business decisions? Are you frustrated and wasting too much time and energy on earning your money, tracking your money or keeping your money?

This session is designed to give you the specific system that ensures that you are being paid well for your efforts. You will know how to transform your business with seven keys steps to profitability; how to track your money in an easy, simple manner that puts control back in your hands; set up your accounting system to give you the information that you need for management and compliance; and rest easily at night knowing that your records are organized so that you have control of your business.

“Seven Sane and Sensible Practices (So You Control Your Email Instead of It Controlling You!)”

Dr. Meggin McIntosh, “The Ph.D. of Productivity”™

Have you ‘had it’ with email? Does the time you spend on email increase, no matter what you do? Do you expect instantaneous replies to your emails – or do others expect the same of you? Is your #1 task for the day sometimes not completed…yet you’ve dealt with your incoming emails? Do you actually love email and just want to be a power user instead of “dabbling” in it?

Dr. Meggin McIntosh will teach you “Seven Sane and Sensible Practices” These practices all include words beginning with “D:” determine, delete, decide, defer, defend, devalue, deploy. Learn how to decrease the amount of time you spend on email by at least 50%; how to increase the clarity of your communication, thereby amplifying your own and others’ productivity; and how to maximize your sense of satisfaction about your workday.

“CPAs – saving you time and money”

Mike Bosma, CPA, The Bosma Group

Do you dread tax time? Have your property taxes shot through the roof? Confused by which tax structure is right for you?

These fast-paced two hours tells you everything you need to know about using a CPA: How to determine when you need a CPA, what services they perform, how to use their time efficiently to maximize the return on the investment, and how to choose one who fits what you need. Mike will also discuss his published article, “How to Select a CPA” that distinguishes between small, medium, and large CPA firms. As an added bonus, Mike will give an overview of how your form of doing business (sole proprietor, Limited Liability Company, C Corporation, S Corporation) will impact your tax liability and chances for an IRS audit. During his talk, Mike will share his experience with other taxes as well, such as property and sales tax disputes.
