Tax Prep for Entrepreneurs - by Accounting Play

Overview

This course introduces the vocabulary and concepts of tax planning for entrepreneurs, creators, and consultants. Rather than walking through a specific tax return, it focuses on building the working knowledge needed to make informed entity and tax decisions.

Who It's For

Self-employed business owners who currently self-prepare their taxes, or anyone who wants to enter conversations with a CPA better equipped to move beyond basic filing into real tax planning and strategy.

Key Takeaways

• Learn the core language of tax so filing and planning conversations make sense
• Understand how entity decisions affect your tax outcome
• Identify deductions and fees that can reduce what you owe
• Build confidence to self-prepare or to work more effectively with a paid preparer

The course positions itself as a bridge: once you outgrow self-preparation, the knowledge here is meant to carry into a more strategic relationship with a CPA or tax professional.
