After my fifth year of working in corporate America, it was time to move on. I started my own company and over a period of 17 years grew it to 350 employees with a worldwide marketing footprint. Financing came through an SBA guaranteed loan, an angel investment, and a venture capital invesment. Sold the Company to an international financial firm as part of its strategic initiative.

I have started four companies; some were great successes and others were failures. I play off of these experiences, and suggest to people that I got grey so they won't have to.

Executive Summary

Optimism builds as primary concerns diminish
Small business owners’ macroeconomic outlook may be the most optimistic it has been since prior to the 2008 economic crisis. Confidence in a stronger economy is at an all-time high (29 percent as of March 2012 compared with the previous high of 28 percent in December 2009). While the U.S. recovering from the recession is still the top concern, it is down significantly from last quarter. Additionally, concern over consumer confidence is at its lowest level since 2Q08.

Special tax law provisions may help taxpayers and businesses recover financially from the impact of a disaster, especially when the federal government declares their location to be a major disaster area. Depending on the circumstances, the IRS may grant additional time to file returns and pay taxes. Both individuals and businesses in a federally declared disaster area can get a faster refund by claiming losses related to the disaster on the tax return for the previous year, usually by filing an amended return.

 

The IRS also offers audio presentations on Planning for Disaster. These presentations discuss business continuity planning, insurance coverage, recording keeping and other tips to stay in business after a major disaster. 

 

Visit their Disaster Assistance and Emergency Relief for Individuals and Businesses section of the IRS site for more.
