Do you use your vehicle for your business? The IRS bumped up the mileage rate for 2025 to 70 cents per mile – up a whopping 3 cents from last year.

If you really want to take advantage of the mileage deduction, good record-keeping is a MUST. Don’t leave money on the table because of messy logs or missed miles.

We can help take the hassle out of tracking – just give us a holler.

You’ve (hopefully) set goals for your business for 2025. But how do you know if those goals are actually profitable?

Setting the right strategic goals has to start with the books. You need data on hand like:
😄 Feedback from customers (and employees)
💸Financial and sales reports
📈Research on market trends and your top competitors

But here’s the catch: None of this works if you don't have accurate, detailed records to rely on.

KPI Setting in 2025 for Boosting Your Jersey City Business

KPI Setting in 2025 for Boosting Your Jersey City Business Do you have business goals for 2025? A clear KPI plan can help keep you on track to achieve them.

Getting dizzy from all the recent BOI reporting changes? Here’s a quick recap (and what you need to focus on NOW):

On December 3rd, the original BOI reporting deadline – January 1, 2025 – was called off (thanks to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas). The government appealed this decision, but the court upheld it. Not long after, the court reversed THAT decision – setting a new deadline of January 13th.

THEN, on December 27th, the reporting requirements were called off again. Got BOI whiplash by now?

So, the current status is: You DON’T need to file BOI reports. But DO stay informed, and keep your filing information handy in case of any sudden changes. And if you need any help with that, just give us a call.

Are you a fan of daylight savings? If you said yes, we have some concerns. (Not really).

Our new president apparently isn’t a fan. And the Trump administration could mean you’ll never have to change your clocks again.
