8 Steps to Prepare Your Online Business for Tax Time – – Learn With Shopify x Stephanie Pellett Creative

Here’s the truth: taxes suck.

We all know it! There’s no point pretending: doing your taxes is the absolute worst part of being an entrepreneur. 

I am not here to act like I have all the answers to make taxes a breeze with absolutely no stress required. Has anyone ever cracked that code?! (I’m looking at you, accountants 👀).

But I have found some ways to make the process a LITTLE easier on myself so that I’m not panicky and overwhelmed when tax time rolls around every single year.

In this video, I’m sharing some of the tax tips that have helped me survive this stressful season. We’re talking about systems you can use to prepare, getting help, and trying to make the process more fun in small but meaningful ways.

I can’t promise taxes will ever be easy! Still, hopefully some of these tips can help make it a bit easier for us self-employed folks.
