Weekly Update September 6
Get back $10k-$200k in Payroll Credits and more...
Hey ,
Happy Tuesday! I hope you had a great Labor Day weekend and spent some good time relaxing or traveling.
Today I want to share how brands in our Foodbevy community have gotten back $10,000 - $110,000 in tax credits, and you can too.
I've talked with dozens of founders and everyone is worried about money. E-commerce sales have slowed down for some and fundraising is taking much longer, especially for early-stage businesses.
It's important now more than ever to save as much money as possible.
The IRS has tons of tax credits that you’re likely missing out on as a small business.We’ve partnered with Leyton to help you get back the money you're owed. They do all the paperwork and you get cash. If they can’t help you claim any credits, you pay $0. As long as you’re doing $100,000+ in sales you likely qualify.How much can you get?
Natural Stacks does $5 million and got back $110,000
Brand A* does $1 million and got back $13,500
Brand B* does $200,000 and got back $10,000
*real brands that didn't want to share their names
This is real money going back into your pocket. Even if you operate at a "loss", these credits can be used against your payroll taxes, which everyone has to pay.
What can it cover?
Product R&D expenses including materials and line-time when self-manufacturing or working with a co-manufacturer.
You or your team's time spent doing R&D.
Credits if you saw a drop in revenue during COVID
Credits if you had to temporarily close during COVID lockdowns.
and more.
Want to see how much you qualify for? Book time on their calendar or request an intro.
