Sales & Use Tax for Contractors:
The Mistakes That Cost Six Figures
friday, MAY 29th | 12:00pm - 1:00pm EST
A contractor won a job, signed the contract, and discovered 30 days later that their sales tax was wrong. The exposure: over $300,000.
Most contractors don't realize how much sales and use tax exposure they're carrying. The rules are complex, the classifications aren't obvious, and your competitors may not be accounting for them at all.
In this live session, you'll learn how to determine your tax exposure, avoid unplanned tax bills and set your business up for long-term success.
