It’s often said that the only certainties in life are death and taxes. While this adage may sound a bit grim, there are effective ways to reduce your business’ tax burden through strategic tax planning. By implementing proactive tax strategies and working with experienced professionals such as Ornate, businesses can legally minimize their tax liability while maximizing their financial resources for growth and expansion. 

Discover some of the key tax strategies that Ornate can help you implement to maximize your business’ tax savings below:

Entity Structure Optimization

The foundation of effective tax planning is choosing the right business structure. Ornate can guide you in selecting a tax-efficient entity—such as an LLC, S corporation, or C corporation—tailored to your business goals and growth plans. The right structure can minimize your overall tax liability and provide flexibility as your business evolves.

Employee Benefits

Offering robust employee benefits not only supports recruitment and retention but can also reduce your business’ tax burden. Benefits such as health insurance, retirement plans, and flexible spending accounts are often tax-deductible for the business and can provide tax advantages for employees as well.

Retirement Contributions

Whether you’re focused on building long-term wealth or simply planning for the future, Ornate can help you leverage retirement plan contributions to lower your taxable income. Options like 401(k)s, SEP IRAs, and SIMPLE IRAs allow both employers and employees to save for retirement while enjoying immediate tax benefits.

Strategic Asset Purchases

The timing of significant asset purchases—such as equipment or other large purchases—can have a major impact on your annual tax obligation. Ornate will work with you to plan these purchases strategically, taking advantage of deductions like Section 179 and bonus depreciation to reduce your tax burden and optimize cash flow.

Optimize Tax Brackets

By carefully deferring or accelerating income and expenses, Ornate can help you manage your tax bracket and minimize your liability. This approach is especially valuable if you anticipate changes in your income or tax rates in future years.

Maximize Deductions & Credits

Ornate will ensure you are taking full advantage of all available tax deductions and credits, from business expenses to R&D credits. Optimizing these opportunities can significantly reduce your tax liability and improve your bottom line.
