Are you getting a Tax Bill?
It is this time of year when small business owners across the country hear from their accountants whether they will receive a refund (YAY!) or a bill (BOO!). With the pandemic and a new president, there have been a number of changes that require compliance from small business owners in the past 4 years. So if you did receive a tax bill this year for your small business, you should read my latest article so that you won’t have sticker shock next year!
My passion is to help you!
Allow me to re-introduce myself! I am Crystal Williams, owner of Smart Money Financial Coaching. For four years, I have had the privilege to guide women and married couples to the best practices in money management. Whether it's the best strategies or the accountability that I provide through coaching, my clients go from feeling frustrated and broke, to being in the driver’s seat with their finances. I am so glad you are here! If there is a topic you would like for me to cover, send me a DM!
Don't Procrastinate
The one thing that every client has in common is that they made a decision to change what they are doing. What is the opposite? Avoiding. Stalling. Delaying. Procrastinating. I could talk about savings rates, budgets and ways to drive down fixed expenses, but the truth is that if you haven’t made the decision to change, it is unlikely that you will find yourself in a different position. If you are ready to make a decision to change your finances, send me a message! I would love to cheer you on!
Are your thoughts holding you back?
Do you have thoughts like these: "I'm not good with money." "I don't make enough money to budget. "Everyone has debt." "I don't make enough money to save." "I'll never pay off my student loans." "I'll always have a car payment." "I'm too old to start saving for retirement." John Acuff calls these looping thoughts “Soundtracks.” These “Soundtracks” prevent so many people from even showing up at the starting line. You need to silence these soundtracks with action! Let’s have a quick call.
We're turning 4!
Years ago, after figuring out how to structure our family’s finances, and the joy that came with that financial peace, I had the idea to become a coach to help others with their finances. The only problem was “I am an introvert!” I took a leap of faith. I became a financial coach so that my skills could help to transform the lives of others. 🥳I am so honored to share that this month, Smart Money Financial Coaching turns 4!🥳I have helped to change over 80 families across the Country.!
