In this episode of the Growth Enablement Madness podcast, host Jim Ward sits down with Craig Eaton, a CPA and founder of Eaton Advisory Group, to discuss the powerful tax-saving benefits of Section 179. As businesses look to invest in software, equipment, and other capital assets to support their growth, understanding how to leverage Section 179 can provide significant financial advantages.Key takeaways include:Overview of Section 179 Deduction: Section 179 allows businesses to deduct the full cost of qualifying equipment and software purchases in the year of purchase, rather than depreciating the asset over time.Benefits of Section 179: Immediate tax deduction, resulting in significant tax savings, especially for businesses in higher tax brackets. The deduction can be applied to a wide range of business purchases, including software, equipment, and vehicles.Qualifying Criteria: There are specific requirements and limitations around the types of purchases that qualify for the Section 179 deduction, such as purchase price thresholds and asset class restrictions.Timing Considerations: Businesses should consider their current and future tax situations when deciding whether to utilize the Section 179 deduction, as it can be strategically timed to maximize tax savings.Bonus Depreciation vs. Section 179: The differences between these two tax incentives, including the election process and the phasing out of bonus depreciation in the coming years.Advice for First-Time Users: Consult with a CPA to ensure proper planning and analysis of the tax implications, as well as understanding the nuances and limitations of the Section 179 deduction.RELATED LINKSLearn more about Section 179 here.Learn more on the IRS website.Follow Craig on LinkedIn!

Is technology stopping you from growing or running your business?In this episode of The Business Ownership Podcast I interviewed Jack Murphy. Jack is the guy behind Motion 3 Technology. He started his company for himself and had an entrepreneurial spirit that said he could do this and do it better than others. The second reason was for his wife, Rachel, and their two kids, Malachai and Aurora. They support many of the technology experiments he brings home, and they are always messing with the latest tech tools, apps, and games. They help him figure out how to solve problems creatively, and he has learned tons from them about communicating with clarity and patience to his clients. His company Motion 3 Technology was created with a very simple mission: to bring the humanity back to IT. So often, his friends and family would call on him to explain something that had already been “explained” by another IT or tech professional…who actually left them confused or feeling belittled. It's also quite intimidating to get a quote for work at your business without knowing whether it is fair and needed. He wanted to do what he  always loved—using technology to expand our understanding of the world around us—while helping other people find the same fun and excitement in the potential of technology that he did. So, he found professionals who value communication, patience, and consistency and formed Motion 3 Technology. And now, he is privileged to say that he breaks a record every day he wakes up. Be the first to know about the future of technology and how it will impact your company in the present and future.Check ths out!Show Links:Motion 3 Technology: https://www.motion3.tech/Jack Murphy on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jack-murphy-4674a731/Book a call with Michelle: https://go.appointmentcore.com/book/IcFD4cGJoin our Facebook group for business owners to get help or help other business owners!The Business Ownership Group - Secrets to Scaling: https://www.facebook.com/groups/businessownershipsecretstoscalingLooking to scale your business?
