đź’ˇ Master Connector Tip of the Week: Create a useful handoff, not a cold transfer.

A great introduction does more than connect two people. It gives the conversation a meaningful starting point.

With permission, share the business owner's current needs, stage of growth, and the type of support they're looking for. Leave the private details for them to share.

Remember: Share enough to help, but never more than you're authorized to share. A thoughtful handoff builds trust, respects confidentiality, and makes connections more valuable for everyone involved.

One contractor. Multiple payment methods. One potential reporting mistake.

If you paid a vendor by check, ACH, and credit card, don't assume every payment belongs on the same Form 1099-NEC. Payment cards and qualifying third-party network transactions generally follow separate reporting rules.

Before filing, review your vendor details, separate payment methods, and reconcile the reportable totals. Accurate 1099 reporting starts with accurate bookkeeping.

Count carefully. Reconcile before you report.

10/21/2026

The 1099 rules are changing for 2026, and updating one number on your checklist isn't enough.

For many reportable contractor-service payments, the federal Form 1099-NEC threshold is now $2,000. But W-9 collection, accurate vendor records, reporting exceptions, and state-specific requirements still deserve attention.

A higher threshold doesn't mean fewer bookkeeping responsibilities.

Review your vendor totals and reporting process before year-end so you're not scrambling when January arrives.

A great introduction is more than exchanging contact information. It’s about connecting the right people with the right reason to talk.

Before making an introduction, explain why the connection makes sense, get permission, and suggest a simple next step. A little context can turn a cold introduction into a meaningful business relationship.

Be the connector who makes opportunities easier to find and relationships easier to build.

Could your remaining paychecks help close a tax-payment gap?

When household income changes, a spouse starts working, or a side business grows, your current tax withholding may no longer match what you owe.

Review your recent pay stubs, project your household income, and compare your expected tax liability with your withholding and estimated payments. The right adjustment depends on your actual numbers, not guesswork.

A little planning now can help you avoid bigger surprises at tax time.

A signed tax return doesn’t automatically mean it’s been filed and accepted.

With the October 15 extended deadline here, confirm your filing status with your tax preparer. Check for missing documents, complete any outstanding signatures, and keep your filing acceptance notice for your records.

Remember, an extension to file does not extend the original deadline to pay. Don’t leave your tax status to guesswork. Confirm it, document it, and close the loop.

Being a business owner in the accounting industry means more than managing numbers. It’s about helping other businesses stay financially organized, make informed decisions, and grow with confidence. 💚

Behind every busy day is a purpose: making a difference in the businesses we serve. At Harvin & Associates, we believe every report, every detail, and every client relationship matters.

How about you? As a business owner, what drives you to keep going and strive for more, even on your busiest days? 💼✨

10/06/2026

Your accounting firm should do more than simply prepare reports. Choose a team that genuinely cares about your business, takes the time to go through every detail, and understands that behind every number is a decision, a goal, and the future of your company.

At Harvin & Associates, we treat your business with the same care and attention we would give our own. We look beyond the numbers to help save you time, catch what others may overlook, and give you the clarity you need to make smarter business decisions. Because when your accountant truly cares, you can feel the difference.

Master Connector Tip of the Week đź’ˇ

People may remember your title, but they’re more likely to remember the problem you help solve.

Instead of simply saying, “I own an accounting firm,” make your introduction referral-ready:

“I help business owners understand their numbers so they can make better decisions.”

That small shift makes it easier for people to understand what you do — and know exactly who to think of when an opportunity comes up.

Ask yourself:
• What problem do I solve?
• Can I explain it without industry jargon?
• Could someone repeat it tomorrow?

The goal isn’t just to introduce yourself. It’s to make yourself easy to refer.
