The number Shopify puts in your bank account is not your revenue.

Every payout already had card fees, refunds, and holds pulled out. At 2.9 percent plus 30 cents a transaction, a $10,000 month with 200 orders loses about $350 to fees before the money lands. Book the deposit as sales and you understate revenue and hide your fees in one line.

The fix: book gross sales, then fees and refunds separately, so your margin is visible.

If you spend everything Shopify deposits, April is going to hurt.

Here's the number we give clients: 15 percent of every deposit goes into a separate tax account the day it lands. On a $10,000 month, that's $1,500 set aside before you can spend it. When the quarterly estimate comes due, the money is just sitting there. No scramble, no credit card.

Your percentage might differ. The separate account and the schedule are what matter.

Your accountant is not checking your books. And it’s costing you money.

A tax preparer files a return from whatever you hand them. They don’t audit your books or hunt for the deductions you missed. That’s the bookkeeper’s job, and if that’s you, it’s on you.

Get your books checked before they ever reach your tax preparer. Especially if you’re a newer business.

We’re two CPAs, and we don’t do taxes. We make sure the books your tax preparer works from are actually right.

Most business owners move straight to the next problem.

They forget to look back at what actually improved.

More revenue. Cleaner books. Better control over your money. Those wins matter.

Take a second to recognize progress, then use it to make smarter moves going forward.

Most people only talk to their CPA when tax season comes around.

That might get your return filed, but it will not help you stay ahead.

Monthly strategy gives you clearer numbers, better planning, and fewer surprises when decisions need to be made.

If you want your CPA to help you plan, not just file, send us a DM or visit smokymountaincpas.com to book a consult.

Tax season is over. Most people stop here. That is the mistake.

What you do right after filing is what actually changes your year.

Review your cash. Adjust your plan. Make decisions while everything is still fresh.

If you want help figuring out your next move, send us a message or visit smokymountaincpas.com to book a consult.

The deadline is not just about filing. It is about staying in control of your finances.

From your 1040 to estimated payments, small details matter more than most people think.

If you are still finalizing documents or unsure what applies to you, now is the time to get clarity.

Send us a message or visit smokymountaincpas.com to get help before the deadline hits.

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you. Numbers 6:24–25

Blessing and peace are not random. They grow from how you live, how you treat others, and how you care for what you’ve been given. When your work is grounded in purpose, it brings clarity not just to your life, but to the people around you.

Clear payment terms matter.

If your invoices are vague, payments can slow down fast. Make sure your due dates, fees, and payment options are easy to understand from the start.

Professional invoicing helps protect your time, your cash flow, and your business.

Looking for a loan or a new business partner?

Your tax return may not tell the full story. A review or compilation can help present your financials in a clearer, more professional way when others need to trust your numbers.
