If you learned one thing which could make you more valuable to your customers and clients so they would love you more, what would you want that one thing to be?


It's clear that my "tribe" isn't as big as a lot of other coaches out there so unfortunately I won't be able to touch as many lives as some others by inviting them to Dean and Tony's online event which shows people how to help people. I also understand that this isn't everyone's "thing". But if you are a professional in any industry, a speaker, a coach, an entrepreneur, a business person; heck even a comedian you should check this out. It will be huge and I know it is life changing. And just think, if you learned just one thing which could make you better in helping your customers, and clients and get more from what you do, then my telling you about this opportunity will have been worth it. It's online, its' free and I only have less than 100 invites left. Check it out.

Tax Professionals, How to Use the 1040 Form to get more clients...


Dear Tax Professional,

Good day!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with many tax professionals over the years and one thing I know, most want to offer more to their clients. In just one minute, I’ll share with you how other tax professionals have offered great value to their business clients, which resulted in both accolades, referrals and more business.

Hello. My name is Terry (Ter) Scott and I’m a membership rep for NFIB. I’m sure you’ve heard of the National Federation of Independent Business, have clients who are members and perhaps you are a member yourself.


NFIB's mission is to promote and protect the right of our members to own, operate and grow their businesses. To learn more simply visit NFIB.com.

Line 10 on the 1040 Form got your business clients a big deduction on their net income. That same line 10 can keep your client’s business profitable and also get your firm more business clients. Here’s how. 

We are looking for more business owners in your area to become members; to join our 300,000 other small business owners in strengthening the voice of small business, in your own community; to make the politicians pay attention to the needs of your small business owner clients.

Attached is a two sided handout for you to make copies from and give to your clients. (Please request yours via the contact form on this page). 

NFIB was the only organization which stood up for small business and got them the 20% tax deduction (line 10) some years ago when at first the tax break was only going to go to the C Corps and up.   You don’t have to say anything except that they might want to check out NFIB and become a member if they want to, include with the paperwork you present to them or simply leave a few copies for your clients to see and pick up when they come into your office. Either way, your business clients will appreciate the added value you are offering. Let them know that you (and NFIB) are working hard to keep them profitable and that NFIB offers free informative webinars and other things at NFIB.com which can help to keep their businesses profitable.

When I’m in an area seeing current and prospective members, I always recommend other professionals which could be of service to their business. if you are not already a member I would like to enroll you. As a member you’ll be able to keep abreast of important issues which affect small business which will help you remain the expert in the eyes of your clients. You’ll personally be able to vote the ballots so you’ll know firsthand what your clients will receive if they choose to be a member! 

To get started, see the rate card on the reverse side and choose your membership fee which you think is affordable for your firm. Mail your enrollment fee to my address or call me and I can process your payment over the phone. You’ll get an email within minutes from the home office in Nashville after I process your membership.

Thanks in advance for your support and I look forward to assisting you in offering this free service to your clients, and building your practice. Make it a great day!

In summary, if you are a tax professional contact me and enroll as a member yourself. 
Request the PDF of the front and back of the handout to distribute to your clients. When they contact me, I'll take it from there. 
That's it. You'll be offering a great service to your clients and they will certainly appreciate it. 

Sincerely, Terry Scott, NFIB Membership Rep

PS. Be sure to write your Name and Firm Name on the handouts that you distribute to your clients so I’ll know where they originated so I can properly thank you.

Are you a current NFIB member? If not, why not? Being an NFIB member yourself allows you to vote the ballots and get all the resources made available to our members. Plus you’ll have knowledge about what it is you are encouraging your clients to take part in. Remember, you don’t have to sell it, just share it.

Below is the current rate card and an “invoice” with my address and phone number. Simply complete the form and mail your check (or credit card info) to me and I’ll process everything. You’ll then get a receipt via email and a second email to register your preferences. I can answer all of your questions and even process your membership over the phone for faster enrollment.



If you have any questions, I am here to help. Please use my contact information below.

Minimum Wage, more money in your pocket but more money needed to buy; no gain and more pain.

Most business owners understand that the minimum wage hike will definitely hurt the economy; but a small few don’t see the ripple effect which will spread across the entire economy. They feel that since they already pay over what the minimum would be that they are “safe”. I spoke to one owner who today said that he would welcome having his (and he mentioned a major chain) competitor having to pay the same or higher wage as he does for his employees.

These few employers like him which exist perhaps haven’t considered how a “one size fits all” wage increase program's impact would be on not only their business but even the well being of their own already highly paid employees.  

From a lower paid employee’s outlook, he or she thinks that at this time they cannot “afford” things because they are not getting paid enough (and they listen to and believe all of the banter by well-intentioned politicians who never held a job or ran a business). They believe that if only they got paid more they would have more and could buy more. Seems simple enough. They do not understand that yes, they will indeed have more money but that money will buy less because the prices on everything will go up too.

If the minimum wage increase went into effect tomorrow this employee with a higher paycheck had better run to the store as fast as his feet can carry him before the store owner raises all the prices to cover giving his overhead. (Overhead is a term employees, politicians and a lot of people on the street don’t know the meaning of). 

People now working two jobs to make ends meet will still work those two, and perhaps three jobs, to pay for the same things they buy now.  The prices of everything goes up in relation to what their new paycheck equals. Wages go up and prices go up; you have more money in your pocket (but it buys less).

When I speak to a business owner like this rarity who hasn’t yet realize how the ripple effect of what the minimum wage hike will do, I applaud them for their choice as a business owner to pay whatever they want, to attract and keep good employees (which is a topic for another time). However, an across the board minimum wage hike will also increase the cost of goods coming into his place of business; which in turn causes him to have to raise the cost of his goods going out his door. He may have to also let employees go to make up for the loss of profit. Then he has to hope the higher price tag on his things are still attractive to his customer so they continue buying and he can stay in business.

Employees pay will be equal and may result in asking for a raise over what they are paid now so they can afford the same level of lifestyle they had been living. Or they may find it more attractive to work at another business which which offers things that wages can't "buy" like flexibility and location closer to home; or doesn’t require working as hard as they currently do, but at the same wage.

There are solutions to help people be able to afford a better lifestyle but a one sized government program, according to most business owners, isn’t it.  

Do you own a small business? If you appreciate this, please consider "following by email". Also, if you are not a member of NFIB, please find out more and allow me to enroll you. Details below. 



I recently saw this on Facebook and since it's 
related to this topic, I thought I'd share it here. 

Image may contain: 4 people, possible text that says 'HOW DOES "TRICKLE DOWN" WORK AGAIN? FIRST, THE 1% GETS ALL THE MONEY AND THEN WHAT? THAT'S IT'


These are the comments which followed... 

Except in many small business that give their employees raises due to the tax savings. But hey...believe what you want!

Life is all about choices , I’ve worked the corporate lifestyle ,I was just a number , I was disposable , I was unemployed for 2 years , March 1 I open my 2nd store! I can’t provide benefits, but I do pay good wages for those who work , some people would rather punch a clock , and leave work at 5pm with no worries , some people don’t want the stress or pressure of a small business .

The 1% does not "get all" the money, they earned their money. People that have money invest in businesses in one many different ways. It could be investing in businesses they created. It could be providing capital for other businesses to grow and succeed. It could be purchasing a product or service from another business. There are many other examples. Many people would be worse off without the success of higher income earners trickling down to them.

And here is my 3 Cents: 

NFIB was able to get the 20% tax deduction for small businesses (it was only going to go to the C corps and up) which has helped the small business owner to give raises to their employees; in some cases over what the proposed minimum wage would do. I really appreciate what Ken, Jonathan and Dave are all saying. Here's an article I wrote which was published about the minimum wage issues which addresses this topic partly. Let me know what you think.

What say you? Please leave your comments below. 

Three Ways Tax and Financial Professionals can increase business by promoting...


Attention CPAs, Accountants and Financial related Professionals. Set yourself apart and set yourself up to win, by sharing this knowledge with your clients. 


How would you like to offer more services to your clients which will not cost you a penny but will make you and your firm look great in the eyes of your current clients?

How would you like to double or triple your business with just referrals alone?

Hello. 

My name is Ter Scott. I’ve been helping small business clients for well over 25 years with marketing and more. Today I keep busy serving my personal clients and speaking around the country as the Small Business Adviser and Business Resource Consultant.

In just a few minutes, I’ll show you how you can offer just 3 “products” and services to your clients that WILL set you apart from your competition, and get you more referrals and more business.

You won’t make any direct remuneration from them, but it won’t cost time or a dime to implement them in what you already do AND WILL MAKE YOU A GIANT in your client’s eyes (and in return they will become ambassadors of referrals for you).

Today tax professionals are experiencing many things which can severely affect their businesses. Small business owners are looking for alternatives to your services. They want answers to what is relevant to them today; not just “business as usual”. Here are two things I found.

Per Capterra, In 2020, accounting will be about much more than crunching the numbers. Here are the biggest accounting challenges today and how to solve them.

“…technology is reducing the need for traditional, rules-based accounting skills and increasing demand for financial analysis and strategy. But you can’t just roll out of bed one day and start doling out financial advice to your clients”.

An article by the Alliott group states that a colossal shift is happening in every sector– Accountants and lawyers need to open their minds or be eaten up.

My suggestion to avoid being “eaten” is to do these three things which will truly set your business apart from others and virtually guarantee a stream of business owner clients.
OK, I’m going to get right to the point because your time is valuable and so is mine. Here goes.

At this moment while you are reading this, membership reps of NFIB (National Federation of Independent Business) are canvasing every business population in America, that’s a good thing. NFIB has been helping small business owners join together in pushing back on harmful regulation that could hurt them, their business and their employees.  NFIB's mission is to promote and protect the right of our members to own, operate and grow their businesses.

The U.S. Census Bureau’s Business Dynamics Statistics reveal that over the last 25 years, an average of one in every 12 employer firms closes down every year. 

NFIB helps small business owners to keep their businesses running profitably so they can stay in business. When they stay in business, they stay as your clients.

So the number one step I recommend is to be a member of NFIB and promote membership to your clients; they will thank you for it. I can help you to become a member of NFIB if you are not a member currently, and I have handouts which make it easy to promote membership to your clients.


If you are not yet a member yourself, I would strongly suggest that you contact my office and allow me to give you’re the details and get you started. Among all the things which a membership will do for you and your business, it will keep you abreast of what the challenges are for your clients who own a small business. I will email you handouts which you can easily copy and distribute to your clients. One popular right now is the Form 1040 which presents how NFIB was responsible for getting your clients the 20% tax deduction.
Being is an NFIB member and promoting it to your clients is first way in how you can help your clients to love you and give you referrals. Contact me today and let’s start that conversation. I can help you regardless of where your firm is located in the USA but I will need to speak directly to the owner of the business.

The second and third steps (and offerings you should make to your clients) are both the W.O.T.C. program and the Estimated Tax Calculator. These are DIY tools which you can offer to your clients. They take just a few moments where they enter their information and we take it from there. Most CPAs, Accountants and related tax professionals do not want to mess with these things because frankly they aren’t profitable for their time, but for us, our proprietary software makes it feasible; and in turn profitable for your clients. You promote the websites and we’ll find monies which over 90% of tax firms are unable to find. Again, you won’t earn income directly from the W.O.T.C. program and the Estimated Tax Calculator but will certainly make you the hero when your client’s find monies which you were unable to or it isn’t in your list of services.





Your clients need to hear about NFIB and the W.O.T.C. program and the Estimated Tax Calculator  from you.

Regardless whether you tell your clients about NFIB or share how they can save up to $9600 with new hires or get huge tax savings with our online calculator, they will find out about these opportunities on their own. NFIB reps will call on them and enroll them. My firm will continue to market our W.O.T.C. and Tax Savings Calculator online where we get hundreds of businesses enrolling daily. Now that you know about this, you don’t have to let your clients come to you and ask you why you didn’t tell them.

Don’t wait a moment longer. Pick up the phone and call me. Or use my contact form. Click on the links and get the details; you can even use the W.O.T.C and Tax Savings Calculator for your own business and see how much you could be saving!

Promote NFIB, and add our W.O.T.C. and Tax Savings Calculator to your services. Request and print the handouts on your letterhead and share them. It’s that easy and you will be the hero. Remember that you won’t earn directly from offering this knowledge to your clients but you will gain in many other ways by being the professional your clients will respect you as.

Make it a great day!
Ter Scott!
