Hello, I'm Doug Collins, and if you're here, you're probably searching for answers—just like I was years ago. Navigating what you can and cannot write off for your home business is confusing, especially with conflicting advice and changing rules. I’ve been there, and I’m here to help you avoid the same mistakes I made.
From Corporate Life to Tax-Saving Advocate
In 2010, after my corporate role was dissolved in a restructuring, I jumped into full-time self-employment. It was liberating—but the tax side? In the years leading up to that taxes were overwhelming. Without clear guidance, I like everyone else, stumbled through the maze of home-based business tax strategies, and trust me, one wrong piece of advice can cost you big. For instance, I missed a $5,000 computer write-off in the late '90s because my tax preparer didn't know I was eligible. That mistake stuck with me.
And it didn't end there. In 2015, I was hit with a $15,000 audit and tax reassessment. But I fought back. Without hiring an expensive accountant, I took control, fought the reassessment and won, and saved thousands. That experience sparked my greater focus to help others, the same strategies I now teach in my membership.
Why I Created "Home Business Tax Secrets"
After realizing how many home-based entrepreneurs were missing out on savings and making the same mistakes I created "Home Business Tax Secrets." This started out as just an online course—but now its evolved into a system and a community built to empower home-based business owners like you. My goal is to arm you with the right knowledge to legally save thousands on your taxes, stay audit-proof, and most importantly, eliminate the stress of tax season for good.
Author & Tax Advocate
In 2020, I published The Home-Based Business Guide to Write-Off Almost Anything. It became an Amazon #1 Best Seller and has helped thousands of entrepreneurs across North America. Now, with my Home Business Tax Secrets Membership course and community, I’ve expanded on these principles to offer even more strategies, support, and live training to help you succeed.
