Sales & Use Tax Services
Whether you’re a one-person shop selling custom shirts out of a garage or running a multi-location store, sales and use tax can feel like paperwork with a vendetta. Kim helps small businesses get compliant, minimize risk, and — when appropriate — recover money that rightfully belongs to you.
Why sales & use tax matters
Sales and use tax isn’t optional. Miss a filing, misclassify a transaction, or forget to collect tax and you could face penalties, interest, and an audit. But handled correctly, sales tax becomes a routine part of your bookkeeping — not a surprise audit waiting to happen.
Kim’s experience with audits and practical, small-business-first approach keeps tax compliance manageable and business-friendly.
