    Here are some tax-saving opportunities you might b Here are some tax-saving opportunities you might be overlooking: 1. Business travel can be deducted if it’s work-related. This includes flights, hotel stays, 50% of meal costs, conference fees, parking, and tolls. 2. Seasonal marketing efforts such as summer promotions, printed flyers, and participation in local events are all deductible. 3. Client meetups, even if held outdoors at a café or park, can count as a business expense as long as they’re properly documented. 4. Interns, temporary workers, and part-time summer help are deductible through payroll and related support costs. 5. Equipment rentals for events, pop-up shops, or trade shows like booths, tables, and signage also qualify as deductible expenses. Taking a vacation that includes work? Only the business portion is deductible, so track it carefully. Remember to save every receipt and log the business purpose clearly. Ready to earn more and keep more of it at tax time?
