Who this is for
This checklist is especially helpful if you:
• run a service business

What’s inside the checklist
You’ll get a structured list of deduction categories including:
Home office expenses
Advertising and marketing
Vehicle and travel costs
Software subscriptions
Equipment purchases
Professional services
Education and training
Contractors and payroll
Bank and processing fees
Insurance and administrative costs
Plus a simple framework for identifying what qualifies as a legitimate business deduction.
Why this matters
Most small business owners don’t lose deductions because they spend too little.
They lose them because their books aren’t reviewed consistently.
