Insider Secrets of a Tax Investigator - CD Audio Programme

 print  e-mail 

Over recent years many sole traders and small business owners have unwittingly fallen foul of the UK income tax laws and consequently found themselves to be the target of an Inland Revenue investigation.

A tax investigation is a harrowing and very expensive experience for any small business, even if you think you have done nothing wrong. Described as a long, weary and financially devastating experience, new business start-ups are particularly vulnerable.

But by employing a few simple techniques you can greatly reduce the chances of being singled out by the Government. Most inspections are not random, as many people believe. They are triggered by certain red flags that are picked up in your annual accounts, which quite often are oversights or even minor mistakes.

The truth is that almost all these factors are firmly within your control. These red flags are only visible to an investigator at the Revenue because you were foolish enough to wave them in his direction.

If you’d like to learn how to lower these ‘red-flags’ then get yourself a copy of Insider Secrets of a Tax Investigator - it’s one of the first things this Audio CD programme teaches you.

Insider Secrets of a Tax Investigator

Insider Secrets of a Tax Investigator is a new audio programme featuring a 2-hour ‘fly on the wall’ interview with ex-UK Tax Inspector, Peter Clare. The programme will teach you:

  • The tricks and techniques an investigator will use to back you into a corner both in writing and in an interview situation
  • The tell-tale ‘red flags’ in your accounts which will have an investigator all over you like a rash
  • The seemingly innocent actions which could slam you right in the firing line for a detailed investigation
  • The truth about the real powers of a tax inspector. The answer may surprise you!
  • The steps you should take today to effectively wipe yourself right off the investigators radar. He’ll only ‘attack’ what he can easily see
  • What to do if you get caught ‘red-handed’. This one piece of information could save your home, your business and keep you out of jail!
... along with many more tricks and tips to keep the eyes of the HMRC well away from your business activities.

The cost of dealing with a full blown investigation really doesn’t bear thinking about. And because this is a business advice publication, the cost is tax-deductible!
