The Specific Challenges We Solve
Booth Renter vs. Employee Classification
Misclassifying booth renters as employees — or treating booth renters as employees when they should be independent contractors — is one of the most common IRS audit triggers in the salon industry. We review every arrangement and ensure your documentation is correct.
Tip Reporting and Tipped Payroll
Tipped employees require tip allocation, FICA calculation on tip income, and W-2s that reflect total compensation. We handle it correctly for every pay period so your payroll is compliant and your tax deposits are accurate.
Retail Product Sales Tax Compliance
Retail products sold in salons — shampoos, skincare, styling products — are subject to Florida sales tax. Service revenue may not be. We track both categories and file the right amounts so you're never overpaying or undercollecting.
A Bookkeeper Who's Also a Federally authorized Enrolled Agent
Most bookkeepers categorize transactions and hand you a report. Simple Books Now does that — and our Licensed EA can also represent you before the IRS, file your business and personal tax returns, and advise on tax strategy year-round. One firm. No referrals. No gaps.
