The corporation deadline for North Georgia businesses is behind us, and we’re taking a big breath around here (while still focusedly working through personal tax returns as well). Apparently, there are basketball games being played. Not that we would know much...
It’s always been hard-scrapping for small business owners in North Georgia. We’ve all heard the old adage: At least 85% and maybe as high as 98% of new small businesses fail before they hit the five year mark. That rate may have been even higher over the...
