Taxes - No Bueno

Have you done your business taxes yet?

I always put it off until March, too much going on in February around our house. 

 

It's never as bad as I make it out to be in my mind but STILL...this year the results made me MAD.

WHY AM I DOING THIS?

 Extra cash flow?  Yes. 

Do I love doing it?  Mostly.

Do I think I am decent at it? Yes. 

Does it enable me to stay at home? Yes.

Do I HATE the inventory in my basement?  YES!

I've read that for a small business it's a good goal to have your profit be at least 20-25% of your totals.  

Mine is at 34%, so I guess I'm not failing completely.  

Have you done your taxes?  How are you faring with your totals?  Does it make you want to work harder or just give up?

I just gave up for 24 hours. 

Now I am back at it.

Ebay, I just can't quit you.

New Year Inventory Clean Out

I have let my inventory go all willy nilly on me.  

It's everywhere!  

I usually am super organized - mostly to avoid that dreaded "it just sold, now let me spend 2 hours tearing everything apart looking for it!" headache. (We've all been there, right?!)

J. Crew 00 Floral Mini Skirt 

I just did all my denim jackets (six were not even listed!) and now I am moving on to two bins of skirts.  

TWENTY TWO of which are not listed.  

What?  

Who runs this place?

They are just wasting space and not making me any money!  Somehow these items fell off my listings, I didn't re-list...who knows.  

I do know that I am not shopping this week or the next, I am just going through bin by bin.  Getting my inventory organized and EVERYTHING listed!!
