Dear Reader

And the Oscar goes to.....

....well maybe not.

Hopefully, however, you and/or other small business owners will appreciate the tax hints and tips video series we've put together with the help of Kate McGurk of Vision Global Media - thank you Kate for putting up with us and for your expert input.

The first video in the series is here. It's all about the benefits of being set up in business as a sole trader. The sole trader business is easy to set up and to operate which is perhaps why it is so popular.

There are a further 11 videos in the series which we will be releasing over the next weeks. Hope you find them useful.
