My Friends,
With so many people selling from their own websites and on eBay these days, "Do I really have to pay taxes on my online and eBay income?" is the NUMBER ONE question I get from people who subscribe to my newsletter, listen to my radio show, and read my books.

In fact, this singular question was the reason I sought out a true accounting and tax expert who could help me create the definitive program to teach online entrepreneurs how to save money and profit from the IRS rules that govern online income.

The accounting and tax expert I chose to partner with is Kristine McKinley, a CPA and Certified Financial Planner.

Kristine was highly experienced in managing the accounting needs of many eBay and online sellers, so she was the perfect partner to help create the exciting package I'm revealing to you today.


You see, Kristine and I have created a program that will not only answer your questions about how to start your own online and eBay business, but how to minimize your taxes while maximizing your profits.

We'll also teach you how to take advantage of all the tax benefits offered to small business owners, how to pay less in taxes, and keep more of the money you earn from your online ventures!

"But, Tim, My Online Business Is Just A Hobby!"
To many people the thought of running an actual business is about as appealing as spending a week locked in a meat locker with their mother-in-law, so they go out of their way to convince themselves that selling online or on eBay is really "just a hobby" and therefore, should not be susceptible to income tax laws.
While you might think selling on eBay especially is just a hobby and the extra money you're making is not reportable as income, depending on the circumstances...

The IRS will most likely disagree with you.


The IRS Rules Are Clear
Make no mistake...
You must pay taxes on all personal and business income and that includes money you make selling on eBay and from your own website.


But I Just Sell Things I Find At Yardsales!
Where you get the item you resell is beside the point.
The IRS rules mean that if you buy a vase at a garage sale for $10 and sell it on eBay for $20 you made a $10 profit and therefore must report it as income and pay Uncle Sam his fair share.


Here's The Bottomline:
In reality, if you are a casual seller who only sells a few items on eBay every now and then it's doubtful the IRS is going to lose much sleep over the few bucks you make.
However, if you consistently sell on eBay the IRS may deem your activities to be business oriented and you will be required to file a Schedule C and claim the income.


So How Do I Make Sure I'm Not Breaking The Law?
What can the average eBay and online seller do to make sure they are operating within the law and free of the wrath of the IRS?
The answer is simple: learn the rules, then learn to use the rules to your advantage!

That's what Kristine McKinley and I will help you do with our brand spanking new business education package...
