1-800Accountant Launches New Tax Savings Service for 1099 Workers
Introduction
In an era where independent contracting is on the rise, 1-800Accountant has stepped up to address the unique tax challenges faced by 1099 workers. The leading virtual accounting firm recognizes the need for tailored financial solutions, particularly as many freelancers and self-employed individuals navigate tax complexities without sufficient guidance. Their latest offering aims to empower independent contractors by reducing their tax burden from the very start of their business journey.
The Rise of 1099 Work
The demand for flexibility in employment has led to an explosive growth in independent contractor roles across various industries. According to data from 1-800Accountant, there has been a significant increase in clientele from contractor-heavy sectors such as consulting, construction, and services, with growth rates hitting 17%, 10%, and over 200%, respectively. Despite this surge, many of these workers unknowingly overpay taxes due to a lack of proper business structuring or tax election.
Traditionally, workers in sectors like healthcare, engineering, and legal services have fallen behind in adopting beneficial business structures, with LLC registration levels trailing behind industries such as construction and real estate. The new service from 1-800Accountant seeks to bridge this gap by helping contractors implement the most effective business types for their specific income scenarios and tax situations.
Comprehensive Tax Solutions
1-800Accountant offers a structured approach that begins with an evaluation of the client's business and tax needs. New and existing clients can now access the service that assists in selecting the ideal business setup, ensuring that all necessary registrations are completed accurately. This holistic approach integrates their business setup into a broader tax strategy specific to the contractor's income level and future business aspirations.
Mike Savage, the Founder and CEO of 1-800Accountant, emphasizes the urgency of strategic tax planning for independent contractors. “Most 1099 workers don’t realize how much they could save with proper planning,” he states. The new service aims to provide the same strategic advantages available to established businesses, right from their initial setup.
Navigating Tax Maze
What differentiates 1-800Accountant’s service from others is its incorporation of tax strategy directly into the setup process. Ryan Teeples, Chief of Strategy, highlights that contractors often require detailed knowledge about which tax structures optimize their earnings best. With the right support, they can save significantly on both business and personal taxes. The service is tailored around the individual contractor's needs, aligning their income, service type, and long-term vision with appropriate tax strategies.
Service Details
The service is now accessible at an introductory pricing of $19 per month, alongside any applicable government filing fees. This comprehensive package includes:
- - Business setup evaluation
- - Tax return preparation and filing
- - State and federal registrations
- - Easy-to-use AI bookkeeping software
- - Consultation with tax experts for personalized onboarding and guidance on individual tax matters.
Conclusion

The launch of their tax savings service is a timely step towards providing freelancers and self-employed individuals with the essential tools they need for effective tax management and financial planning.
