Adesso

Adesso and RBG know there’s been so much noise out there about deadlines that it’s making business owners think they’re too late to file their Employer Retention Credit (ERC), costing them thousands of dollars in much-needed (and deserved!) funds. With all this confusion getting in the way of the facts, we wanted to reach out today and clear the air.   Our partners at Adesso have confirmed the filing period for the Employee Retention Credit (ERC) has been extended! So many of our members were told they were too late to get those critical funds back, but now you can!  

The filing period may have been extended, but that doesn’t mean it’s forever.

    Take this as a sign it’s time to get the money you’re owed from the federal government, even if you’ve already taken PPP loan funds. The sooner you act, the faster you’ll get your tax credit.    

“Okay, but how much of a tax credit are we talking about here? I’m not going to waste my time on $50.”

    It depends! The way we see it, you’ve got two options:   You could DIY it today and give it a go. Most businesses are eligible for $26,000 per W-2 employee. $26k isn’t too shabby.   OR   You could work with our partner Adesso Capital and their team of CPAs who are ERC experts. Their clients receive an average return of $150,000, 20% more than those who go at it alone or with a CPA who isn’t a specialist in the ERC.   (There’s also the third option of doing nothing at all, but why wouldn’t you give this a go? It’s money you’re already owed!)   What could your business do with a windfall of $150,000? Some of our clients have used it to:
  • Expand their location
  • Hire new employees
  • Buy more supplies
  • Launch new products
  Since there are no restrictions on how the ERC can be used, the possibilities are endless.   Click HERE to contact Adesso, let them know RBG referred you, but also don't forget to become a member of RBG, if you are not one already.
