SUMMARY:Employee Retention Tax Credit and Your Business
DESCRIPTION:COVID-19 has been a challenge for all of us. As the world shut down the economy came to a halt\, leaving the future of many businesses in a precarious position. As we begin to find normalcy again\, businesses now have to focus on recovering and fortunately\, several government programs are easing this process. \nOne such program is the Employee Retention Credit or ERC\, which is a generous stimulus program designed to bolster those businesses that were able to retain their employees during this challenging time. Due to the extremely complex tax code and qualifications\, it is severely underutilized. \nAt ERC Specialists\, our goal is to help you get the maximum Employee Retention Credit (ERC) credit available to you. With new IRS guidelines and changing rules for employers\, tackling this monumental task is no place for a novice.   \nVerner Dixon has spent many years of his career with IBM\, Wang\, Gartner (Meta) Group holding executive positions in business development\, consulting services\, marketing and sales executive.  He also ran his own public relations firm working with the entertainment industry focusing on audio-visual products and services. \nVerner Dixon was\, responsible for direct sale activities and marketing programs for commercial and government clients.  His responsibilities include the introduction and implementation of new technology\, innovative ideas concerning management techniques\, employee incentive/training programs\, product development\, marketing strategies\, advertising campaigns\, sales promotions and customer service policies. Verner recruited contractors\, hired\, trained\, supervised\, and motivated personnel to increase client base and gross annual revenues. \nHe has published articles on robotic camera systems in Broadcast Engineering magazine and on disaster recovery in Casino Enterprise Management magazine. \n \nFunded in part through a Cooperative Agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration.
