Ep. 298: The Money Team Every Business Owner Needs with Danielle Hayden

It’s the start of a brand-new year — new goals, new milestones, and big plans for what’s next.
And let’s be honest…
Chances are, you’re going to need cash to make those plans happen.
Chances are, you’re going to need cash to make those plans happen.
In this episode of Brick and Mortar Visibility, I’m joined by Danielle Hayden, Co-Founder and CEO of Kickstart Accounting, to talk about where small business owners are unknowingly leaving money on the table — and how to keep more cash in your business as we head into tax season.
Danielle brings clarity, confidence, and zero fluff as she breaks down:
- Six overlooked tax write-off categories that can immediately impact your bottom line
- Her three-step framework for managing money like a CEO
- A clear, straightforward answer to when it actually makes sense to become an S-Corp
- The four people every business owner needs on their money team
- Why mixing personal and business finances creates long-term stress
- And how to think about taxes as a year-round strategy, not a once-a-year scramble
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by numbers, unsure if you’re doing things “right,” or frustrated by how much you’re paying in taxes — this conversation will give you practical answers and real confidence.
This is an essential listen for brick-and-mortar and service-based business owners who want to stop winging it with their finances and start building a profitable, sustainable business.
