✨ “Can You Write That Off? 7 Everyday Deductions That Might Surprise You”

Running a business means juggling a hundred things — but missing out on tax deductions shouldn’t be one of them. 👀

If you’ve ever asked, “Can I write this off?” — this one’s for you.

Here are 7 everyday deductions that might surprise you and save you money come tax season! 💰💼

1️⃣ Your Phone 📱

If you use your phone for business calls, scheduling, or emails — it’s deductible!

Just keep track of your business vs. personal use (hint: QuickBooks or your phone bill can help).

2️⃣ Coffee for Clients ☕

Meeting with a client at Starbucks? That cup of motivation is a business expense.

💡 Tip: jot down who you met with and the purpose right on the receipt or in your accounting app.

3️⃣ Professional Memberships 💳

Groups like your local Chamber of Commerce, business networks, or professional associations?

Yep — those membership fees are deductible because they help grow your business network and knowledge. 🤝

4️⃣ Business Meals 🍽️

Whether you’re treating a client or grabbing a working lunch with your team,

you can generally deduct 50% of business meals — just make sure it’s work-related and properly documented.

5️⃣ Courses & Education 🎓

Did you take a course to sharpen your skills or level up your business?

That’s deductible too! Tax courses, business webinars, or certifications all count toward your professional growth.

6️⃣ Postage & Shipping 📦

Sending out packages, client documents, or branded merchandise?

Those shipping costs, envelopes, and mailing supplies are all deductible business expenses.

7️⃣ Website & Software 💻

Your website hosting fees, email tools, bookkeeping software, or CRM apps —

all of these are legitimate deductions that keep your business running smoothly.

💡 Final Tip: Keep digital records of all your receipts, even the small ones. The IRS loves proof — and your accountant (that’s me 👋🏽) will love you for staying organized.

Stop leaving money on the table.

If you’re not sure what counts as deductible, it’s time for a tax check-up!
