We're thrilled to welcome Jack Allison to the BAAP team as our newest Senior Tax Advisor! 🎉

Jack brings over 25 years of tax and accounting experience — including owning and running his own CPA firm serving 250+ clients across complex tax situations. But what really sets Jack apart is that he's lived the small business journey himself, running multiple ventures in the hospitality and automotive sectors. He knows what it means to make payroll, manage cash flow, and make tough calls.

Jack is also a proud veteran with 27+ years of service in the Illinois Air and Army National Guard, including two combat deployments to Afghanistan as a Special Operations JTAC and a third as a NATO partner force advisor. That background brings a level of discipline, integrity, and steady leadership that our clients feel from day one.

If you're looking for a trusted advisor — not just a tax preparer — Jack is your guy.

Welcome to the team, Jack! 🙌

💡 You own a commercial building — but are you leaving thousands in tax deductions on the table?

Most property owners default to a 39-year depreciation schedule and never look back. Cost segregation may let you accelerate those deductions and put real cash back into your business — sooner than you think.

Here's a peek at what our latest blog covers:

✅ How cost segregation can pull forward deductions and improve near-term cash flow
✅ Why bonus depreciation and proper timing can dramatically change your first-year tax impact
✅ The one planning step most owners skip — that can cost them at the time of sale

This isn't just a tax trick. It's a strategic tool that touches your cash flow, your lender conversations, and your long-term wealth.

💸 Your CPA should be making you money — not just counting it.

If your tax advisor only shows up at year-end, you're leaving real money on the table.

A few things growth-minded business owners know that others don't:

✅ Tax decisions made *before* the year ends protect far more than last-minute filings ever can
✅ Owner pay, distributions, and tax reserves should work as a system — not an afterthought
✅ Decision-ready books don't just help you file — they help you grow, borrow, and exit smarter

💡 Are you sitting on untapped income inside your own business?

Most business owners don’t realize their intellectual property could be generating separate income streams—and potentially improving tax efficiency—when structured correctly.

Here’s what you need to know:
• Not all income is treated the same—royalties may be taxed differently than active business income
• The way your IP is structured can impact both tax exposure and long-term business value
• Done right, royalties can turn existing assets into scalable, passive income opportunities

Curious how this could apply to your business?

Your CFO might be doing everything right… but still missing what matters most.

If your finance leader is focused on reporting the past, you could be leaving growth, cash flow stability, and long-term value on the table.

Here’s what most business owners overlook:
• Reporting ≠ strategy — historical data alone won’t guide future decisions
• The right metrics go beyond the P&L (think cash flow timing, tax exposure, ROI)
• Strategic thinking often requires outside perspective—not just internal training

The difference between an accountant and a true advisor? One records history. The other helps you build your future.
