The Small Business Jobs Act of 2010: Tools, Tips, and Tactics

The recently passed Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 includes a series of small business proposals that small businesses can benefit from immediately. Your clients will look to you to help them understand and benefit from these new opportunities.

Noted author and speaker Bob Keebler, along with his associates Peter Melcher and Michelle Ward, have developed this comprehensive multimedia analysis of the new law, which features a PowerPoint presentation, 50-minute audio presentation, and PDF eBook. Keebler discusses the impact of the bill and the major provisions affecting both individuals and businesses, including:

• Extension of the SBA recovery loan provisions
• A new $30 billion small business lending fund
• An initiative to strengthen innovative state small business programs
• New small business tax cuts 
  • Zero taxes on capital gains from key small business investments
  •  Extension and expansion of small businesses’ ability to immediately expense capital investments
  • Extension of the 50% bonus depreciation
  • A new deduction of health insurance costs for self-employed persons
  • Tax relief and simplification for cell phone deductions
  • An increase in the deduction for entrepreneurs’ start-up expenses
  • A five-year carry back of general business credits
  • Limitations on penalties for errors in tax reporting that disproportionately affect small business

The PowerPoint presentation, audio file, and PDF eBook are all included on one CD. The PowerPoint and audio can be played on your desktop or laptop computer. Or, if you prefer, the audio can be downloaded to your MP3 player for listening in the car, train, or bus.
