I’m Erin Armstrong,
a Business Tax Strategist and Enrolled Agent,
who works with works with established business owners and high-income professionals in an ongoing advisory capacity.
For nearly 15 years, I’ve worked with business owners and high-income professionals across a wide range of industries and situations, helping them navigate tax strategy as decisions are being made—not just at filing time. My work centers on proactive planning that stands up to scrutiny, supports clearer and more confident decisions, and strengthens long-term financial outcomes.
Rather than treating taxes as a once-a-year event, I work with clients year-round through an advisory relationship designed to fit real life. As opportunities, changes, and inflection points arise, clients can understand the tax implications of their choices before moving forward.
Because business, personal, and investment decisions are deeply connected, my approach considers the whole picture. I help clients understand how today’s choices affect not only their tax position, but what they can reinvest, build next, and create for themselves and their families.
Long-term relationships are central to how I practice. Working with clients over many years—through growth, investments, restructures, transitions, and changes in life—has shaped a practical, grounded approach to tax strategy that evolves as their circumstances do.
I also see tax strategy as part of good stewardship—not simply reducing tax, but helping clients use what they’ve built intentionally and direct their resources toward the goals, opportunities, and people that matter most.
Ultimately, my role is to help clients make informed decisions with clarity and confidence—and use what they’ve built to support the people they care about and fuel the life they want to live.
What guides my work…
- Clarity creates confidence. When you understand what’s driving your numbers—and why—you’re able to make decisions from a place of confidence. Clear financials, intentional tax planning, and defined next steps lead to empowered, aligned decisions that support your goals.
- Tax strategy should be addressed before tax filing. By the time a tax return is prepared, the opportunity to shape the outcome has largely passed. Your tax liability is determined by decisions made throughout the year—how income is earned and paid, what investments were (and were not) made, how entities are structured, how compensation is handled, and how activity is documented. When those decisions are made intentionally, filing becomes confirmation, not limitation. For related decision points, review these strategic tax questions for business owners and high-income professionals.
- Tax advisory must adapt as your financial picture changes. Even a well-designed plan needs attention as your life evolves, priorities shift, and tax laws change. Ongoing tax advisory ensures your strategy remains practical, aligned with your business, and able to withstand scrutiny over time.
- Strategy only works when it’s executable. Plans that look good on paper don’t help if they can’t be implemented. The best strategies align with how your business actually operates, can be supported with proper documentation, and are realistic to maintain over the long term.
- Profit matters more than growth. More revenue doesn’t automatically mean a healthier business. Many owners grow sales only to experience higher taxes, tighter cash flow, and increased complexity behind the scenes. Real progress happens when growth is paired with a strategy that creates sustainably higher profit margins.
- Most people are balancing more than one goal at a time. More than likely, you’re working to grow a profitable business while also paying yourself more, protecting your time, supporting your family, and doing work that feels meaningful. Effective tax strategy accounts for the full financial picture — including business income, investments, household decisions, and long-term goals — not just top-line growth.
Trusted strategy. Meaningful savings. Confidence for what’s next.
As my business has grown, Erin has been a trusted strategic partner. Since 2019, she has helped me proactively assess tax strategy, entity structure, growth and financial systems as things have evolved, ensuring I’m always set up for what’s next. Her work has consistently resulted in meaningful savings, but just as importantly, it’s brought clarity, confidence, and ease to running my business. It’s priceless.
