Who This Is For

• LLC owners who've heard about S-Corp but don't know if it applies to them

• Anyone paying self-employment tax and wondering if there's a better way

Head to the LLC vs S-Corp Bootcamp course to begin Module 1. Let's get started. 💰

If you're a freelancer, consultant, or solopreneur earning over $50K/year as an LLC, there's a good chance you're paying thousands more in taxes than you need to.

The culprit? Self-employment tax — that 15.3% hit on every dollar of net profit.

The Number Most People Don't Know

There's a specific revenue threshold where electing S-Corp status for your LLC starts saving you serious money. Below it, the costs outweigh the benefits. Above it, you could be saving $5,000-$15,000+ per year.

Quick example:

• $100K net profit as a sole proprietor: ~$15,300 in SE tax

• $100K net profit as an S-Corp (with $55K salary): ~$8,415 in payroll tax

• Annual savings: ~$6,885

And that's a conservative split.

What Most People Get Wrong

❌ "S-Corp is a type of business" — No, it's a tax election for your existing LLC

❌ "Everyone should be an S-Corp" — No, below ~$50K it actually costs you money

❌ "You can pay yourself $1 salary" — The IRS requires reasonable compensation
