As a small business owner, there are legal ways to reduce your tax liability. One option is to take advantage of deduction credits, such as the small business deduction. Your tax advisor can help you identify which credits and deductions are applicable to your business.
   
You can also look into ways to legally minimize your taxable income, such as forming an S Corporation or taking advantage of cash-basis accounting. Finally, you could consider deferring taxes by setting up a retirement fund or by getting a loan from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). However, I would advise that you consult with a qualified tax professional before making any decisions.

As a small business owner, there are several steps you can take to reduce your tax liability and potentially even lower your taxes without getting caught. The most important thing is to keep accurate records of all your income and expenses, including tracking each sale made with customer information. Depending on the volume of sales, you may qualify for various discounts or exemptions offered by state and federal governments which can reduce your overall tax burden. Additionally, make sure you take advantage of any legal deductions that apply to your particular situation - such as home-office or materials/supplies expenses - as these will lower the total income subject to taxes. Finally, if all else fails consult an accountant who will likely be able to find some helpful strategies that could save you money in the long run.
