Move Beyond Compliance. Plan Intentionally. Build Lasting Wealth.
Tax planning should not begin at filing time—and it should never be limited to looking backward. Yet many small business owners operate with a reactive approach, reviewing taxes only after the year has ended and opportunities have already passed.
At RC Jones & Associates, tax strategy is an ongoing, forward-looking process. We work with you throughout the year to align tax planning with business decisions, cash flow needs, and long-term personal goals—so taxes become an integrated part of your growth strategy rather than an annual obligation.
Our goal is simple: help you retain more of what you earn and deploy it intentionally toward what matters most.

A Proactive, Year-Round Planning Relationship
Effective tax strategy requires context, timing, and communication. Rather than focusing solely on compliance, we help you anticipate the tax impact of decisions before they are made—allowing planning to support growth instead of reacting to it.
As part of a collaborative advisory relationship, we evaluate how your business operates today and how it is expected to evolve. This allows us to design strategies that adjust as your revenue, staffing, and objectives change.
Customized Strategies Built Around Your Business
No two businesses—and no two owners—are the same. That’s why our tax strategy work is customized, not templated. Depending on your circumstances, planning may include:
Entity Optimization
We evaluate whether your current structure continues to make sense as your business grows. For many owners, this includes assessing S-Corporation elections or other structural changes to improve tax efficiency while maintaining compliance and flexibility.
Strategic Credit Identification
We look beyond standard deductions to identify federal and state-level credits—such as R&D or Missouri-specific incentives—that are often overlooked by generic software or purely compliance-focused approaches.
Proactive Deduction Planning
Rather than discovering deductions after the year closes, we help you plan the timing of purchases, investments, and expenses so tax benefits align with cash flow and operational goals.
Wealth Acceleration & Personal Alignment
Tax strategy should support not only the business, but also the owner. We help coordinate planning with retirement strategies and long-term personal objectives—so today’s decisions contribute to future flexibility and legacy.

Tax preparation documents the past. Tax strategy shapes the future.
While accurate filing remains essential, strategic planning focuses on how current-year decisions influence retained profit, liquidity, and growth capacity. For business owners in Liberty and the Kansas City area, understanding this distinction can materially change outcomes—often resulting in meaningful increases in retained earnings and improved financial confidence.
At RC Jones & Associates, we analyze the full financial picture—from payroll and compensation structure to personal income goals—to ensure tax planning supports the broader strategy of the business.
