You’re Paying Too Much Tax (Here’s How To Fix It) with Pali Banwait

You’re probably paying more tax than you need to.

And for a lot of creative business owners, that extra tax can become a real burden and slow down growth.

In this episode, I’m joined by Pali Banwait, who shares some advice on how you can avoid paying more tax than you should be paying.

But our conversation goes a lot deeper than tax.

Pali is the founder of Strive, which helps entrepreneurs set up businesses in Dubai and he’s also founded and invested in many other businesses over the last 20 years, which has given him a unique perspective on what makes a business thrive.

We dive into how to run your business like an entrepreneur and not just a creative, how to spot risk early before things go wrong, and why so many businesses are moving overseas.

If you want to keep more of what you earn, build a healthier business and stop wasting money through avoidable mistakes, this episode is for you.
