Maximizing Tax Deductions for Your Multi-Vendor Event | November House Sale

In summary, as a Pampered Chef consultant, you can deduct expenses related to participating in the November House Sale event, such as booth rental fees, travel expenses, and promotional materials. You can also deduct the cost of products you purchased specifically for the event, as long as you have documentation to support the deduction. However, there are limitations on the amount you can deduct, and it is important to keep track of all expenses and have the necessary documentation. You can also deduct expenses for attending other events throughout the year, as long as they are related to your Pampered Chef business and you have the necessary documentation. It is recommended to consult with a tax professional or refer to IRS guidelines for specific rules and limits on deductions for business expenses.

I am doing a multi vendor event at my house in November. If I were to pay a cleaning service to come through the day before, do y'all think that would be tax deductible? I mean it is all about showing a proper image, doncha think? ;)
 
I think it could at least be partly deducted. Ask your tax preparer.
 
Sure, deduct it. Keep your receipt. I'm guessing.

You have no one to consult on Colorado tax laws?

What's your director say?

That would be me.... ;)
 
I had a cleaning service once, and I had to clean before they got there ... and then everything wasn't as deeply clean as i wanted it when they were finished. I could have saved that $100 i gave them and cleaned it myself and treated myself to a spa treatment after. lol
 
With tax deductions I take mine in to be prepared. This way if I do get audited I have them sitting right there with me.

If you do it yourself, I would use the rule of thumb...if in doublt do not deduct it. You are held responsible for everything at audit time.
