Lettuce unlocks tax savings
Converting your LLC to an S Corp lets you be both the owner of your company and its sole employee. This means you pay yourself a salary as an employee, and also collect profit as an owner. Those profits aren’t subject to self-employment tax, saving you thousands.
Here's how Lettuce lowers your self-employment tax
By collecting profits as the Owner of your S Corp, you save thousands on self-employment taxes every year.
*Your actual tax liability depends on more factors (like spouse income or capital gains)
