The IRS Owes You Thousands: For Work You're Already Doing

Welcome to Barn Talk! In this episode, hosts Sawyer and Tork welcome Brian Hula, a Nebraska native with deep roots in agriculture and a knack for helping businesses save money through smart tax strategy. Brian Hula grew up on a farm working in the hog industry and eventually made his way into the world of sales and insurance, but it’s his expertise in R&D tax credits that brings him to the barn today. From his no-nonsense Midwest background to his hands-on experience across farming, estate planning, and insurance, Brian Hula pulls back the curtain on a topic that could directly put dollars back in your pocket: research and development tax credits. The conversation is packed with stories from the farm, lessons from the business world, and practical steps farmers and small business owners can take to make sure they're not leaving money on the table. Whether you're looking to better understand how these credits work, want insight into the difference between tax deductions and tax credits, or just need a push to re-evaluate your approach to taxes and estate planning, this episode has something for you. So grab a cup of coffee and get ready to learn to take advantage of overlooked opportunities that can help your business thrive.
