    SAN RAFAEL, CA, February 23, 2009 /Accounting PR News/ -- On Saturday, Feb. 21, at 11am CST, tax reduction expert Murray Bradford appeared on "Let's Talk Success with The Marketing Lady," part of BlogTalkRadio, a provider of thousands of Internet talk radio shows: For his 30-minute guest spot, Bradford discussed strategies that small business owners can employ to get a tax deduction for taking a cruise, the subject matter of his article titled "How Safe-Harbor Rules Can Audit-Proof Your Cruise to the Caribbean," available in the Tax Reduction Letter.

"Many unconventional tax deductions are available to the self-employed," said Bradford. "But the very fact that these deductions are seemingly unfathomable means millions of small business owners each year end up giving away to the government more of their profits than they need to. The key is to acquire tax law knowledge. Fortunately, this is not as difficult as it may seem."

Publisher of the Tax Reduction Letter (http://www.taxreductionletter.com) every month, tax reduction expert Murray Bradford, CPA, has years of experience in developing and implementing small business tax reduction strategies. A former accountant for Price Waterhouse, Bradford is founder of several tax reduction strategies businesses. Quoted in national publications such as The Wall Street Journal and on national programming such as Financial News Network and CNBC, Bradford has helped more than 500,000 self-employed taxpayers realize an average of $17,700 in new tax deductions. His popular courses provide actionable small business tax advice.

In his interview with Tarsha Polk, host of "Let's Talk Success with The Marketing Lady" (http://www.blogtalkradio.com/letstalksuccess), Bradford answered a number of questions small business owners may have not only about tax law and definitions in general, but also about the particular matter of writing off a cruise as a business expense. For instance, he explained what safe harbor is, why it is important, and how it applies when a small business owner takes a cruise.

"Income taxes follow a set of rules," said Bradford. "Anyone who can gain a grasp of these can learn to take deductions for expense that might otherwise seem impossible. In most cases of allowable deductions, being able to show that an activity is at least partially business-related is usually the key. Then, as long as small business owners can maintain meticulous records, tax deductions are theirs to have."

Bradford noted that the potential tax savings that such knowledge yields more than offset the cost of "Tax Strategies for the Self-Employed (2009)," his annual course designed to help one-owner and husband-and-wife businesses navigate the maze of rules they must follow to properly determine and report their income:
