Built on the Job Site, Not in a Boardroom.

Skip Nagel Founder & Owner, Cashflow Business Incentives

I didn't start my career behind a desk.

Before I ever looked at the tax code, I was wearing work boots.

After serving in the Air Force, I went straight into the dirt, building commercial swimming pools in Florida. I eventually secured my General Contractor’s licenses in California and Arizona, expanding my own commercial and residential builds across the country—from North Carolina to the West Coast. I know exactly what it takes to make payroll, deal with fluctuating material costs, and fight for tight margins on a job site.

After decades of building businesses and leading national sales teams, I realized something critical: the government offers massive tax incentives for the exact problem-solving tradesmen do every day, but corporate CPAs were completely missing them.

For the last 10+ years, I’ve dedicated my focus to helping SMBs—specifically construction and specialty trade owners—recover the capital they’ve left on the table.

I understand your business because I’ve lived it. Let’s find out how much cash flow we can free up for your operation.

My Philosophy

I believe every contractor, shop owner, and fabricator deserves to keep the capital they’ve earned. You take the risks, you build the infrastructure, and you deal with the headaches of running crews. My approach is simple: I use my knowledge of the tax code to pull your money back from the IRS and put it back into your operating account where it belongs.

Why We Do This

My greatest satisfaction isn't crunching numbers—it’s handing a business owner a six-figure tax credit that allows them to buy a new piece of heavy equipment or expand their shop. Every dollar we pull back from the government represents a new hire, a new truck, or a wider profit margin for your business. I stay ahead of changing tax laws and shifting IRS regulations so you don't have to.

Track Record

Over my career, my team and I have:

Successfully recovered millions of dollars in tax credits for SMBs across the country.

Specialized specifically in the trades: Construction, Automotive, Agriculture, and Manufacturing.

Maintained a 100% success rate in credit validation and IRS compliance.

Secured tax liability reductions that standard CPAs completely overlooked.
