Hey SEs, let's talk about something
00:02
I know you all have been wondering.
00:04
Can you expend Essence Festival?
00:07
And the short answer is yes, but only if you do it right.
00:10
If you're a freelancer, a content creator,
00:13
or an entrepreneur, and you're coming to network,
00:16
attend panels, create content that supports your business,
00:20
those flights, hotels, and event tickets
00:23
might be tax deductible.
00:25
You just have to make sure that you're documenting everything,
00:27
what you did, who you met, and how it ties back to your work.
00:31
And yes, you must keep those receipts.
00:35
Now, if you work in corporate,
00:37
this is your sign to make a case to your manager.
00:39
Essence Festival is much more than parties,
00:42
though we do love to party.
00:44
It's also professional development.
00:46
It's market research.
00:48
Put together a quick pitch on how attending
00:51
helps you show up better in your role,
00:53
and then offer to bring those insights back to your team.
00:56
So yes, Essence Festival can be a business move,
00:59
and a good time.
01:01
Just don't try to expense brunch at Moro's
01:04
unless you're trying to close a deal over some mac and cheese.
01:07
Okay, bye.
