Jason Watson, CPA
Managing Partner
- WCG Inc.
Jason Watson is the Managing Partner for WCG Inc., a progressive Colorado Springs tax, accounting and consultation firm.
Jason has owned two small businesses in the past and holds both a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Business Administration from the University of Wisconsin – Madison.
Aside from carrying the one in accounting class, his desire is speaking with small business owners and creating a dynamic map for the future. Jason enjoys talking about business planning, corporate structures, S Corp vs LLC concepts, self-employment taxes, health insurance issues and retirement planning. He is quick to point out that while 70% of the all situations can be covered with the basics, every business and person is truly unique. One his Jason-isms is “every house has four walls and a roof, but inside, the things that are personal to you, are different than your neighbor’s.”
Ask a question and have a dry erase board handy, and you’ll see the true passion of a person who not only wants to educate but also wants to see small business owners thrive. While this book on LLCs and S Corporations can be labeled as shameless self-promotion, it truly came from Jason’s heart to help small business owners everywhere. And No! He doesn’t unnecessarily complicate things; while complication is great cocktail party fodder, most often it is the illusion of precision.
Other than sharing a beer with other Colorado Springs CPAs and drooling on the latest IRS Notice, Jason likes dirt biking, boating in Wisconsin, watching the Packers beat the Bears (it never gets old), and running trails in Colorado. He used to also be a pilot for SkyWest Airlines, a United Express airline, but resigned in March 2015 to focus on helping small business owners and taxpayers alike.
Lastly and most importantly, he is a father of three wonderful, amazing and perfect children (posturing is the new past time in Colorado Springs) and is married to WCG’s founder and Senior Partner, Tina Watson, CPA.
