The Amazon Strategist Show

AI is powerful.

But when it comes to your finances, it can cost you a lot more than you think.

In this episode, John Cavendish sits down with Matt Remuzzi, Owner of CapForge Accounting, to break down why Amazon sellers should be careful using AI for bookkeeping and tax decisions.

Matt has been in accounting since before the ecommerce boom and now leads a 90+ person team specializing in ecommerce accounting, tax strategy, and business exits.

In this episode you’ll learn:

• Why AI is not ready to replace accountants
• The hidden risks of using AI for tax advice
• How one decision could cost you hundreds of thousands
• Why ecommerce accounting is different from traditional accounting
• The biggest mistakes general CPAs make with Amazon sellers
• How specialized accountants help reduce tax liability
• Why many sellers overpay taxes without realizing it

Matt also explains how ecommerce-specific tax strategies can lead to massive savings, sometimes turning large tax bills into zero.
