The Cincinnati Business and Entrepreneur -- Tax Savings for Business Owners

Greg Noe, MBA will be speaking : Tax Saving Strategies for Small Business Owners.

Gregory S. Noe, MBA owns and operates Edgar Allen Group, Inc., a group of companies that provide accounting, computer, and investment services. Mr. Noe graduated summa cum laude from the University of Cincinnati with a BBA in marketing, management, finance, and insurance and an MBA in marketing and international business. He is an enrolled agent with the IRS, a registered investment advisor with Series 7 & 65 securities licenses, and an Ohio-licensed insurance agent for property, casualty, life and health lines.

One might say Mr. Noe was born to be a business consultant. He learned the complexities of taxation while working at a venture capital packaging firm. After the demise of the investment tax credit and the shakeup of the new ventures industry, Mr. Noe started Professional Business Services, Inc. and began providing consulting, accounting, and payroll services. By 1996 computer consulting had grown so much that Mr. Noe created E-Tech Express, Inc. to provide a full range of computer and internet services including custom builds, repairs, data recovery, networking, software training, web design and web hosting. In 2003, Mr. Noe created Benchmark Financial Services, Inc. to add investment, insurance and financial planning services to the list of offerings. These three firms provide distinctly different types of business services, and when combined, they form The Edgar Allen Group.

Mr. Noe has been involved in various entrepreneurial startup businesses, playing a key role in their business planning. His future plans include becoming licensed to provide credit counseling, loan financing, and real estate services. Mr. Noe can also be found contributing to the community as a guest speaker on topics within his areas of expertise.
