Expanding your business to multiple locations is an exciting milestone. It’s a clear sign of success and opens up new opportunities for growth. That said, expansion comes with increased complexity, especially when it comes to managing sales tax across different jurisdictions. This is where DAVO steps in, offering a robust solution to ease the administrative burden that often accompanies multi-unit growth. 

Let’s explore how DAVO can help your business scale efficiently while keeping sales tax compliance simple and worry-free.

The challenges of multi-unit expansion

Before we dive into solutions, it’s important to understand the unique challenges that come with operating multiple business units:

  • Varying tax rates and rules: Different locations often mean different tax jurisdictions, each with its own rates and regulations.
  • Increased reporting complexity: More units mean more transactions and more complex reporting requirements.
  • Staffing and training issues: Ensuring consistent tax collection practices across all locations can be daunting.
  • Time management: As your business grows, so does the time required to manage sales tax compliance.
  • Risk of errors: With more moving parts, the risk of mistakes in calculation or filing increases.
