Ep 23: Don’t Fear the 401(k): A MedSpa Owner’s Blueprint for Retirement Plans

Retirement plans might not be the first thing on your mind when running a MedSpa—but they might be one of the smartest investments you can make in your business. Beyond being a financial benefit, they can shape your culture, boost retention, and even unlock tax advantages you didn’t know you qualified for.

If it feels overwhelming or like something “for later,” you’re not alone. But once you understand a few key principles, it starts to make a lot more sense—and a lot more opportunity opens up.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  • Why retirement plans are worth it, even for small teams.
  • How to take advantage of startup tax credits and deductions.
  • What ERISA means for MedSpa owners and fiduciary duties.
  • The benefits of Target Date Funds and QDIAs for employees and owners.
  • How to match your plan to employee risk profiles and turnover.
  • Why defined contribution plans work best for MedSpas.
  • The role of 321 vs. 338 fiduciaries in simplifying your plan.
