Business owner advertising giveaways

[pbarber]

If I am advertising my business through giveaways of the service I perform, is there any part of this that is deductible on my taxes?  My thought is no because my giveaway is basically my time, unless I would pay someone to do the service for me in addition to their regular pay.  Hope that question makes sense.

You cannot deduct the value of your time, if that is what you are asking.
