How does the tax reform of 2017 affect small businesses? Posted: 24 Jan 2018 03:17 PM PST So I hear and read to different voices, one that focuses on corporations paying a lot less in taxes and another that describes individual tax filers. But what about those in between? LLCs etc...? [link] [comments] | ||
My Client is Lying, Should I Call Him Out On It? Please help! Posted: 24 Jan 2018 04:44 PM PST Situation: I have a large custom project that a client requested to enlarge even further. The client was supposed to pay me a substantial amount of money on 1/5/18 to fund the project but he failed to do so, which stuck me with flight/travel costs. He disappeared for two weeks, and then emailed me again because he has other work pending from me that is paid for but isn't finalized. He never came through with the funds and now states that he's "in the hospital" due to being hit by a drunk driver but refuses to provide evidence that he is actually in the hospital. His IP address is the same so I know he's lying, he also lies about when he opens my emails, as I have an email tracker that tells me when my clients open my emails. He opens them almost immediately but claims he doesn't open them for days. He doesn't know that I know he's lying. Should I call him out on his BS? I feel like if I do it might make things worse... but another part of me wants to take him to court because he cost me money. He would hate a lawsuit because his projects are very personal in nature and he would want to keep them private. Any advice would be appreciated - just trying to get a client to pay what we agreed upon to finish his project. Not sure if I should continue with the soft ball or if hardball would get better results at this point. [link] [comments] | ||
19 yr old starting lawn care in a couple of months Posted: 24 Jan 2018 02:46 PM PST I'm thinking of starting a little lawn care business, just the basics, to make some extra money. I'm pretty sure I'm overthinking this, but I want to be sure...do I need to actually file this as a business for taxes? Or how do I pay taxes on my revenue? [link] [comments] | ||
When is the best time to follow up with clients? Posted: 24 Jan 2018 10:37 AM PST On Monday I sent a link via email for two galleries of photos for a recent headshot client. These are my first paying clients ever & I need to know a few things.
Any advice is appreciated. [link] [comments] | ||
Why don't business checking accounts yield interest? Posted: 24 Jan 2018 12:44 PM PST We have a business checking account with Wells Fargo. We have ~$80,000 coming in monthly and keep a balance of ~$50,000. The services they provide for us are:
This is very similar to my personal checking account. The only difference is that CapitalOne 360 pays me 1.3% interest. Am I a sucker for working with Wells Fargo? Is everyone a sucker that uses business accounts? [link] [comments] | ||
Utilities - Home Office & Short Term Rental Posted: 25 Jan 2018 12:18 AM PST 2017 Tax Question: I own my house and have a sole LLC and I also do rent out my spare bedroom through Airbnb. I'm claiming a portion of my utilities as an expense under short-term rental, can I also claim it as a portion of a home office? [link] [comments] | ||

Do you think I could get a 5k business loan for investing in ads? Posted: 24 Jan 2018 12:12 PM PST Long story short: I sell t-shirts utilizing platforms such as Etsy.com and Amazon Merch. I started my Etsy shop in August 2017 with 4 orders, totaling $60 and 195 visits. As of today, January 24th, my shop has a total of 11,277 views and 6,724 visits. 66 orders have been placed with a total revenue of $1,418.69. This revenue was used to pay my t-shirt manufacturer, Printful, and that totaled to $940. My profit since then is approximately $400. In regards to Amazon Merch, I've earned $2.94 in July 2017. As of now, my Amazon Merch account has earned approx. $1,430 in royalties. I'm a freelance graphic designer as well. I specialize in graphic design, website design, video design and more! My various projects completed totaled up to approx. $1,000 in 2017. With a small business line of credit, I would like to:

How to buy a company that's not in operations any more Posted: 24 Jan 2018 10:14 PM PST A few years ago, I started a LLC with 5 other friends to work on a big mobile app development contract work. I wrote the proposal and won the work. Each of us had ~17% share of the company. When the contract ended, everyone burned out and my friends don't want to pursue any further contract work any more. We want to dissolve it but instead of just dissolving the company, is there any way I can buy it for like $1 or something? I really want to bring that initial contract work under my portfolio - I have my own digital marketing agency now - so I can use it to pursue further contracts. I don't think my friends would really care. If I want to buy it for $1, do I need to talk to a lawyer or would this be something I can do on my own? [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 24 Jan 2018 05:06 PM PST Say company 1 sells a product that costs $2 to make and they sell it for $10. Company 2 has the same product and costs but sells it for $8. Company 1 decides to lower their price to 7.50 and Company 2 lowers it to $7. Assuming they will keep going lower and engage in a price war, what are strategies to end the price war or prevent it altogether? Thanks! [link] [comments] | ||

In need of CPA, Virginia (LLC/S-corp) startup Posted: 24 Jan 2018 03:48 PM PST Need to get some basic filing information for a startup I run. LLC at state level, S-corp at federal level. Proficient with tax work, just need to review requirements with the two different entities at state & fed level. Please send info, website, etc for validation of your services so we can get a dialogue going. Thanks. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 24 Jan 2018 02:25 PM PST As the title implies I would just like to know somethings about LLC owners who elected themselves to be C corporation. Are you paying yourselves with dividends or are you using W-2? What type of business do you own and how is this advantageous to you [link] [comments] | ||
Looking for a mentor /or resources for my business. Posted: 24 Jan 2018 10:28 AM PST I've started a company and I'm having trouble structuring it's finance. We offer a service so the income is not a constant set. We commission work and contract our workers for the service. We pay by hour for the commissioned work and try to regulate it so there's profit, We're at a point where things are speeding up and we can be making a lot of money. I've not taken any money as I've invested it all back into the company up till now and I'm unsure of how to go about taking and structuring it all out. It's my first company, I'm currently 17 years old and am quite lost to be fair I've never done this. I was hoping amongst all the people on reddit I'd be able to walk away with some resources or advice. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 24 Jan 2018 01:16 PM PST I have been selling on Amazon for years, its a big part of my online business. I do some products FBM, and the main ones are FBA. I was looking into AMS (Amazon Marketing Services) to get better exposure, but to do that you have to be an "Approved Vendor". Apparently that means "Amazon Vendor Express", which is different than being a regular seller. I tried to figure out what the difference is, but its not clear, and I have a million other things to do. Can someone give me an ELI5 of this program? BTW, we are the inventors and manufacturers of our product, a tire changing tool. So we sell our Branded products on Amazon...and only we sell it. Is Vendor Express good for me?

Should I work with clients before the Trade Name Application is approved? Posted: 24 Jan 2018 09:20 AM PST I sent in my Trade Name Application for my web design business to the Department of Assessment and Taxation two weeks ago. I gave them a call today to verify the status and the representative said it takes six weeks for the application to be approved. The problem is that a few clients I knew already approached me to work with them. I'm not sure if I should work with them since my business is still pending approval. But it's still four weeks away and I feel if I don't take the works I might lose them in the future. Should I turn them down now until my business is officially started? Or should I just work with them under my name instead of my business? [link] [comments] | ||
Thinking of starting a mobile catering company Posted: 24 Jan 2018 05:20 AM PST Not really sure where to begin, still in research stages. Was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Also how much would you need to take in per day to keep yourself afloat? (roughly) [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 24 Jan 2018 12:48 PM PST No more than 300 transactions in a year and for amounts less than $250/each. Which one would you go with and why? [link] [comments] |
