Do I Need A Business License For My T-Shirt Business?

[@lwhite530]

The best way to start is a business is to learn through trial and error. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. It happens and it makes you stronger. I have failed so many times but I still pick my ass up and try try again. ☺️

[@StanBanks]

That’s the best way to succeed! Fail to success!

Setting up an LLC or Filling out a W9 for a TIN if you are a freelancer will open you up to doing corporate work and high paying jobs. You can do anything from dealing with big companies to bidding on city jobs, vending, etc. The other benefit is getting access to the top tier distributors which in turn opens you up to the best prices. You become the middle man. I used Zen Business to set up my LLC 2 years ago and I haven’t regretted it. There’s a lot of responsibilities that comes with this.

[@distinctperformancellc]

Stan Your are correct. You don't want to play with IRS.. I owned a trucking company for 15 years in New Jersey and Florida till I parked my trucks in feb 2020. Had my llc and all my insurance that I needed. the insurance is to cover your but if your going to have a store, so get it. Never know if someone wants to sue you because of the shirts not being what they expected, which can happen. If that costumer want to be evil they can contact the BBB and that will strike a red flag with IRS. So If you are receiving any amount in check or credit cards it must be claimed. Their is always a paper trail that the government follows. They may not get you now, but they will wait till its a decent amount to go after you. I got audit twice in the 15 years so always keep your files and receipt straight by month and years, they can go back 7 years on your paperwork. Because I had an LLC already it was easy to transfer to my new business and get a resale lic. Listen to Stan he is tell the truth go legit and pay your taxes.. Talk to an accountant and he will steer you in the right direction.. Better to be safe than sorry! God bless everyone and have a safe New Years!

Thanks for stopping by!!!

[@lightningtreeband]

Thank you for the information. My first try was foiled by a bad printer that only made one transfer before it died. I want to try again. My daughter just had my second grand kid she asked me to design a logo for her dive biz and encouraged me to try again. The people I designed the logo for were very happy with it and the big magnetic signs for their truck but I was unable to deliver on the T Shirts because of the printer.

[@EE-dn9og]

Good vid, I was with a big cartel and ig page. After 2 months was moving 40 shirts a week but then the printer started bugging me for legitimacy and stuff which then made my hobby fizzle out. Good points here to keep in mind and hopefully it reinspires me

[@Itsmy4te]

After watching yiur episode with the Tax Guy, I went and got myself a DBA. Great info. Definitely don't want to go sideways with IRS

[@StanBanks]

Get a separate account for the business as well

[@brandons8026]

Love all the game you been giving out, I been studying and taking notes, soon as I get back from my vacation I’m getting my dba, than get my sellers license, and getting my hot press machine, my Roland vinyl cutter, my printer etc.. I look forward to starting and one day I’m going to fuck with you I promise remember me Brandon Sykes

[@AOD92]

This was a very informative. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Definitely checking the self employed tax guy after ur video. All i know is that i wanna b legitimate if I wanna get those big contracts.

[@JuztN_Illuxion]

I buy a lot of shirts that are blank and hoodies and I put my own designs on them and I don't need a license or anything to sell them if I don't sell online. People contact me by phone or email and want to buy one of my shirts. I meet up with the and they buy one of my shirts with cash and I'm California you are allowed to do that.

[@therealkiyut4585]

Most of the time if you get a llc . you have to have an operational agreement which helps them not sue you personally.

[@StanBanks]

Yes true

[@bingo8789]

My man said Delaware. I had to stop the video 😄😄😄😄 I forgot that was in America 😂😂😂😂

[@kuskatanmorales5453]

good info . did you get any business credit cards and are the worth it ?

[@designhub360customapparel]

Paying creditors out of personal bank accounts is called piercing the corporate veil.

[@StanBanks]

That’s why I need you guys smarter then me around lol.

[@designhub360customapparel]

@@StanBanks No I'm not smarter. I just started building business credit a year ago. I still do dumb things that can get me caught up like paying out of my personal bank account to creditors but I'm getting ready to stop.

[@BloodSweatnBass]

Can you make a video addressing copyright © & trademark ™️ laws and address how folks build an entire business off of images from the internet without any knowledge of how they could get sued. If you have already made this type of video, then thank you but if you haven’t Im curious as to why?

[@StanBanks]

Your curious as to why I haven’t made this kind of video?

[@StanBanks]

But I’m going to be making a video on my opinions and soon I will have a expert on to cover the topic.

[@BloodSweatnBass]

@@StanBanks Thanks....there are a whole lot of folks out here who are misinformed about etsy files they purchase, google images, different types of fonts etc. Also about companies who actually look for folks using their brands images and profitting from it. As more and mor folks get into building business who have zero design skill and or design software. It’s important folks be informed before all they run out and get vinyl cutters heat press, printers etc. the 1st investment should not be equipment it should be made into getting some real design skills down perhaps classes and software on how to create and not how to grab an image slap some words and all of a sudden you can open up a design studio and start a business. That’s probably the worst business strategy for a printing, t shirt, sublimation silk screening or any kind of business

Do you need a Register Agent to handle all your incoming business mail , is it required by law when applying for LLC? Just want to make sure it is not an "up sell" option when people tried to file for LLC online!

[@robertolivares4700]

Yea it’s required by law to have a register agent when having an LLC and that register agent can be anyone but they just need to be available from 9-5 business hours and be on top of their shit incase any important documents or emails come in. And they have to be available those hours because you never know when you’re be contacted or it’s easier to just have whatever LLC company you go with be your register agent cuz those people are trained for that job and will for sure be available during those hours
