Stationery is a Great Place to Start But - Self Employment in the Arts
Licensing crosses over so many industries itself, which adds to the intricacies of the business. Since you can license your creative work for a multitude of product categories, all of those products and their various industries, such as stationery, are the vertical markets intersecting the licensing industry. SURTEX has really moved from its original purpose of selling designs for fabrics to showcasing artists and their agents for all types of product manufacturing. This year for the first time, SURTEX and the Stationery show were held not only at the same time, but on the same trade show floor, and it seemed to be really ...

A couple of years ago in 2008, I attended a weekend seminar here in Halifax hosted by Visual Arts Nova Scotia titled “Email is So Dead!” The main presenter was Tiiu Poder and the audience of about a dozen were people like me, artists and members of VANS. Likely one other common experience also linked our group. We’re baby boomers. Yes boomers, both awkward and cranky about our lack of understanding where web technology is going and how we are missing the boat. Fortunately, Tiiu Poder is such a gifted and patient presenter with keen insights and experience in the arts and in the business of art. We were invited to take ...

As we have been predicting, the federal government is moving to implement legislation that moves us toward a policy of socialized entrepreneurship. The National Dialogue on Entrepreneurship reports that Access to Capital for Entrepreneurs (ACE) Act of 2007 is moving forward. Why is this bad? It sets up a system that creates the potential of government picking winners and bureaucrats using the entrepreneurial economy as a tool for social engineering. Instead, we should let markets work. The bill gives tax credits for investment in small businesses. Simple enough as it is written now. But we all know what happens. First ...

Dallas personal injury lawyer Julie Johnson’s foray into the fight against private, for-profit colleges began with a handful of would-be interior designers. A few years ago, a group of students had come to Johnson for help: They had forked over thousands of dollars at a private, for-profit school, but their non-accredited course work didn’t pass muster for an interior design license. Since then, Johnson has devoted most of her practice to hounding “proprietary” or “career” colleges for failing to make good on their claims. She’s not alone in her focus. Career colleges find themselves in ...

My question concerns and LLC with two owners. One owner works only for the LLC; I understand that this owner must pay the 15.3% self employment tax on the first $106,800 and then the 2.9% medicare thereafter. The other owner has a regular job in addition to his share in the LLC and we assume that his regular job pays more than the $106,800 - in which case his employer is currently paying half of the Social Security and Medicare and he is paying the other half on his salary. Now that the LLC is profitable, what self employment tax would the second partner have to pay on share of profits from the LLC and would this reduce the ...
