In this episode, I break down the essentials of self-employment tax and explore how forming an S Corporation can unlock valuable tax benefits. I walk through key tax strategies, what makes an S Corp worth considering, and why understanding state regulations matters for self-employed entrepreneurs like us. I also highlight how strong bookkeeping, proper payroll, and strategic financial planning help protect your business income and maximize your tax return. If you're navigating entrepreneurship and want to keep more of what you earn, this episode offers practical, real-world guidance.   Also mentioned in this episode: 00:00 Understanding Self-Employment Tax 03:25 The Benefits and Risks of S Corporations 06:20 Criteria for Forming an S Corporation 11:55 Navigating State Regulations and Compliance   Takeaways Self-employment tax is 15.3% for self-employed individuals. An S Corporation can help save on self-employment taxes if criteria are met. Forming an S Corp requires running payroll and compliance with employment laws. You cannot undo an S Corp election for five years. Check state regulations as some may tax back S Corp benefits. Consistent profit over $60,000 is a key criterion for forming an S Corp. Bookkeeping is essential when operating as an S Corp. Having more money than time indicates readiness for an S Corp. Professional guidance is crucial when forming an S Corp.

In this episode of the Sunlight Podcast, I'm unpacking some of the biggest myths I hear about forming an LLC. If you're self-employed or thinking about business formation, it's so important to understand what an LLC really is—and what it isn't. I talk through common misconceptions about taxes, liability protection, whether an LLC makes you a “real” legal entity, and how much ongoing accounting or paperwork is actually needed. I also share why business insurance is still essential (yes, even if you have an LLC), and how good financial advice can help you make smart choices for your business. Plus, I give a sneak peek at my upcoming book, Taxes for Humans, where I go even deeper into LLCs, business structures, and all the stuff no one teaches you when you become self-employed.   00:00 Introduction to LLC Myths 04:43 Myth 1: LLCs Change Your Taxes 08:28 Myth 2: LLCs Make Your Business Official 10:25 Myth 3: LLCs Are the Only Protection 13:12 Myth 4: LLCs Are Set It and Forget It   If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and share it!

On today's episode of the podcast I chat with my legal intern, Madeline Cintron, about the State by State Business Blueprint. Madeline has been working to create a resource I started called the "State by State Business Blueprint." This is a resource that is currently only available inside my signature course, Unf*ck Your Biz. In the program I share my business blueprint which is made up of 14 steps, starting with 1) Check for name availability for your LLC, 2) Get your registered agent, 3) Form your LLC but these 14 steps can vary by state. The terminology also varies by state, for example California calls your annual payment an annual franchise tax, but some states refer to it as an annual report fee or annual fee. The point of the blueprint is to give my students the right language to look for in their state and give the direct links on where to go online to file your LLC in your state so you don't find yourself going to Legal Zoom and instead know how to do it yourself. It also makes our internal process easier if you choose to hire us at the Not Your Average Law Firm to file your LLC for you. To give you an example, let's dive into New York. When filing an LLC in that state, you'll want to 1) Get a registered agent, 2) Choose your business name and check availability/apply to reserve your name, 3) Determine entity type and file articles, 4) Get your EIN, 5) Get your seller's permit aka certificate of authority, 6) Get your business license or tax certificate, 7) Get your DBA, called a "certificate of assumed name" in New York and then we move into the post-formation steps. *Please note that they steps are for New York and not for Florida has briefly referenced after they were listed. The same goes for fees. There's the filing fee and the annual fee. In some states there's a business license fee, in some states there's the fictitious business name license fee, it varies state to state. What I've typically found is that states with high filing fees have low annual fees and vice versa. For example, in California our minimum annual fee is $800 but our filing fee is only $70.

For 30 years, Village Enterprise has been working to help people at the bottom of the pyramid lift themselves out of poverty. A randomized control trial begun in 2014 demonstrated that its programs worked. That evidence led to the nonprofit serving as the first recipient of a development impact bond (DIB). Winnie Babra Auma, vice president of programs for the growing international organization, was raised in poverty and has risen from volunteer to executive leadership, helping to accelerate its growth and impact. She joined me for this inspiring episode.Village Capital’s Unique ProgramSome NGOs find working with the poorest of the poor to be too difficult, leaving them to their own limited resources. Not so with Village Enterprise.“We use what we call the Poverty Probability Index Survey to ensure that we’re reaching the very bottom of the pyramid,” Winnie says, noting that the nonprofit excludes households earning more than $1.90 per person per day.She describes four key steps, after the screening, for the Village Enterprise program:Training. Village Enterprise provides training to people who have never operated a business, helping them learn skills that enable them to earn more money. The program also includes mentoring for the first year after launching a business (see step three below).Micro-Grants. Rather than make a microloan of $180, the organization makes grants, typically in two rounds. An initial $120 is followed by another $60 if the business is going well. This grant approach allows nervous first-time entrepreneurs to move forward without fearing what happens if they can’t repay a loan.Business Formation. Three households, having each designated a representative (most often a woman), join together to form a “small business group” and launch a business with their grant money.Savings Groups. Ten participants form a “savings group” to serve as a small village bank. They collect savings from the members and make loans available to group members when it makes economic sense, creating a small financing mechanism for the businesses.Given that households at the bottom of the pyramid are severely resource constrained, one goal of the program is to increase spending. To middle-income ears, this sounds wrong. Savings and investments should be the goal, we think. That ignores that the family was going without food, clothing or education. Increasing consumption improves their lives.Increasing assets, including not only financial assets but productive ones—including better housing—is a second goal.The randomized control trial that spanned several years beginning in 2014 demonstrated that the program works to achieve these two objectives.To support this vital work, subscribe.The Development Impact BondBecause of its success, Village Enterprise was selected as a recipient for the first development impact bond in Africa focused on poverty alleviation.These financial structures radically change international development finance by putting results squarely at the center of decisions.Nine lenders funded the bond with a total of $4.32 million, allowing Village Enterprise to implement its program as a service provider. The lenders made the loans with the understanding that they would be repaid only if Village Enterprise reached the required performance targets.Three “outcome payers” agreed to set money aside to repay the loans if the program reached those performance targets. If Village Enterprise’s program had not achieved the objectives, the intermediary holding the funds would have returned the money to the outcome payers to use for something else—something that does work.Village Enterprise achieved the targets. See the third-party report verifying it here. As a result, the outcome payers’ funding went to repay the lenders. The three outcome payers are happy because their money drove the impact they wanted. The nine lenders are happy because they got their money back with interest and can make new loans to do more good. Village Enterprise is happy because they got paid to deliver an effective service.Most importantly, the people served are happy because they got help that enabled them to increase their consumption and assets.Winnie provided a summary of the results:4,766 businesses started14,100 first-time entrepreneurs trained95,000 lives impacted“We were able to increase spending on food, on health, on education by 6.3 percent. We were able to increase assets such as livestock, housing saving and other business supplies within the households by 5.8 percent,” Winnie says. “And to put this in context, this was during the pandemic.”“Moving towards outcome-based or results-based funding is going to be an important path if we’re really serious about ending extreme poverty,” Winnie adds.Winnie’s Story“The work that I do at Village Enterprise is very close to my heart because I have also come from very humble backgrounds,” Winnie says. “I have experienced extreme poverty myself.”“I have watched my mother make tough decisions. I’ve watched women make tough decisions around what you prioritize. Is it food, education or health?” Winnie says.She also saw the painful sexism forced on parents who see boys as having greater economic potential. “Sometimes, as a girl growing up, I actually got to be on the other side of life where… a boy child was prioritized over me.”Looking back, she sees how people and organizations helped her rise. “I’ve been a dreamer,” she says. “And, you know, along the path of my life, I felt like there were helping hands put along my journey.”One of the big ones was a scholarship from the Carnegie Corporation of New York that funded her college education, qualifying her to become a teacher.Winnie acknowledges, however, that she didn’t have the patience required of a teacher whose impact may not be visible for a decade or more. “I wanted to change the world,” she says. “I wanted to do something so that girls would not have to go through what I have gone through, so that mothers would not go have to go through what my mother went through, so that mothers could have options and really meet their needs and provide for their families.”When Village Enterprise was working in the area where Winnie grew up, she paid close attention, focusing on opportunities to get involved.When the nonprofit posted a volunteer position, she jumped at the chance, quitting her full-time teaching job.She has risen from volunteer to country director for Uganda, where she grew the organization and its impact about tenfold, to her current executive role heading programs.She has seen how using her voice to spread optimism and positivity has become her superpower in this work.How to Develop Your Voice to Spread Optimism and Positivity As a SuperpowerWinnie related a story that illustrated the power of her voice. She visited a small business group where the husband of one of the participating women had taken her grant money, leaving the other participants frustrated and ready to quit.“We went into this group, we listened, and I started to probe and ask questions,” Winnie says. “And then I got up and shared my personal story.”“You see, you look at me,” She says. “I am the woman today because my mother made sacrifices. My community members made sacrifices. People in the world, the Carnegie Corporation, gave resources to support me.”Then she delivered her brand of positivity and optimism:You are part of the Village Enterprise Program today because there are so many people outside in the world that are believing in you. They want you to invest these resources into a business that generates profits so that you can support your own family. They don't want this money back. The only thing they want from you is that you're using it in ways that are profitable to generate more income that supports you and your entire family.The speech worked. The man who took the money said, “I had never thought about it that way.”Winnie says, “I didn’t tell this man what to do. I only use my story and my experience to invite to inspire him to go do good for himself, his wife and his children.”Winnie says that to be effective in using your voice, you also have to develop empathy and listen as she did to the members of the group. Empathy is crucial for working among people challenged by poverty, she says, “because poverty is complex.”If you follow Winnie’s example, you can use your voice to share optimism that can become your superpower, allowing you to do more good.

Hello! Welcome to the Analytive Podcast. Today for our guest I have Brian Hanning. Brian is a lawyer specializing in business-related law. I asked Brian to come on the podcast for two reasons: First, as a business owner, I had questions about many of the legal aspects of running a business. Brian was gracious with his time, and I'm grateful for his ability to explain complex legal topics simply. If you're starting or running a small business, this is a great foundation. The second reason I wanted to have him on is: I get a lot of questions from other entrepreneurs about corporate formation, trademarks, and other business-related issues. I'm by no means an expert, so this interview with Brian is something I hope to pass along to them. Here's the deal: If you're curious about forming an LLC, whether you should get a trademark, and other types of legal questions, you should listen to this podcast. If nothing else, it will give you a solid foundation that could potentially save you hours of time talking to a lawyer (which also means hundreds of dollars at their billable rate). We're doing this episode in a two-part series. Part 1 Focuses on corporate formation, types of legal entities, and other foundational information. We also briefly discuss trusts and we take a rabbit trail into how people around the world are using shady tactics to hide business activity. In Part 2 we dive into IP protection including trademarks, copyrights, and other intellectual property issues. We talk about when you should and should not think about filing the various types of intellectual production as well as what you might expect to reasonably pay. If you do have business legal needs, be sure to reach out to Brian. He can be found at ThatDamnLawyer.com. Props for a great domain name, Brian. ****************************** The Analytive Podcast is created and hosted by Tyler Brooks at Analytive.

His most recent business is BetterLegal, where he is automating the professional services arena. “a formula for building your business… If you are starting a business, you should develop and then market, and then develop and then market. And do equal parts of both because… Too many people think that their service is better, their product is better, and that might be true. I know ours is but it is not out there enough. And so, if you are starting from scratch, it should be… And develop doesn't have to be software it can be developing processes, developing what your services look like or your culture. But develop in equal amounts as you market. And make sure that you do as much marketing as you do development because if you don't tell anybody, if you don't get that out there then it doesn't matter how much time you spend on the development part”…[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-lTa

Do you find contracts, insurance and the legal side of your small business a bit daunting? Well, this episode is JUST for you. My special guest, Rachel Brenke takes the fear out of legally protecting yourself and your business, breaking it all down in simple, practical terms. Rachel's genius is in helping creative entrepreneurs with understanding their legal needs and shares her wisdom on The Simplifiers Podcast. Because as Rachel says, “ignorance of the law is not a defense of the action.” Here's how to (simply) protect yourself and your small business. 
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: • Common legal mistakes entrepreneurs make such as using others intellectual property and causing “copyright infringement” • Why “re-gramming” someone else's photo (on Instagram) that they found on Google is illegal and the NUMBER 1 thing Rachel has been dealing with in her law business • Mary shares a horrifying tale of a woman in Egypt who stole The Simplifiers logo and name from a Google search and starting her own company...and how she stopped it • Why you need to have a line item in your budget for legal stuff (hint: it's a non-negotiable!) • What is the “Legal Trifecta” that ALL businesses should have in place to protect your business. Think of these three things as hurdles between you and your clients so that, if a problem arises, they have to go over them before they can get to you personally. • Business Formation - forming a separate legal entity so if you are implicated and liable, you personally, your family or your home assets will not be in jeopardy.      • Sole Proprietorship (NOT recommended)      • LLC (the majority of businesses)      • Corporation • Liability Insurance (homeowners will not protect you!) • Legal documents (website terms and conditions and privacy policy are both non-negotiable in Rachel's opinion) • Tips for drafting your website's Privacy Policy and contracts for services (terms and language to include when it comes to attorney's fees) • How legal documents are your “front line,” enabling clients to see you as being professional and building confidence in you and your business • Why it's best to acquire BOTH a lawyer AND a CPA • The latest tips on GDPR regulations in Europe and how you can and cannot use the emails that you capture.

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) world is littered with cases involving freight forwarders, brokers and agents in the shipping and express delivery arena. Both the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have aggressively pursued third party business relationships where bribery and corruption have been found. This is particularly true where companies are required to deliver goods into a foreign country through the assistance of a freight forwarder or express delivery service. There are several major risk points. These include: Location, location, location; Customs and other governmental agencies; Aviation and postal regulators; Business promotion expenditures for governmental officials; Agents and sub-agents; and Government accounts are a major part of express shipper customers so must analyze this as well. How can a company respond to protect itself or at least reduce its potential FCPA risk with regarding to a logistics company, freight forwarder or express delivery company? Obviously having a thorough risk assessment program and due diligence program are critical. After determining risk, move to perform due diligence based upon this risk. However, there are some general questions that you should ask, both internally and to your prospective vendor. Relationship. What is your relationship with the third party? Is it purely arms-length? Is it sales agent making a solicitation? Is it a consortium, which may be a lower risk? Is it partnership of JV, if so what is your control? Is it subcontractor or supplier? All of these have different risk levels. Business Formation. What is the character of the third party? Is it a US based company, is it subject to a robust national compliance law? Is it private/public? Who else do they represent? Length of time in business? Who are the principals and are they governmental officials? Compensation. How do you compensate the third party? Is it bonus-based paid at the conclusion of a transaction? Will the representative have an expense account? If so how is it given to them, for instance will you pay on a lump sum v. verified expenditures? How will they be paid, local currency into a bank account, cash or check? What is the level of compensation? Are you over-compensating based upon the market; you are taking a chance that the third party could share it with others. Location. What is the geographic location and is it one of the usual suspects on the Transparency International Corruptions Perceptions Index (TI-CPI)? Industry. What is the industry or sector that you are engaged? This can be significant because certain industries/sectors such as infrastructure, medical industry, defense contractors are facing increased DOJ/SEC scrutiny. Process. What is the process by which the business opportunity arose? What is the bidding process? Who invited you? Is it an open bid? Did you respond to an RFP? Did you compromise you own standards to bid? Is there a mandated partner assigned by the foreign government? After you ask some of these questions, investigate your risks and evaluate them; you should incorporate these findings into a contract with appropriate FPCA compliance terms and conditions. This contract should announce to your to third party freight forwarder/express supplier of your expectations regarding their compliance program. Your contract should also allow for management of the compliance relationship. Your contract should require training and certification by verified provider or by your company. Your company’s Relationship Manager should ensure the third party’s compliance with your company’s anti-bribery compliance program. James Min, Vice President, Int'l Trade Law & Global Head of Trade Law Practice Group at DP-DHL Legal Department, developed a risk matrix for the freight forwarders/express delivery industry. In this Min analyzes risks by multiplying factors noted herein and thus scoring. This model shows that location should not be the sole criteria for risk. The factors in the Min Model are the performance of your company’s customers clearance brokers and how far that performance varies from the norm your company normally receives. In the below chart, +1.00 equals average clearance time. >1.0 equals faster than average and The Min Model Country TI CPI Customs Clearance Performance Variance from Average Performance Risk Score Risk Rank A 55 .93 1.21 61.9 1 B 20 .76 0.89 13.5 3 C 54 .29 1.00 15.6 2 D 88 .12 0.7. 7.39 4   The key in this approach is how often the Customs Broker/Express Delivery Service varies above the average for customs clearance times. If the percentage of customs clearance performance is so great that your vendors variance is above 100% most of the time, this could be a Red Flag that bribery or corruption is involved. This should lead to further investigation, due diligence, or asking of questions of your vendor. Almost every business transaction engaged in by a freight forwarder, express delivery service or customs broker, outside the US involves a foreign governmental official. Every time your company sends raw materials into, or brings them out of, a country there is an interaction with a foreign governmental official in the form of a Customs Official. Every customs transaction involves a payment to a foreign government and every transaction involves some form of a foreign governmental regulatory process. While the individual payment per transaction can be small, the amount of total transactions can be quite high, if a large volume of goods are being imported into a foreign country. Conversely interacting with international tax authorities can present problems similar to those with customs officials, but the stakes can often be much higher since tax transactions may be less in frequency but higher in financial risk. These types of risks include the valuation of raw materials for VAT purposes before such materials are incorporated into a final product, or the lack of segregation between goods to be sold on the foreign country’s domestic market as opposed to those which may be shipped through a free trade zone for sale outside that country’s domestic market. If you utilize the services of a third party for any of the transactions listed above, that company’s actions will go a long way in determining your company’s FCPA liability. You must have a thoughtful process and document that process. Three Key Takeaways Express delivery services and freight forwarders present unique compliance risks.
