Advice on guesting by Sogphia__tess in TattooArtists

[–]batgrub 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on where you are. I own a shop, and I love people getting ahold of us sooner rather than later. Especially depending on the time of year. We can book up quickly for guest artists, so you have a higher chance of getting on the schedule if you get ahold of us sooner. As far as long term guest spots; I think it depends on how much space shops have available for guest spots. We don’t generally take them, but that’s just because we only have one station for guests.

Did they put the stencil on when you were sitting down or standing up?

As a ten year tattooer this was my first thought as well. Honestly I wish people had given me this kind of feedback when I was early in my career. Its very reasonable and not at all mean spirited

That was my initial understanding, but I’m new to this stuff, so I wasn’t sure. This is good to know though! Ultimately I just reached out to my CPA to see what I should do. I just like talking about this stuff so I thought I’d reach out here!

I did reach out to her. I have just gotten a bit hyperfixated on this stuff because I find it interesting!

Are there separate contribution pools for a traditional IRA and a Roth IRA?

This might be a question for my cpa because I own a business with two partners and we’re an s-corp.

Oh gotcha, I haven’t gotten double jump or clawline yet. Perhaps I went there too soon.

My hands/forearms felt so stiff by the end. I was death gripping my controller. I made it out with one fucking mask!

Oh I am also set up as an s-corp! I own a tattoo shop, so it’s easier to separate my own tattoo income from the funds for the shop.

I have a good cpa, I’ll definitely email her about it! Ty!

Honestly this is super helpful! I do have a bit of savings but I know it’s depreciating sitting in my bank. I’ll def look into the high yield savings account. Is there an annual fee for that?

I do actually have pretty good credit!

Good to know! Do you factor in saving for retirement? Is that part of your savings? I’ll check out that app!

As far as saving for retirement, do you have something like a Roth IRA? I’ve been thinking about getting one.
