    Hi Ginny, I have a couple of questions. I totaled up my sales and since I didn’t sell any property (it was all just doing service based sales), the state said I wouldn’t likely have to pay unless I bought things that would be considered a use tax. I was told to email the state, but the last time I did, they didn’t reply. However, based on this tutorial, it seems straightforward. Would I add my services in the Other nontaxable section? Also, my business is registered in one city, but I do pop up events throughout the Southern California area. Would I still be subject to district and local taxes even if I am likely exempt from charging sales tax? Thank you.

    Street vending requires other permits depending on each city/county's rules since you are operating in the public on the street and not in your own location. Contact the cities directly.

    Hi is the same process starting a lemonade stand ? I know children don’t need a lic? Also if I have a Ein for a business but I want to just add lemonade signage to my business do I do a DBA? Example sugar rim bar, but want sugar rim lemonade Thanks in advance

  • @ginnysilver

    Food and beverage not made in a commercial kitchen or restaurant will require a cottage food license in addition to a business license, DBA, seller's permit. You would register a separate DBA for operating a different business name under your main business, yes.

    If you have two different DBA's registered to the same original business then you likely would need one cottage food license for that original business, and then register a separate DBA to that main business. Contact the department issuing the license to be sure. Look up the contact info on CalGold.ca.gov

    Because your city and the state operate differently, you can register an LLC first to ensure that your LLC name is granted and then register for your business license and other requirements with your city after as the next step.

    Because a minor can not sign binding business contracts, it is generally not a good idea to start a sole prop for a minor. The Sole prop would be your parents and you would be an employee or independent contractor of your parents business, obligated to all required employee/labor laws. LLC with the parent as the organizer is generally how this would be done instead.

    I hope you'll see this question, Ginny. I have been absorbing your content and learning so much to help me organize my business. This one area has been difficult for me to find answers for: If I have registered my business with a DBA/sole proprietor and I set up a virtual mailing address, will ALL my mail (business and personal) now be forwarded to the virtual mailing address, including amazon packages etc.? Does going through the notary process and transferring my mail mean there is no longer a separation between personal and business mail since I'm a sole proprietor? This is my only reservation about setting up a virtual mailing address. I would like a way to keep a separation between my business and personal mail.

  • @ginnysilver
    @ginnysilverАй бұрын

    Mail is sent where you specify. Your Amazon orders and other online purchases ask for you to input your shipping address in the account. The only reason personal mail wouldn't be sent where you specified with that merchant would be if you filed a change of address/mail forwarding service with USPS.
