It’s easier to do things the right way by starting a business from the beginning. Then you can use lots of helpful tools, and if you’re just starting out, you can pay for it with money from your part-time job. This keeps everything separate, so your taxes don’t get mixed up. Having a business also makes you look more professional and can open many opportunities.
I do Amazon merch, which works great, plus I’m an Amazon affiliate. My books are also published by a company that works with Amazon books. It’s definitely something to think about if you want to start on Amazon without spending money. If you have a nice voice, you might get offers to do ads for Audible audiobook narrators too.
It’s usually smarter to open a business account first, especially if you’re hoping to grow your business one day. Having a business account can make you look more official and might help with things like saving money on taxes. Also, if you ever want to build a brand or maybe sell your business later, it can make stuff a lot simpler. But if you’re just trying things out for now, using your own name is totally okay too.
I’m thinking of starting college in about a year, so this year I want to learn how business works and try to earn some extra cash with a few small jobs. I might not have as much free time once school starts, so do you think it’s better to set up a business account now or just stick with a personal one for now?
