Mix-up on the accountant attending our upcoming tax workshop
In today’s newsletter, we mistakenly announced Jon Youshaei as an accountant attending our upcoming workshop.
Jon’s firm Created Books is a valued partner and helps creators with bookkeeping and taxes, but Jon is not an accountant and won’t be at the event. We apologize for any confusion!
Kevin O’Connell is a CPA with his form C3FO and will be at the workshop.

Are There Disadvantages of S Corps for Creators?
Designating yourself as an S corps can save you thousands of dollars in taxes—but there are a few tradeoffs to be aware of:
- An S corp typically costs more money to set up compared to a regular LLC
- You’ll have to fill out a good amount of paperwork to designate your S corp
- Since you’ll be receiving a salary, you have to set up and run payroll (or have a professional service manage payroll for you)
- S corps require you to file a separate business tax return (Form 1120-S)
Overall, the tax savings from electing S corp status outweigh the extra paperwork, especially if you work with a tax professional who can take some of that paperwork off your plate.
