HI everyone.
Man I'm enjoying this list.  Although during the day I wish I was out =
tuning rather than e-mailing, but I'm promoting hard believe me.  With =
at least 8 other tuners in the South Bend area, its a challange. =20

I wanted to know what everyone's take is on the method of cracking the =
unisons, or shimming them as some call it.
Marshall
p.s. I think the method is great, no felts to mess with.

  Marshall,

  It does not have to be a business account. In fact, this is usually =
not desirable as banks tend to tack on all kinds of extra charges to =
business accounts. Just make sure all checks are made out to you =
personally and there will be no problem depositing them into a =
"personal" account. If the checks are made out to a business name, like =
Marshall's Piano Service, the bank can balk at depositing them into an =
account that does not have that as a DBA.=20

  =20

  But as far as the IRS is concerned the main thing is that it be a =
separate account, not that it be called business account, just that it =
be an account used exclusively for business.=20

  Hi everyone.

  I have a seperate account, but it's not a business account.  Would a =
DBA account work as I get busier?  Speaking of busy, any ideas on =
advertising?  I'm not in the financial place to advertise plus we have =
at least 8 tuners in South Bend that I've either met or heard of.  We =
may have more in South Bend  and the surounding area. =20

  I like the word mingling.  That's how I met my wife.  :)

    Let's not overlook having separate business checking and savings =

invoices for materials yet to arrive, that deposit can sit in the =
savings account and not get dissolved in the daily ebb&flow flow in the =
checking account.
