What’s the difference between an employee and an independent contractor?


You might think you know the answer, but the line between the two can get a little blurry, especially in the wedding industry.


On this podcast, I help you create your wedding industry business plan, and in this episode, we’re tackling employees vs. independent contractors. We’re talking about how to know which you should hire, what you need to know about both, and how each can benefit your business. There’s a simple question you can ask yourself to determine which type of hire you need to make, and I’m sharing it in this episode. 


Topics covered in this episode include:

  • How to know if someone is an employee or an independent contractor
  • Regulations you need to know if you’re hiring an employee
  • How to avoid legal trouble if you’re working with an independent contractor
  • Things that wedding professionals need to look out for when hiring

If you’ve been asking yourself whether you need to bring on an employee or an independent contractor, this episode has the answers for you. Start listening now!
