In today’s episode of Influencer Confidential, we did things a little differently.
I invited my CPA, Laura Grajales, to join me for a live Q&A all about Influencer Taxes, where Creators from our Inner Circle community were able to ask their real questions in real time.
This episode was all about breaking down the things Creators are most confused (and stressed) about when it comes to money and taxes, in a way that actually makes sense.
We covered topics like how much Creators should be setting aside for taxes, paying quarterly estimates, understanding tax brackets, and when it makes sense to form an LLC or S-Corp.
Laura also cleared up common misconceptions around brand trips, gifted collaborations, reimbursements, and what actually counts as taxable income.
If you’re a Creator who wants to feel more confident managing your money and running this like a real business, without fear or overwhelm, this episode is a must-listen.
