    Many online business owners have found themselves in the uncomfortable position of realizing they may have been treating and paying team members as independent contractors all along, when they should have been employees.

    Even more business (especially rapidly growing businesses like yours) are faced with the conscious decision to decide which classification will be best for your business model.

    Here’s the good news and the bad news about hiring contractors or employees:

    The good news is that you get to decide what role people play in your business, so you can likely make some small changes to ensure you are in compliance.
