In this video, I am sharing four things to do/consider when transitioning to become a staff. Starting a nonprofit is hard enough to do, and you need the funding to pay yourself and staff to make sure the organization will be around for years to come.
    Watch the end of the video at 15:55 where I share a few ideas about revenue strategies to cover your salary/to pay yourself.

    This was great! Thank you! Question.. how much do you put to the side for reserves or savings? For each sale or donation.

    • @BossonaBudget
      @BossonaBudget  2 года назад +4

      It depends on the nonprofit. Some may set aside a set amount each mont, like 10%. It also depends on how much you’re trying to save and timing. It’s probably less labor intensive if you save a lump sum (percentage of total income in the month) than per donation. Also it gets tricky if certain donations are restricted so make sure it aligns with your accounting, if that makes sense.

    • @BossonaBudget
      @BossonaBudget  3 года назад +5

      HI! I don't know how I missed this comment :) The officers are the special roles like President, Treasurer, Secretary, etc. Everyone on the board is a director, but keep in mind that every state may have different terminology. They may be called a board of trustees, board members, etc.

    • @BossonaBudget
      @BossonaBudget  Год назад +2

      That’s a complicated question- but I will say….follow the right processes for hiring like you would any employee. When it comes to the chief executive officer, you also need to have a process for selecting and compensating that person.

  • @HealthandBeautyAP
    @HealthandBeautyAP Год назад +1

    I have wanted to start a non profit for years. I have 2 questions:
    1. Why do cpas and others told me that having a for profit business. (I currently have some for profit businesses, looks sketchy to the IRS if you then start a non profit organization? They worry about mis use of money between a for profit and non profit and said it may make me a target for audits. I can't find any information about this.
    2. I had a meeting with my new CPA for my business taxes. I asked him about starting a non profit. He told me that I will have a very hard time finding a CPA who will file a non profit and if I do find one they will charge me thousands even if it's a 0.00 tax return. This was discouraging.

    • @BossonaBudget
      @BossonaBudget  Год назад +1

      Hi, I’m not a CPA and without knowing the details it’s hard to respond but it sounds like they’re worried about conflict of interest. However, there are scenarios where you can involve your business with the nonprofit as long as your business isn’t benefiting from the relationship and your business isn’t the sole donor (if you’re a public charity). There are consultants who will charge less than a CPA and also if you’re knowledgeable enough you can do it yourself- but I would still have a professional review your application before you submit it.

  • @kayloveism
    @kayloveism Год назад +1

    Does the process also go for nonprofits that are just now being built? When I declare that im on the board will I have to either not be on the board of my own business to make money? I'm not sure how that works because from your example it seems as if you're talking about a non-profit that has already been in business for a while.

    • @BossonaBudget
      @BossonaBudget  Год назад +4

      I’m not sure exactly what you mean by the process but generally it’s the same. The difference with an established nonprofit is that you have the financial resources to pay someone in the Executive Director position. If you’re a startup Exec Director you’re more than likely a volunteer starting out, but that separation between staff and board can still be modeled even from the very beginning

      If you are the founder of a nonprofit and the LLC and you're using the nonprofit to pay yourself under the LLC that's a conflict and your board needs to handle that and you shouldn't be part of that decision. But this is general information -consult a lawyer for help with conflicts of interest

      One of the first steps is compiling a board, so you would need one before you proceed with paying yourself. Getting to that point to be paid takes time anyway.
