So, here are some tips to help you on your way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#1. Get the Set-up Right<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps the single most important aspect of your business is its structure, especially from a taxation perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">For bands, operating as a sole proprietorship is arguably the simplest and least expensive structure, particularly when it comes to up-front costs and the filing of legal documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Sole proprietorships feature a single, individual owner too, meaning that incorporation isn\u2019t required at any point. This individual is therefore afforded the power to make all business-related decisions, creating a single point of control that simplifies the process of band management considerably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#2. Insure Your Instruments and Core Property<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Like any business, every band has its valuable assets, with expensive instruments such as guitars and drum kits particularly important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Because of this, it\u2019s imperative that you take steps to ensure these assets, using specialist and bespoke coverage that provides a safeguard in the event of your instruments being damaged or stolen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, you can take out a generic business equipment policy to achieve this objective, but this may not always deliver the exact coverage that you need or provide genuine value for money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bass-guitar-insurance.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"387\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bass-guitar-insurance.jpg?resize=580%2C387&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-111975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bass-guitar-insurance.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bass-guitar-insurance.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bass-guitar-insurance.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">In this instance, you could <a href=\"https:\/\/www.larkmusic.com\/musical-instrument-insurance\/\">consider the benefits of musical instrument insurance<\/a>, while comparing the market to identify the best bespoke policies. Some organisations like the Musicians Union and ISM also include instrument cover as part of their membership, so you may want to consider this when starting out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>#3. Comply With Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) Rules<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">The concept of Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is tried and tested in the world of consumer electronics, while it also applies to musicians and their instruments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">PAT guidelines dictate that all electrical equipment should be thoroughly tested before they\u2019re used in public. In the case of electric guitars, amps and similar instruments, this means testing functionality and safety before they\u2019re used at gigs, ensuring the wellbeing of you, your band members and those who are in the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Often, the venue will request this before you complete a booking, so it\u2019s important to be proactive and organised testing when investing in any new or used equipment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Admin Behind Your Band \u2013 What do You Need to Know?
