Sub-Contractor Agreement?

DJ TJ said:

So the advice that I and Cap gave to not subcontract but instead have the "other dj" invoice you for services rendered, along with a proper tax i.d and the appropriate sales taxes added on to the invoice if applicable, is not a legal issue to be debated at all, it's just smart business......even though Rocky would like to make it an issue because that means he could then once again take the opportunity to try and make all of us on this here board (according to him anyway) appear "amateurish", but as per usual, "he just doesn't pass muster"! I think he's damn lucky that he is even welcomed back on this board considering his past disdain for all of us, but since that's an admin decision, I will digress...

Capo also and first advised,

that legal advice needs to be reviewed by a competent lawyer (emphasis on competent.) before implementation.

FYI, I do not have disdain for all of any group.

P.S. FYI, everything you offered, in your rants, was digressive and furthermore, Kay Em Eh!

This has been fun, watching a big argument that I was not in the middle of it.

Steve, in regards to sub-contracting, don't over-think it. Unless this is going to be a new business model, I wouldn't spend a lot of time in trying to come up with some iron-clad contract. Talk to your candidates and make your selection on who you feel will represent you best then, have them sign a basic agreement that puts them on the hook. Make sure they cannot further sub-contract the gig, should they pick up something else and make it crystal clear to them that they'd better show up. To me, sub-contracting has let me take on more work than I could get by myself. I was able to keep taking bigger jobs and to farm out the lesser gigs. These days, after my price increase, it's not much of an issue but when I was over-run, it was important. Good luck with your decision.
