Hey everyone!

So I already have a QB account for my Etsy store. I’ll be switching over to full time as a tattoo artist in January and I’m trying to get all the financials figured out before then. A couple questions:

I’m assuming I’ll need to make a separate QB account for the tattoo business instead of lumping it in with the Etsy one, is this the best way to go about this? Especially since my current QB is actually linked to Etsy, I don’t want to mess up anything on that end.

If I do end up making another QB for tattooing, how will that affect end of year taxes? I understand quarterly will be separate, will I also need to file end of year separate or is there a way to file them together?

Any help is appreciated! I’m planning on using Square for tattoo transactions, especially because it links to QB.
