Year help: Im thinking of setting up in business as a dominatrix but im not sure about what insurance etc i need. - Help.com



This post left anonymously

Im thinking of setting up in business as a dominatrix but im not sure about what insurance etc i need.

i know this is not an everyday business venture but it is one that i am serious about. I have a few years experience of domination through previous partners and feel that i could be successful in this industry.

Can anyone tell me what sort of things I will need to consider before starting this business. I will have some help with the financial side, like paying tax etc as my mother is an accountant. What I need to know is: will I need insurance for myself or my clients, do I need a licence of any kind, can I work from hotels and my own home etc? And anything else that it is important to consider.

Please dont bother with smutty or unhelpful comments. I want to also make it clear that I will in no way be partaking in prostitution.

Thanks

know i wont be offering an escort service of any kind. yeah perhaps home isnt a good place, so i was thinking to hold sessions at various hotels etc. the sessions will be one to two hours long so i dont think i will disturb the hotel too much.

what is a business licence? how would i look in to that?

Im sure there has got to be internet forums for people who do this thing professionally. that might be a good place to ask these questions.

Try collarme.com which is an online community for people involved with BDSM. You should find plenty of information there and a lot of people to connect with. Set yourself up a profile and get chatting. You will find me on there as LeatherBrit. I am British but living in the USA now.
