It’s been nearly two years since Wayfair v. South Dakota, a landmark case that completely changed the rules of sales tax for online companies. The decision has created a major administrative challenge within the promotional products industry. Companies potentially have to know the sales tax laws of every state, file sales tax forms for every state and be registered to do business in every state. Bradley Scott, whose wife is the president of their family-owned wholesale jewelry company Halstead Beads in Prescott, AZ, will be speaking at a Congressional hearing regarding the Wayfair case on March 3. In this podcast, Scott explains the issues his company has faced by collecting online sales tax, his recommendations to the government on fixing the process and how other business owners can get involved.
