I am not an Apple guy at all and have very little interest in their products.

Shawn thats a good Question I hired a few People an some are new an Young an they don't have references an they never asked for it but i won't let that stop me i let them Prove it to me an i take before and after Pics an when they are done i give them a reference an school them as its good to have since there are bad apples out there that spoils it for most off them.Just My 2 Cents :)Elia

We've had money sit in an escrow account for months and it went nowhere when the buyer decided to back out on us.It's unfortunate that, like many things in life, the few bad apples ruin it for the rest of us.

Can you get large magnets for the side of your car that reads "We buy/sell houses" or something even more creative?

Called a "chart of accounts" Under Apple LLC you have your account codes, assets, liabilities and capital, payroll, drawing, etc. those codes might be from 100 through 600, then you have Orange Tree LLC, same thing, but their codes begin at 601 and go to 1100, Fuzzy Bush LLC goes from 1101 to 1600, etc. 

. :)As always, make sure the work is getting done before you pay them (there are bad apples everywhere, but for the most part my experiences have been positive). 

I think since I don't mix apples and oranges, so to speak, what I do with the money will be an easy determination on how/where to deduct and what amounts.

DocuSign is like Apple products. 

There are some good wholesalers, but they tend to be the one good apple in a batch of bad.  

I would argue that responses from option #1 vs. option #2 are potentially like apples & oranges & therefore not equivalent in quality.
