You’ll need to register your business and obtain necessary licenses. For designer contracts, include clauses clearly assigning copyright ownership to you for the designs created specifically for your store, along with a non-disclosure agreement and rights to use and modify the designs.

I want to send them a notice demanding a copy of the agreement and ensuring it’s invalid without the job offer.
