Does anyone here feel that graphic design is an SSTB?

I have a high earning graphic design Scorp that designs websites and other programs for clients.

Thanks

I've went through this multiple times. I always get caught up on the reputation or skill part. A graphic designer could fall into that category but the client I'm working with does not earn their income from:

Product or service endorsements
Using someone's name, image, likeness, voice, signature, trademark, or any other symbol associated with that person's identity
Personal appearances, whether at an event or on television, radio, or other mass-media

I guess this means their not an SSTB

Thanks!
