It can all be done under the same roof, but if you're going to receive payments in two different company names you'll have to register them as two different DBAs (doing business as). If the "bread and butter" business is just a trademark business, then you don't need a second dba, but you will have the odd difficulty when people pay you in your trademark; best to register two dbas even if it is just one business.
