Registered Agent: A state-required person or entity designated to receive official legal documents (like lawsuits or state notices) on behalf of your business.
Employer Identification Number (EIN): This is your business's "Social Security Number," assigned by the IRS. It's required to open a business bank account, hire employees, and file taxes.
Articles of Organization: The official legal document filed with the state to create your Limited Liability Company (LLC). It outlines the basic details of your business.
S-Corp Election (Form 2553): An S-Corporation is a tax status, not a business entity. You first form an LLC or C-Corp, then file this IRS form to be taxed as an S-Corp, which can potentially save you money on self-employment taxes.
Annual Report: A mandatory yearly filing required by most states to keep your business information current. Failing to file it can result in penalties or dissolution of your company.
Pass-through Taxation: The business's profits and losses are not taxed at the company level. Instead, they "pass through" directly to the owners' personal tax returns, avoiding double taxation.
Double Taxation: A C-Corporation's profits are taxed once at the corporate level, and then again when distributed to shareholders as dividends. S-Corps and LLCs avoid this.
Liability Protection: This separates your personal assets (home, car, bank accounts) from your business debts and lawsuits. If your business is sued, your personal assets are protected.

Why Formalize Your Business?
Going from a "side hustle" to an official business (like an LLC) is the most important step for protecting yourself and building a real, scalable company.
Personal Liability Protection
This is the big one. An LLC creates a "corporate veil" that separates your personal assets (home, car, savings) from your business debts and lawsuits. If your business is sued, you are protected.
Build Legitimacy & Trust
Customers, partners, and investors take "My Business, LLC" more seriously than a sole proprietor. It shows you are committed and professional, and it's required to open a business bank account.
Tax Flexibility & Savings
An LLC can choose how it's taxed. By electing to be taxed as an S-Corp, you can potentially save thousands in self-employment taxes every year. This is a massive advantage over being a sole proprietor.

Have questions? We have answers. Here are the most common things entrepreneurs ask.
Great question! An LLC is a business *structure* that gives you liability protection. An S-Corp is a *tax election* that tells the IRS how you want your business to be taxed. You can have an LLC that is taxed as an S-Corp to potentially save money on self-employment taxes once your business is profitable.
Yes, every LLC or Corporation is required by law to have a Registered Agent in the state of formation. This agent must have a physical address (not a P.O. Box) and be available during business hours to receive legal documents. Our service handles this for you so you don't have to use your home address.
An EIN (Employer Identification Number) is a 9-digit number from the IRS that acts as your business's tax ID. You will need it to open a business bank account, hire employees, and file your business taxes. Our Pro and Premium packages include filing this for you.
This depends on two factors: our processing time and the state's filing time. We offer expedited processing (as fast as 1 business day) with our Pro and Premium plans. State filing times can vary from 1-2 days to several weeks, depending on the state's backlog. We always get your documents to the state as fast as possible.
