      Chapter 1:  First Steps to Business Ownership

      Congratulations! You have made the right first step in owning your own business, researching your options. Many people start new businesses without adequately preparing themselves legally or financially for their new endeavor. They have a great idea, as I’m sure you do also, but they don’t know exactly what is involved in starting the business so they drown in the details.

      You won’t drown because this book will prepare you for most contingencies. We have carefully researched the laws and business publications to bring you the most effective practices and procedures for a business start-up. If you are ready now to tackle the hard stuff, here we go.

      Legal Matters

      Are you a Sole Proprietorship, a Partnership, a LLC, or a Corporation? Before you go any further in your business foundation, this basic question must be answered. There are legal and tax repercussions for all of the structures, so it is best to be informed at the beginning.

      A Sole Proprietorship is owned by only one person. This person is solely responsible for all the business matters, even though they may have trusted employees, including accountants or bookkeepers.

      Sole Proprietorships are the simplest form of entrepreneurship. You may already be one; if you are a writer or a freelance graphic designer, photographer, or an independent contractor that does temporary work, you are a sole proprietor.

      Your local laws have the specific requirements for a business license or permit, and you have to pay income taxes on your earnings, self-employment taxes, and all business debts. You must also file a DBA, Doing Business as, if you are operating under a name other than a part of your given name. For example, if you own John’s Photography you are not required to file a DBA, but if you are The Photography Shop you must file. The DBA will look like this: John Smith, Doing Business as The Photography Shop.

      The detriment to being a sole proprietor is that you are personally responsible for your business debts. This means if you owe
