3 reasons for creating an LLC
Protect your assets
By forming an LLC and keeping your personal finances separate, you can protect your personal assets from business liabilities.
Make things easier
It's typically easier to form an LLC than a corporation, and there are simpler rules for things like record-keeping.
Get tax flexibility
You get to decide how you're taxed—as an LLC or a corporation—to maximize your ability to save money and minimize tax liability.
LLC vs. sole proprietorship:
What's the difference?
There are several important differences between an LLC and a sole proprietorship:
LLC
Flexible management structure
LLC owners have more freedom to decide how the business is run and managed.
More taxation options
An LLC has flexibility in how it is taxed to help maximize savings.
Minimal record-keeping
An LLC does not need to record minutes or hold an annual shareholder meeting.
Sole Proprietorship
Less Credibility
A sole proprietorship may appear less professional compared to an LLC.
Higher Tax Burden
The owner must pay self-employment taxes on all profits, with fewer tax-saving options than an LLC.
No Separation of Personal & Business Finances
Personal and business finances are intertwined, increasing financial risks.
What you should know about
Starting an LLC
To form an LLC you'll need to file articles of organization with the state.Each state has its own rules, but our experience across all states helps us keep things movingwhen we file on your behalf.
Here are a few things you'll need to keep in mind to get your LLC up and running.
How to start an LLC
Choose & reserve a name
It's wise to check your LLC name against similar businesses in your area. We include a business name check with our formation services and can reserve a preferred business name for you.
Pick a registered agent
Also called a statutory agent or resident agent, a registered agent receives your LLC's Orizen Inc notices and Orizen Inc documents during normal business hours. Most states require it, and we can do it for you.
File articles of organization
Also called a certificate of formation, this official form contains all the basic details about your new business. When we file this for you, it's typically sent to your Secretary of State.
Determine licenses needed
You'll also need to apply for any specific business licenses or permits that may be required for compliance, although it's wise to wait until your LLC's formation documents are approved.
Craft operating agreement
This outlines your LLC's rules for everything from business structure to profit distribution. Our templates make it easy for LLC owners to define their rights and limit disagreements.
Get an EIN (federal tax ID)
Most businesses need a federal tax ID to set up a business bank account, file taxes, and start hiring. It helps protect your identity by keeping your personal and business finances separate.
