Incorporating Yourself or Your Small Business

The benefits of incorporating far outweigh the benefits of not. But this is a personal decision. By incorporating you protect your personal assets. Our best suggestion is to search online. Either go to your State’s Secretary of State (SOS) website where you will find all the information and help you need to set up your corporation and chose the type of entity (Limited Liabilty Corporation, S Corporation, Partnership, Sole Proprietor...) You will need to select a unique name for your business, set up Articles of Organization and Apply for a Federal Tax ID (EIN) number.

Or check out the numerous legal services online that will set up your business entity for you. In the long run, the money you invest in incorporating will be well used.
