Our step-by-step program to teach you legal basics en route to forming your Sole Prop, LLC, or S Corp.

Good news bestie. You too can feel comfortable using legal jargon in everyday life, and it won’t even take a law degree from Harvard.

Because, while Elle Woods may be able to show you something fun, like how to get an 83% rate of return on a dinner reservation with a bend and snap, we can show you something even funner, like how to get a 100% rate of approval on an LLC or S Corp application without having to interact with legal assholes with names like Warner Huntington III.

Raise a finger if you’ve been told something like…

  • “you don’t need an LLC until you make $x.” (that’s probably wrong).

  • “you should form an S Corp as soon as you start your business.” (no. wrong answer)

  • “Just go to your state website and form the business. It’s easy.” (ehh maybe, but folks commonly miss a step)

  • Use Legal Zoom. It’s great. (maybe. But we think it’s better that you actually check all the boxes yourself and avoid some of the pitfalls we’ve seen from others)

The misinformation is all over the place. But forming your sole prop, LLC, or S Corp isn’t all that hard. You just need to know the steps.

And contrary to popular opinion, we think filing your own business structure is the easiest way to go. Here’s why.

If you hire us to do it, we need to send you a long onboarding form to collect your address, social security number, and more. Then, we file the LLC, but it’s under our login info, so it’s difficult for you to access. Same with your business license, seller’s permit, and more.

Instead, we walk you through the steps one-by-one so that you can be the keeper of the keys to your business castle.

Sole Prop, LLC, S Corp? WTF are they even?

The Default Entities

Collectively, we call these things “business entities.” They’re different ways you can structure your business. Technically speaking, a sole proprietorship is the absence of a business entity. If my nieces and nephews decide to go start a lemonade stand one day, and don’t file any legal paperwork, they’d default to a sole proprietorship [if it was just one of them] or a general partnership [if they were all in cahoots].

The Formal Entities

When you take the leap from a default entity to a form entity, like an LLC or corporation, it’s kind of like the process of mitosis where one cell can split into two. You legally separate yourself from your business. Think of yourself as a tiny little cell and your business as another. You can control it, but you’re separate.

Everything you own personally shares your cell, like your prized collections, and retirement savings, home, car, and all that. Everything your business owns lives in its cell. Now imagine the worst case scenario happens, a yucky lawsuit. It quite forcefully attacks and destroys your business cell. Poof. It’s gone. You’re sad over in your cell of course, but you and all your belongs are still safe and sound over there.

That’s the power of an LLC.

What’s an S Corp Really

An S Corp is not actually a business entity. Huh? Yeah. It’s just a tax status. You must first have a formal business entity, an LLC or a corporation. Then, you can mail a magic letter to the IRS that says “Hey girl, ya’ll wrote some pretty cool tax benefits in subchapter S of the U.S. Tax Code. I’m gonna take advantage of those.”

And then you have an S Corp.

The main benefit is that you save self-employment tax on some of your business income. Sometimes this can mean $5,000 or more in tax savings. For more on the specifics, check out the blogs and podcasts.
