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 legal notices and legal 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.

Protect your assets

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.
