How to legally
establish your home based business
By Laura Tiffany
Starting a new
homebased business can be the most exciting thing you'll ever do--deciding what
your product or service will be, choosing a creative name, networking to find
customers and suppliers, setting up your office. But there's a less thrilling
side to the start-up phase--the tedious paperwork you need to wade through to
make sure your new business is on the right side of Johnny Law.
To make this
process less painful for you, we've put together the following guide to help you
legally establish your homebased business. From the Ps and Qs all businesses
have to mind--like choosing a business structure and filing for your dba--to
situations that are unique to homebased business owners, such as zoning, it's
all here for you.
So sit down,
prepare to fill out a lot of forms, ready yourself for many decisions, and join
the legions of established business owners with your own newly legal homebased
business.
