How to Form An LLC in Five Simple Steps

By on March 22, 2005 in Ideas

Scott Allen of About.com put together a brief overview of the steps required to form an LLC. Though the actual process will vary slightly from state to state, the process is very straight forward:

  • Obtain a copy of your state’s LLC Articles of Organization form
  • Choose a name for your business that complies with your state’s rules
  • Fill out the LLC Articles of Organization form
  • Publish a notice in your local newspaper of your intention to form an LLC (if required)
  • Submit your Articles of Organization form to your Secretary of State along with the appropriate filing fee

That’s it — you’re done!

    I had an LLC formed recently by a company that I was truly impressed with Anderson Business Associates out of WA. They where pricey but provided outstanding guidance and support and where not trying to “sale” or pressure you into any decisions or choices. I highly recommend them. If you tell them you where referred by a past customer and give my name. They will give you a referrel discount. G’luck!
