Starting your own business.

A List Apart, Issue No. 152, has an article explaining business entity options. If you're thinking about starting your own business, this is a good read. My advice, get a good accountant - they'll make your life much easier. Raible Designs started as an LLC in 1999 and became an S Corporation last year. It was easy to be an LLC without anyone's help; I paid my own taxes, did my own state registration, and handled my own finances. But when I upgraded to an S Corp., my accountant made my life much easier by doing my payroll, quarterly taxes, unemployment insurance, etc. I definitely recommend starting your own business if you can - just remember the most important things are 1) to get customers and 2) keep them happy.

Hey Matt - how did you switch from an llc to an scorp? I am going to talk to our lawyers - but I wanted to be well informed. I know you can elect to be scorp status or you can disolve the llc and create an scorp. Which path did you follow?

It's been awhile - but I believe I did the first option. Although my LLC is not around anymore, so it could've been #2 as well.
