Why is your business structure important?
Not all business are created equal. In fact, each structure has definite advantages and disadvantages. Some questions to ask yourself right off the bat are:
How liquid do I want or need ownership of my business to be?
How important is protecting myself from personal liability?
Which structure will give me the best tax treatment?
Which is the best structure for attracting and retaining employees?
