the best so far in 2024. i have sat here for 6hrs watching video after video and no one does it better.

…you’re videos are banging. The amount of editing and graphics is staggering

[lwisniewski]

The only thing I didn't take away with was, if the state I live in is different than the state I earn my money in, which state do I register my LLC? Thank you VERY much for this video, I love that you break it down for us.

[CyberRican]

Definitely earned a sub from me for being so transparent with your content and affiliate links

[kurossilver]

Actually the best helpful video that I came across for opening the llc. I thought I got all the information from the web, but this video and especially the checklist has proved me wrong and how much I was missing out. Thankyou sir, keep it up

[rubenrios]

One of the more thorough videos I've watched, thank you

"I appreciate your help. I don't have much knowledge about LLCs. My daughter is planning to get an LLC for her barber business, and I am thinking of starting an Etsy shop to sell handmade items, t-shirts, mugs, tumblers, etc. Your advice has given me some idea of what to consider while making a decision."

Thank you so much for this video! It was so helpful, and you explained things very well. I'm more of a reading & visual learner so including the visuals with text was perfect! I got my free LLC Checklist as well, so thank you for that too! Greatly appreciated 💕.

Hey Buddy,
Thanks. Very good video, one of the best I found in this llc area.
question: Is is good checklist for non USA residents too? Can you share more details about it?

[ChicagoViews]

Biz Buddy this was a very beautiful video thank you so very much😊

[rockosmith]

Any refurls for trademarking logos etc

[LatashaWaller]

Thank you for all of the videos. Do you think I should start the LLC before I take the training to generate money for my CPR instructing business?

[troytinsley]

Great information you've provided. I have your Notion doc, but after I think I've installed it, I can't locate it within Notion.

[cooperwillliamsrealtor]

I love the way you present with you on one side screen on the right what program do you use

[lifeofyanique]

Thank you for this video, would I need an operating agreement if I’m a single member LLC ?
Can I add it later? If yes how late can I add this after creating the LLC …
I will be creating an LLC for Real Estate investing (buying Land & Tax Deed)

[troytinsley]

I wouldl think it's better to set up the EIN after my LLC is established. That way, I'll have the correct name of my business being "name of my business" LLC.

[terrihildebrand]

How could I get printable copies of the checklists you are showing. They are a great outline.

[susanaavilatejada]

Hello, I am going to open a single-member LLC in SC. Where should I register the operating contract? At what point in the LLC opening? Should it be accompanied by any other documents? I appreciate your help in advance.

[BriannaIsaac]

I did my LLC through Bizee do I still need to do the articles?

[obinna_okechukwu]

Great video! About using online application services, can a non US citizen use Bizee to create an LLC
