Starting a Small Business is Easier than you think!

The bare basics of opening a business are quite simple:

1. File a Fictitious Name statement in your local county
2. Obtain a business license in your city
3. Obtain a free business tax id number
4. Open a business checking account at your local bank
5. Create a business plan and develop financials

Follow these steps exactly…you need a fictitious name before you can obtain a business license and a business tax id number (EIN). You will need a business license and an EIN before you can open a business checking account at your local bank.
