Friends don't let friends start a business without an operating agreement. ESPECIALLY if you're starting that LLC...with friends. First reason? We have 'em for free, even if you're not a client. www.northwestregisteredagent.com/legal-forms/...

If you start an LLC, you're required to have a Registered Agent. For a lot of folks who DIY their business, this line on the form is where they pause in confusion. We have a thread about why you need a Registered Agent bsky.app/profile/nort... But is Northwest right for your business?

On other platforms, someone could say something like "Your LLC is required to have a Registered Agent" and folks will just add the item to their checklist. But Bluesky is different, and we're a little different, too. So, let's ask the question... WHY do you need a Registered Agent?

Incredible the way art steps in where words can't. We have so many friends, coworkers, and neighbors who were affected by the wildfires in Spokane.

'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

If no one else tells you today, you don't need a weird AI tool to start or run a business. You just need your actual intelligence. Actual intelligence can be knowing the right person to ask when you inevitably have a question. Us, you can ask us. You don't have to be a client. ⬇

It's Election Day, and we're thinking about all of the other ways we vote in our day to day 🗳️ When we spend money on small businesses in our community, it's a vote to keep going. You ask almost any small business owner--when they get a sale, it's not just grocery money, it's encouragement ❤️

You know what? We have time today. Do y'all know how complicated getting a DBA in California is? Do you want to know? 🤓 Let's go ⬇️

This is true....but if you aren't going to have a physical space, there is a new set of problems to tackle. When you register your business, what address are you going to list? That's going on public record, so you might not want to list your home. A Registered Agent is a fix for a lot of folks ⬇️

This is a post for the pantsers. 👖 The folks who dive right into the work, no outline, and pull it off every single time. Who make the money work every month as a freelancer, so they can have what's most important to them: Independence. We see you. But can we be honest? ⬇️

Let's talk about collections. Whether you have baseball cards or artwork, stamps or trains, protecting your collection is a high priority. You've probably already found the perfect middle ground between preserving and displaying your collection because it's a major asset. But what about an LLC?

If you're expanding your LLC into new territories, you might wonder what documentation the state requires. Well, you've heard it from us before, but this depends on the state. Let's take a look at the example of a Wyoming LLC expanding to Florida ⬇️

Where’s the red flag guy? One of our Corporate Guides was dating a guy who ran his own business, but he didn’t have a separate business bank account, even though she told him repeatedly to get one. Needless to say, he’s history.

Finger down if you've thought about starting a business, you even have a solid idea--at least a better idea than your ex who said he was in the "ham game" because he sold rabid hamsters and called himself a CEO (Cricetus Executive Officer)--but you don't want to hire a lawyer...

Every state does things a little differently. When clients form in Washington state, for example, we file an initial report along with the formation itself. Long story short, every state has its weird and wacky stuff, but that's where we nerd out 🤓

When people think passive income, they often envision a business running quietly in the background, with very little maintenance. Depending on your skillset and resources, a business like this is possible, but we’d like to debunk an important myth ⬇️
