What is an LLC & How Does it Work?

A Limited Liability Company (LLC) is a business entity that protects your assets from business debts and lawsuits. It offers liability protection like a corporation while providing tax flexibility and fewer formalities.

An LLC operates as a separate legal structure, shielding owners from personal liability. It allows pass-through taxation, meaning profits and losses flow directly to the owner's tax returns. To form an LLC, you must file paperwork with the Secretary of State and comply with state regulations.

What Are the Benefits of LLCs?

Limited Liability Protection

Owners’ personal assets are protected from business debts and lawsuits, reducing financial risk.

Pass-Through Taxation

LLCs avoid double taxation by passing income directly to members, lowering the overall tax burden.

Legal Flexibility

LLCs can have one or multiple owners, making them adaptable for small businesses and startups.

Less Compliance Burden

Compared to corporations, LLCs have fewer paperwork and reporting requirements, making management easier.

What Can You Do with an LLC?

Starting an LLC is more than just paperwork; it’s the first step toward your financial independence & business growth.

E-Commerce Stores: Sell products on platforms like Amazon, Shopify, Walmart, or TikTok Shop.
Expand into New Markets: Operate across states or internationally with ease.
Run Multiple Ventures: Manage several businesses under one LLC or create subsidiaries.

How to Form an LLC

Starting an LLC isn’t as simple as it sounds; it involves complex paperwork, tax rules, and strict legal requirements. Instead of dealing with the confusion, let's work together for the legal start of your business!

Choose a Unique Name

Your LLC name must be state-compliant, unique, and legally available. We check availability and handle reservations to avoid delays.

Designate a Registered Agent

A Registered Agent is legally required to receive official documents. We provide a secure agent service, keeping your address private and compliant.

File Articles of Organization

Filing mistakes can delay your LLC approval. StarterX ensures your Articles of Organization are filed correctly and quickly with the state.

Create an Operating Agreement

Not always required, but highly recommended, this document protects your business, outlines ownership, and prevents internal disputes. We will draft it for you.

Obtain an EIN & Handle Taxes

An EIN (Tax ID) is needed for banking, taxes, and hiring employees. We secure yours and ensure compliance with state and federal tax rules.

File Your BOI Report

New federal rules require LLCs to disclose ownership details to FinCEN. We will take care of this for you, avoiding legal penalties.

LLCs vs. Corporations: Key Differences in Business Structures

There are several important differences between an LLC and a corporation.

LLC

LLC is a flexible business structure with pass-through taxation and limited liability protection.

Ownership Structure: LLCs are owned by members who can be individuals, partnerships, or other businesses. Ownership is flexible and can be distributed in any way the members agree upon.
Taxation: LLCs have pass-through taxation, meaning profits and losses go directly to members’ tax returns, avoiding double taxation. However, they can choose to be taxed as an S-Corp or C-Corp.
Management: LLCs offer flexible management; they can be member-managed (owners run the business) or manager-managed (owners appoint someone to manage it). No board of directors is required.
Legal Formalities: LLCs have fewer formalities, requiring minimal paperwork, no mandatory annual meetings, and simple compliance requirements. However, some states require an Operating Agreement.

CORPORATION

A formal business entity with shareholders, structured management, and potential double taxation.

Ownership Structure: Corporations are owned by shareholders who receive stock representing their ownership. Ownership is divided into shares, making it easier to transfer or sell ownership stakes.
Taxation: C-Corporations face double taxation (corporate income tax + shareholder dividends tax). S-Corporations allow pass-through taxation, avoiding corporate tax but have stricter ownership restrictions.
Management: Corporations require a board of directors to oversee major decisions and officers (CEO, CFO, etc.) to run daily operations. This structure is mandatory, even for small corporations.
Legal Formalities: Corporations must follow strict regulations, including holding annual meetings, maintaining corporate bylaws, issuing stock, keeping meeting minutes, and filing annual reports.
