is better to create a DBA via a LLC or indivdual?
It depends on your business needs. Here are some points to consider:
- LLC: Offers liability protection, separating personal assets from business debts.
- Individual: Easier and cheaper to set up, but no liability protection.
What type of business are you planning to start?
its a marketing brand
For a marketing brand, creating a DBA (Doing Business As) under an LLC might be more beneficial due to liability protection and potential tax advantages. However, if you are just starting and prefer a simpler setup, starting as an individual could be a good option.
Is there any specific reason you're leaning towards one option over the other?
what about privacy reasons
For privacy reasons, forming an LLC offers better protection as it separates personal information from business dealings. Using an LLC for your DBA can help keep your personal information private, whereas an individual DBA might expose more personal details. Do you have any other specific concerns regarding privacy?
