Don't make a mountain out of a mole hill.


1. Think of a name for the business


2. Get a State,or County, City Business License. Beginning date 4/1/2009.


3. Type of Business is ';proprietor';(Self Employed)


4. Get a bookkeeper, you don't need a CPA


They could also set you up with all the


licensing requirements, Limited cost to you.


5. Doesn't sound like you will need employees so you don't have to register with the IRS.


6. You will be on a ';cash basis';, Cash in Cash out, the difference is profit. That's what you pay income taxes on. Your bookkeeper can explain that for you since you may have to send in quarterly payments to IRS depending on your tax status.
