Business License Requirements

Business license research feeling like a puzzle these days?
⠀
A crucial part of business compliance (meaning the stuff that’s mandatory no matter what type of biz you are) is ensuring that you’ve filed for the appropriate business license(s).
⠀
I’m not talking about your professional license (i.e., a licensed therapist, licensed esthetician, etc.) ⠀
⠀
I’m talking BIZ-ness license. And guess what - even if you work from home...your city may still require you to apply for one!
⠀
In addition to whatever professional license you may need, a business license is typically required for you LEGALLY do business in your city/county/state.⠀
⠀
Depending on the type of business you are running, you may need no additional licenses, or you may need more than a handful!
⠀
And the thing is - if you don’t apply for the right license(s), you can get hit with a penalty. ⠀
⠀
What?! Yes. A penalty. ⠀
⠀
This also applies to pop-up market vendors. Even if you’re selling products or services for just a couple hours in a different city, you still need to make sure that you’re in compliance with *that* city’s licensing requirements. ⠀
⠀
Sometimes the organizers of these events will provide you with the licensing and permit information you will need that day. Others won’t. ⠀
⠀
Don’t leave your legal compliance in the hands of others! Make sure you’ve taken the proper steps to protect yourself & your business. ⠀
