How do I set up an LLC and get financing when starting a service business?

LLC is fairly easy to do yourself. Every state is different, but most have an online form that takes about 20 minutes to fill out. If you can't figure out the answer, AI can be helpful for giving a play by play on the form. It usually costs no more than $200. I've had LLCs in 3 States and have helped clients in a few as well, and the most I've paid is $200.

Financing...if you are looking to offer financing for clients, Square has a Pay Later option for clients. There are several out there and once you pick a credit card processor they often give you options that they work directly.

Hope this helps!
