Thanks LUCKIEST,
These are some of the things I completed today:
1. I obtained an, Assumed Name Certificate, being that the business name is different than my name
2. Opened a checking account in the new business name.
3. Made an appointment with a local, Small Busines Development Center office (SBDC)
4. I then called a bunch of Insurance companies, and finally got one who understood what I needed, and they told me that "I may not need Insurance" for the type of service that I provide. And I have heard this from the owner of a Catering company, and other Insurance companies, but one potential client asked if I had Insurance, which started me on my journey.
5. Read up on SCORE, and have the information for the local office, and plan on making an appointment tomorrow morning.
Sorry to repest but: I advertise the services, ex; Waiters and Bartenders for private events, Then I contact the Waiters and Bartenders that I know, to see if they can work the event.
I recieve a small fee for providing the staff. I am a middle man. I really do not know the official title for what I do, Independent Booker, Staffer, etc.
None of the staff are full or part time employees, they are just freelance Cater Waiters.
And I am doing this on my own.
So... do I need Insurance? Do I need to become an LLC, or Sole Proprietor? do I need anything? I am totally lost.
Any Help would be appreciated.
Thanks Again
