Nope. You can be incorporated or not. Many businesses run as sole proprietors in the beginning. Incorporation looks different from state to state and sometimes city to city, so make sure to consult with a CPA, attorney or other professional to ensure you do this step properly.
With the support of the community partners, we have made this program free for 25 small business owners to participate.
Whether stuck or just getting started, our proven programs and tools help entrepreneurs find their next step.
