What is a Sole Proprietorship?

A sole proprietorship is a business with a single owner. It is the dream for many people. These businesses, which are not registered as an LLC (limited liability company), a partnership, or a corporation, have the benefit of flexibility. Sole proprietors can work as freelancers — independent contractors — or they can run physical, on-the-ground businesses. 

Often, home-based businesses are sole proprietorships. There are 23 million of these in operation today, vastly more than any other traditional forms. This sort of business carries dangers with it, and it's important to understand them so you can avoid pitfalls in bookkeeping, taxes, and other potential liabilities.

Key Takeaways

  • C Corps may be better for startups seeking investment due to ease of issuing stock and attracting VCs.
  • LLCs are easier to manage and more flexible in profit distribution and structure.
  • Tax implications vary: LLCs offer pass-through taxation, while C Corps may face double taxation but benefit from reinvestment strategies.
  • International business owners may prefer C Corps for credibility and ease of foreign ownership.

LLC Versus C Corp: What Is It?

An LLC is a business entity that is legally separate from its owners, who are known as "members." An LLC can have one member or many members.
