What a day. I've filed Articles of Incorporation, obtained an EIN and ordered a fancy corporate kit and seal. I tried opening a business banking account and was told I need a business license. A quick call to the local zoning board confirmed, I need a "Home Occupational License". But there is a catch, I was told I am not legally allowed to operate a business in my garage (which is where my desk sits). Now, since my business resides on a single laptop I'm curious what happens when I move from the designated office space (my couch), to say, the bedroom or even the back porch. It's amazing what rules and laws are in place that people don't even know about. So much for my dreams of being the next Apple, or Walmart. |
