You can organize your business as a sole proprietorship, a partnership, a Limited Liability Company or a corporation.  Your lawyer and your accountant can tell you the advantages and disadvantages of each structure.  Corporations and LLC’s must register with the Secretary of State, Division of Corporations at P.O. Box 11350 (Room 109 Edgar Brown Building), Columbia, SC  29211 or (803) 734-2158.  You may want to use the SC Business One Stop web site (www.scbos.com).
