i have experience with this, gotta say: choosing between sole prop and llc depends on a few factors. gather the data first, don't decide emotionally.

another perspective: maybe the real issue with choosing between sole prop and llc is something else entirely. think about it...

but what's the real risk? will the business close if this choice is wrong? i'm saying be very careful.

bro let's be real, most business owners make the wrong choice in these situations. be careful hasty decisions often end in regret.

note: I wrote this based on my own experience, it might not apply to everyone.
This approach has a cost, which isn't discussed. A two-week notebook guides you more than a six-month forecast.
Most time waste accumulates in tasks waiting for approval. This is my opinion, I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.

I disagree with you on this point. Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.

Let me summarize what's been said so far. Calculate how many months you can survive without revenue, then halve that number.
A small market isn't bad; working cheaply in a small market is. Good luck with that.

Let me share my experience. Processes without records never improve, because you don't know what to fix.

There is something to watch out for. Taking notes for two weeks yields better results than a six-month estimate.
If you get three different answers on a topic, the question was asked wrong. Hope this helps.
I feel the same way. When making decisions, write down the worst-case scenario too, not just the best.

There's also a measurement aspect to this. Start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.
Hope this helps.
