From Side Hustle to LLC by Chanell Johnson
MOST NEW BUSINESS OWNERS SKIP THE SETUP

Most new business owners start earning self-employment income, they may or may not register a LLC online and grab an EIN, but most are just "winging-it". Six months later they're running everything through a personal bank account, mixing personal and business expenses, and paying for the business on personal credit cards.

That mess costs you four ways.

  • It costs you at tax time. Every dollar you can't prove is a business expense is a dollar you pay taxes on.
  • It costs you in liability. If you mix the money, a court can pierce your LLC protection and come after your personal assets.
  • It costs you in funding. Banks won't approve a business that has no separate financial identity.
  • It costs you in time. Cleaning up mixed finances later takes 10 times longer than setting it up right from the start.

The whole point of an LLC is to separate your business from you. Do it right from the start and you save yourself days of cleanup and thousands at tax time.

Hi, I'm Chanell.

I'm a tax strategist, board certified credit coach, financial educator, and realtor. I've spent the last 10 years helping people fix their finances and almost 20 years running my own businesses.

I've seen every mistake new owners make. I made some of them myself. This guide is the setup I wish someone had handed me on day one.

What's Inside

The 7-step setup that turns a side hustle into a real, fundable business.

Seven steps, in order, with the numbers and the moves to do each one right.

1
Register the right entity
Sole prop, single-member LLC, and the S-corp election, with when each one makes sense. The S-corp conversation usually starts around $40,000 to $60,000 in net income.
2
Get your EIN
The free 10-minute step most people overpay for, plus the one document you have to save.
3
Open a business bank account
The single most important separation step, and the two-account setup I recommend.
4
Get a business credit card in the business name
Build business credit and free up your personal credit at the same time.
5
Set up bookkeeping from day one
The 30-minute Friday habit that keeps your deductions defendable.
6
Establish your business credit profile
Your D-U-N-S number, vendor accounts, and the details lenders check before they fund you.
7
Operate like a real business
The records, filings, and tax habits that hold your protection together.
