Publisher's summary

LLCs explained in depth in an easy-to-understand format, so you can get started on your business today!

Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) have increased in popularity over the last few decades. Entrepreneurs across the world learn about the numerous liability and tax advantages of LLCs, and are quick to start the paperwork to form their own entity and get their business off the ground.

LLCs are a relatively new type of business structure - dating back to only 40 years ago in Wyoming. Since then, states have adopted and dealt with LLCs as they see fit. Our goal in this audiobook is to provide the broad strokes of the LLC that are true in every state, while also bringing to your attention and directing you to the proper resources for the state-by-state differences.

While LLCs are often cited for their numerous advantages and benefits for new business owners, there are potential disadvantages depending on your specific situation. Don't worry - all of this will be covered in the book as well.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Any additional comments?

This book makes learning to establish an LLC simple. I am starting a business as a sole proprietorship for the time being. But when the time comes that I generate enough business to warrant it, I will establish an LLC for legal reasons. This guide helped me understand the process, as well as the pros and cons involved. This book lays everything out for you and very simple to understand. I received the audio version, but it comes with an accompanying PDF to follow along with.

Excellent little book/audiobook especially if you’re researching LLCs and how to create them. Although, it left a lot of unanswered questions, it definitely packs a lot of useful information.

Tremendous value for your time and money

This is intro level of course, but for that, I'm well satisfied. A mix of simple examples with crucial terminology keeps it moving. This is effective to flag some of the prominent factors and complexities faced when deciding what organization to use, and it has some practical tips about getting further help. Plenty of short budget-priced introductory level audiobooks I buy here end up disappointing me, but not this one.

A Great Refresher Course in Business

"LLC QuickStart Guide" is a great audiobook for anyone interested in beginning a partner type business without having to form a partnership. The LLC (Limited Liability Company) is perhaps more appealing than forming a corporation as well. This book also explains LLPs and LLLPs.

Forming an LLC is likely more appealing for folks wanting to start a small business. It's less formal, less taxes but it is 'limited liability' therefore in some instances a corporation may be better depending on the type of business. In many instances beginning an LLC IS the best way to go.

That's where this audiobook is extremely helpful and useful. It explains how the LLC works as well as it's advantages and disadvantages. I found it to be a great refresher course also. This will get you started in the right direction.

Amy Barron Smolinski did an excellent job with this book. She's easy to understand and speaks at a good pace. Overall, I enjoyed listening.

Another winner from ClydeBank Business

Definitely another winner! This book makes LLC clear to the layman. It gives information on its history, advantages and disadvantages. You’ll learn how you can establish your own LLC and you’ll discover the criteria you’ll need for setting it up. You’ll also be able to differentiate between the various types of company setup procedures based on IRS standards.

This will be particularly useful for those who want to set up a small business. I’d say this was easy-to-listen narration and informative content, and as usual – short and spicy. Enough to for you to learn without getting bored or overwhelmed. Highly recommended.

*I received this audiobook free of charge in exchange for an honest review.*
