Q: What licenses and permits might I need to start a consulting business?
A: Good to meet you, let us walk through what your consulting business may need, piece by piece, so nothing surprises you on opening day.
1. Business license: A business license for a consulting business MAY ask for a plain description of the advice you sell, whether clients visit you, and whether you work from home or rented space. 2. Home occupation permit: A home occupation permit for a consultant MAY limit client visits, deliveries and signage, and usually asks for a signed statement that your spare room stays a quiet workspace. 3. Professional liability coverage: A certificate showing errors and omissions coverage may be requested because advice, unlike a sandwich, can be blamed for years. 4. Written client agreement: A sample engagement letter describing scope and deliverables may be asked for with some applications. 5. Company papers: Depending on how you want to own and name the business, an LLC, a DBA or a tax ID number may come next; we prepare those too.
