Whether you’re a solopreneur launching a new venture or managing a growing company, you’ll likely encounter various licenses throughout your business journey. These licenses can come from all levels of government — federal, state, and sometimes even your city or county.
They might be broad, such as a general business license, or highly specific to your industry, like a liquor license or a contractor’s license. Understanding which licenses apply to your business, how long a business license lasts, when to renew them, and how to manage the process is essential to operate efficiently.
When you’re responsible for your employees’ well-being in the form of their retirement plans and health benefits, that’s where ERISA comes in.
ERISA, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, is a piece of federal law with a broad reach. It sets minimum standards and safeguards designed to protect employees in the private sector participating in employer-sponsored retirement plans and benefit plans (like healthcare coverage).
If you’re a small business owner, HR professional, or startup founder, understanding ERISA law is essential to ensure you fulfill your duties while protecting the interests of your employees.
Maintaining a registered agent in every state where you’re registered with the Secretary of State is a key compliance requirement—and to avoid fines or other penalties against your business, each agent needs to be able to reliably receive and forward correspondence.
If one of your registered agents can’t perform these functions (or if your business needs change), your business can change registered agents by filing a statement with the relevant Secretary of State.
