Do you serve Royse City businesses?
Yes. We're headquartered in Caddo Mills, just minutes from Royse City. We serve entrepreneurs throughout Rockwall County and Hunt County. In-person and virtual meetings available.
Should I form an LLC or elect S-Corp status?
An LLC is a business structure—it's how you form your company with the state. S-Corp is a tax election you make with the IRS. They're not mutually exclusive. Most small businesses start as an LLC, then elect S-Corp status once profit exceeds $60-80K to save on self-employment taxes.
