Your business structure can impact how you pay taxes, how you pay yourself, payroll requirements, liability protection, and potential tax savings.

As your business grows, the structure that worked in the beginning may no longer be the most tax efficient option.

Here are the common business structures:

- Sole Proprietorship: Simple setup with no legal separation between you and the business

- Partnership: Multiple owners sharing profits, responsibilities, and liabilities

- LLC: Liability protection with flexible tax options

- S Corporation: May help reduce self employment taxes

- C Corporation: Separate legal entity with more complex tax rules

Reviewing your entity structure regularly with your accountant or tax professional can help support better tax planning and long term business goals
