Are you thinking of starting a small business? If so, have you considered what form of company will best serve your needs? That’s the subject of the January meeting of the Neon Guild, an association of technology professionals in the Charlottesville/Albemarle area. Each month the group gathers to meet and greet, and hear a speaker talk about some issue related to technology.
This month, the topic is My Company 101, a primer by attorney Dan Smith on the many different types of business arrangements possible for small business owners. This talk does not consist of legal advice, and if you have legal questions, consult an attorney. But, this hour-long talk should give anyone a good overview on the differences between sole proprietership, limited liability companies and corporations.
If you found this program useful, please send it on to as many of your friends and colleagues as possible. CPN is also looking for other programs and speeches to cover. Please contact us at info@cvillepodcast.com.

Thanks for the Information as I was unable to make the meeting and this provided a good overview.
Best,

Thanks for the correction – it should now be fixed.
Thanks for recording the event. I was there, but it’s still useful to have the audio. Dan covered a lot of territory.
take care,

This was great to be able to listen to (and look up the websites you referred to) at the same time. I was just getting ready to call a tax accountant and/or tax attorney and this saved on a lot of my initial questions. I’m a sole proprietor.
Thank you!
Thanks for leaving a note, Catherine. This podcast is two years old, and is still posted. I’m glad you found it useful! One of the ideas behind the Charlottesville Podcasting Network is to record these events and leave them up as a community resource. I’m glad to see that it has worked out in this case.
