Thank you so much for the excellent explanation of exactly what I was looking for. I recently formed an LLC and then four d/b/a’s under the LLC. since I was operating and branding specialty services. After viewing your video, I feel I did everything right. I appreciate your time making this presentation. Thank you!
I don’t know why I go anywhere but this channel when looking for information about these topics. I could have saved so much time by referring to my favorite RUclips Lawyer!😊
Super helpful, addressed every question I had. Def using a DBA instead of renaming my LLC. We simply expanded our product offerings and this seems much easier.
Hello, great video just like the other ones on your channel. HOWEVER, PLEASE NOTE: I have more than 30 years of Accounting experience. It is a good practice for ALL businesses, including sole proprietorships, to have their own bank accounts. If the business owner uses their personal bank account for business expenses, then they would need to go through all of the transactions every month to let their bookkeeper, accountant or tax preparer know which transactions are business vs. personal. That's called comingling funds, and that's definitely a NO-NO. Please talk to the team that does your monthly accounting.☺☺☺Other than that, great content. Thanks!
Aiden covers all that in her other videos. The personal never mingles. What she's discussing here is comingling of DBA accounting and bank accounts or not is your personal choice. Doesn't sound good to me, but she says it's all LLC business, so it's not legally required. Her content was 100% great since she never went where you thought you heard her go. Good news, right? Been following her for a long time and she never steers me wrong. Just adding a couple DBAs under my LLC today and had to check here, first!
Not going to lie, I was skeptical about watching this video through to the end, but I'm glad I did. This answered several questions that I just. Thanks!
Video starts at 00:43 Welcome back everyone! thank you for the support! don't forget: we don't need to ask anyone to be liked! it should happen naturally :) enjoy!
I really appreciate your concise breakdown of LLC's and DBA's - much appreciated! You've explained it so nicely and this is critical info for anyone starting their own business ventures.
Aiden, you really do an excellent job at unfolding the layers of setting up a business. I have listened to many other youtubers discuss this subject matter. But you are bar far the best I have heard. I really finally understand how and why I can or should use a dba......thank you so much.
Thank you for the information. We are branching out one of our services under a different name to cover more Google maps. You definitely cleared some things up and we will be filing a DBA for this. Thank you again.
I’m an online fitness coach moving from Louisiana to Texas. Have been going through so many videos trying to figure out the proper thing to do. Wanting to get into videos too in the new state.
So the LLC is the parent company and the dba is the offspring of the company and the parent is legally responsible for the offspring in the business? So since it is one entity are you only allowed a line of funds for the parent company or could you get a line of funds in the dba name
Great information as always! THANK YOU! When It comes to the Business Insurance do I need to have one Business policy for the LLC and a separate one for the DBA? Or, do I only need one policy that protects both? Thank you so much 🙏❤
If I register my additional DBA under my already established LLC, can I use the same bank account as my LLC and funnel all funds there to help make accounting easy?
I have same question, bank is telling me to open a different account as money is coming from different avenues of business, different naics code! Someone in similar situation?
@Omar following too! I heard that banks might freeze your account if funds coming from different types of business! And this is called comingling funds.
Very well explained.....If your legal business name is Tax services and you teach and tutor and sell tickets part time, can you frame it. ...Tax services. Dba teaching and tutoring or Tax Services dba teaching, dba tutoring, dba travel agent. Many thanks for your help!!
Great information - particularly that you can have multiple DBAs under one LLC of a different name. It would be nice to know if it is possible to sell off one of the DBAs as a business to another entity or should it become a separate LLC before that transfer -- what would be the benefit either way?
I have an LLC set up and have created a DBA for that LLC, does that mean I can do business under both names? For example my LLC is Urban Envey 365 LLC and my DBA is FitHealth Arena LLC, these names target different markets, so can I operate under both names targeting different markets?
Can you do a video on how to expand a llc into a small franchise? For example, I own a beauty salon and I have people who would like to open up separate salons but using the same name, logo , trademark etc.
Thank you so much for answering so many questions! When it comes to trademarks, would you need to trademark the actual LLC or can you trademark one of the DBA's?
Hi Aiden, my question is if an LLC is named 'Big Apple, LLC' and DBA as 'Fuji Apple', and 'Red Delicious'...can the client cut the check directly to DBA 'Red Delicious', or does the check have to be made to 'Big Apple, LLC'? Also, is there a need for three different business licenses because they all have brands and services, or can it just be one business license since both 'Fuji' and 'Red Delicious' are under 'Big Apple'. Thank you for clearing the confusion.
Great video thank you.The one thing you did not address in the video that I have a question about is whether people can write checks to a business DBA name. My business will start using a DBA soon but will my clients be able to write a check to the DBA name or is that not a thing
We own a carpet cleaning company and are expanding to restoration. So if my S-Corp LLC is Orlando carpet cleaning and I want to do a dba of Orlando carpet cleaning and restoration, what do I list under my contracts for clients? Can I use “Orlando carpet cleaning and restoration?” On the contracts I have clients sign? Which brings up the question - if my general liability insurance is for Orlando carpet cleaning, do I need them to change it to match the dba name, or can I have client contracts for the dba name and still be covered under my original Orlando carpet cleaning insured name? Thank you for your help!
Thank you for the information, I just registered today, do I have to wait till I receive the paperwork from the secretary of state before opening a bank account or getting my DUNS# Etc, thanks again
I am confused. WHen you're signing something as a DBA how willt hey know that it's an LLC? Is it up to them to look it up? If your marketing material doesn't list LLC, how will they know. Can a LLC just use the name of the business minus the LLC part? And if so, do they need to register that as a DBA. "Ex: Maple Lollipop LLC". Can they just sign as Maple Lollipop (dropping the LLC part without getting a DBA)
What about a DBA for an out-of-state LLC in lieu of foreign filing when trying to retain anonymity for real estate? For example, if "Mondo's Condo's LLC" of WY either wanted to acquire or rent property out-of-state using a DBA of "Robert Smith" and wanted to take title and/or receive all rent payments as "Robert Smith"? If renting/doing business, that requires registering in the state where that business transacts, yes (let's say MI)?...but would that DBA suffice? What is the best option for the owner of "Mondo's Condo's LLC" to remain anonymous in MI and be able to DBA "Robert Smith?"
Great video! Quick question... When tax season arrives, do you use the LLC EIN number and the LLC name on tax forms? Or the LLC EIN number and the DBA name on the tax forms?

I do my funding through the parent company, the established LLC, not the DBA name.
@@PerksofHeartShakes when youre asked if you have a DBA do you provide it? or just apply solely on your main LLC
Thank you for clarifying the use of a DBA
Great information as always! THANK YOU!

Thank you so much for answering so many questions! When it comes to trademarks, would you need to trademark the actual LLC or can you trademark one of the DBA's?
I'm not 100% sure but I would think whichever you want, it's probably more important for the actual LLC or whichever you use most.
I answered your question in my recent video! Check it out at ruclips.net/video/v3ddfbn5GRE/видео.html.
