Re: starting a record label
I assume you want to start a record company. The company itself can be any form, for instance, a corporation or an llc. Once you file either corporation or llc paperwork, then you'd do a fictitious business name, depending on what name you would want to "do business as"(dba) that is different from the llc or corporation's name. But you would file your corporate or llc paperwork with the state first. If you need any help with this, give a call at 323.371.6006
