Legally you need to make people aware that you are an LLC, but do you place that in your logo or just append that to all of your legal naming items, Ie. TOS etc.

TOS etc. Mark Orien 11-11-2009, 06:31 PM I think putting it in your logo is entirely unnecessary. quantumphysics 11-11-2009, 08:35 PM To me it seems like most (sorta-established) companies just shove it somewhere unnoticeable at the bottom of their site, while "new" ones that just got their LLC like to flaunt it everywhere possible Atelra-Rob 11-12-2009, 02:17 AM You might also want to think about how you want to portray yourself because flaunting LLC will definitely wave small business flag which could be good or bad for you.

TOS etc. Mark You can do whatever you want. If you don't want to include the entity type at the end of your name you may need to file for a fictitious name in the area you conduct business in. http://www.business.gov/register/business-name/dba.html You might also want to think about how you want to portray yourself because flaunting LLC will definitely wave small business flag which could be good or bad for you. There are plenty of large companies which are structured as an LLC. Chrysler comes to mind right away, I know there are others... servercoreweb 11-13-2009, 02:32 PM We do not on our logo but on the bottom of the page. JamieJ 11-13-2009, 06:48 PM I haven't incorporated my hosting company yet but I have had a company before that I incorporated when I was a photographer. I never put the LLC on our logo. About the only places I placed the LLC was on checks and legal documents. e-Sensibility 11-13-2009, 06:51 PM I think putting it in your logo is entirely unnecessary. Agreed. As long as you have it in your legal documents, e.g. TOS, AUP, and Privacy Policy, I think you should be okay. dynamicnet 11-14-2009, 11:08 AM Greetings: In my opinion, you do include the legal business form (when an LCC or corporation) in your business name. Over time it helps solidify you as a business rather than a one person show, even if you are just one person. Thank you. Brightverse 11-16-2009, 08:32 AM I think as long as it's at the bottom like in the copyright or whatever you're fine. Taylor 11-16-2009, 10:10 AM I agree with Orien that there isn't any need within a logo/banners. It can be somewhere in your documents and site however |
