I wouldn't want to find a customer without a liability veil in place. At least in my state, an LLC is maybe $150 to set up and $70 every ten years. The paperwork is really 1 notarized form plus your bylaws (templates are available) and a report every 10 years. That's a small price for liability protection. If you make it generic enough, you can reuse it for future business ideas too.


I wouldn't want to find a customer

An LLC won’t protect you when you work with customers you can’t trust.

An LLC won’t make finding good customers any easier either.

And it won’t save you any legal fees if you get sued or make collecting what you are due when someone doesn’t pay any more likely.

But sure an LLC is easier than finding customers and then you can set up bank accounts and design a website and avoid the hard problem with those too.
