For this assignment I messaged my friend Patrick who owns a hedgeshop/ vape store in my hometown called Hideaway Novelties Smoke & Vape. I called him to ask him these questions. 1. The main operating activities is selling products. They sell vapes, tobacco products, tobacco pipes, and other random trinkets. They are open 6 days a week (closed on Sunday) and are open from 10am - 9pm Mon-Thurs and 10-10 Friday and Saturday. He chose to go with an LLC as his organization form. Operations of the business are fairly simple. He has one cashier at the store at all times and runs an online ecommerce store for additional revenue. He does marketing on facebook, but is limited on what he can post due to facebooks guidelines. 2. He chose this business because it is something he enjoys and also because he knew it would have good revenue. The store is on the side of the highway and is one of the only locations you can get a vape on a lot of communters way home. He decided to go with an LLC because of the legal protection you gain individually when creating an LLC, and to avoid personal bankruptcy if the business were to fail. 3. Operating an LLC has benefits because it has limited liability, but it has a downside because he does pay more in taxes than he would with a sole proprietorship. Reply Quote Email Author
