Smart Start LLC helps you start and launch your business the right way.
We handle your LLC filing with the State of Wisconsin, EIN registration, legal formation documents, logo design, business cards, and—depending on the package—your Google Business Profile, website, and ad setup. You focus on your idea; we handle the paperwork and setup.

Processing times can vary, but typically it takes around 1-3 business days once everything is submitted to the state.
We work as quickly as possible on our end to file your documents and keep you updated on the status.

You can use your home address in most cases when forming an LLC in Wisconsin.
If you prefer to keep your home address private, we can talk through other options.

Yes.
EIN registration with the IRS is included in every package so your business can open a bank account, hire employees in the future, and file taxes correctly.

Yes.
As part of your package, we help you open your business account directly. I work at Fox Communities Credit Union, and I personally open business accounts for clients.

I’ll walk you through:

• Which documents you need
   
• How to set up the account under your LLC
   
• How to separate personal and business funds the right way
   

You’re not just getting advice — you’re getting hands-on help from someone who opens business accounts every day.

Yes, you can.
You can operate multiple brands or projects under one LLC using DBAs (Doing Business As). We can explain how that works and whether it’s a good idea for your situation.

We provide educational guidance, help you understand your options, and connect you with the right professionals if needed.
However, we are not a law firm or CPA, so we don’t give official legal or tax advice.

No problem.
We can still help with:

• Logo & branding
   
• Business cards
   
• Google Business Profile
   
• Website setup
   
• Facebook page & ads (Premium level)
   

You can mention this on the site as “Branding & Online Presence Only” services.

Typically, payment is made upfront before we begin filing and designing.
You can choose your package, send your information, and once payment is confirmed, we start the process and keep you updated.

Once state filing and services begin, most fees are non-refundable, especially state fees.
If something is our mistake, we’ll always do our best to fix it.
