In this episode of Startup Daddy, I talk about the differences between business entities.  I explain Sole Proprietorships, Partnerships, Limited Liability Companies (LLC), and Corporations, and why it is so important to protect yourself.

In the Time Saver Quick Tip, I recommend a virtual phone system to give you a professional image without the cost of additional phone lines or expensive PBX systems.

My Recommendation for a Virtual Fax Line and or Voicemail Number

The Startup Daddy Community gets a 30 DAY FREE TRIAL, by following the link above. If you want a dedicated fax line, and/or all you need is voicemail, this is the way to go.  You get your faxes in your email inbox as a PDF, and if you opt for the PRO Service option, you get voicemail as well, with the ability to record a personalized message.  If the system hears a fax tone, it just accepts the fax.  If it is a caller, they hear your message and you get the voicemail in your email inbox, in the form of a WAV file that you can listen to on any computer or smartphone.
