Hi Chris, congratulations on PHIT Programs by Chris! People crave someone in their corner who helps them get unstuck, and a good coach earns devoted clients who refer friends. Here is what we will cover: how to structure PHIT Programs by Chris, the tax IDs it needs, and the licenses that let you open in Conyers, then a quick recap.
Coaching in Georgia doesn't need a professional license as long as you stay clear of diagnosing, prescribing diets for medical conditions, or calling it therapy. The journals change the tax picture: physical goods shipped to Georgia buyers call for a Georgia sales and use tax number. Working from home in Conyers usually needs a home occupation permit, and since you meet clients in person, ask whether visits to the house are allowed. A clear disclaimer on your site helps keep the health coaching side tidy.
By the numbers: Banks, insurers, and tax forms will ask for your industry code. For a life coaching practice it is NAICS 812990 (All Other Personal Services). That makes 5 items on your list.
Tip: Carry professional liability coverage, which is affordable for coaches and calms nervous clients.
To recap: PHIT Programs by Chris in Conyers, GA needs an LLC, a DBA, an EIN, a sales tax permit for product sales, and a business license. With the paperwork done, the fun part begins: serving your first customers.

Hi Francesca, Francesca Life Coach sounds like a promising venture. People crave someone in their corner who helps them get unstuck, and a good coach earns devoted clients who refer friends. Here is what we will cover: how to structure Francesca Life Coach, the tax IDs it needs, and the licenses that let you open in Geneva, then a quick recap.
In New York, a sole proprietorship doesn't need any registration if you work under your full legal name. Operating as Francesca Life Coach is a different name, so you'll file an assumed name certificate before using it on a website or bank account. Life coaching isn't a licensed profession in New York, but avoid words like therapy or counseling, which are licensed titles. A client agreement explaining that coaching isn't mental health treatment protects you, and Geneva may want a home occupation sign-off.
By the numbers: Banks, insurers, and tax forms will ask for your industry code. For a life coaching practice it is NAICS 812990 (All Other Personal Services). With 1 employee planned, you are already creating jobs in Geneva. That makes 6 items on your list.
To recap: Francesca Life Coach in Geneva, NY needs an LLC, a DBA, an EIN, a sales tax permit for product sales, a state employer ID, and a business license. Check them off one by one and you will open with confidence.
