FAQ

Starting something: we pressure-test your idea and pricing and you leave with a one-page launch roadmap. Already running a business: a Business Boost Call is a free call to go over your website, Google listing, and where your week goes. Either way it is a free 30-minute Google Meet, with no obligation.

No. If you already sent the free idea check or the free AI plan, those answers will be there to read before we talk.

That is exactly what the Local Business Launch Audit is for. You do not need a perfect business plan to start. We help Sacramento and NorCal founders refine the idea, name, and next step before any filing or website work.

It is a free 30-minute Google Meet. We look at your offer and business name, pressure-test the idea and pricing live, and recommend Official Launch ($499) or Digital Storefront ($1,999). You leave with a custom one-page launch roadmap. There is no obligation to buy.

While you can legally start as a sole proprietor, a California LLC separates your personal assets from your business liabilities. If your business faces a dispute, an LLC helps protect your personal bank accounts and property. Beyond legal protection, having "LLC" attached to your name instantly signals to local clients that you are a legitimate, professional business.

Yes. California law requires an annual $800 minimum Franchise Tax for all LLCs, due by the 15th day of the 4th month after you file. It's the most common trap for new founders. We make sure you know exactly when this is coming so you aren't blindsided by penalties.

By the time an online filing factory upcharges you for an EIN, an Operating Agreement, and standard processing, you are often paying $350 to $500 anyway—and dealing with a faceless corporation. For $499, we handle your full California legal foundation, cover the $70 state fee out of our own pocket, and give you direct access to a local operations expert who ensures it is done right.

If you start with Official Launch at $499 and later move to Digital Storefront ($1,999), the $499 is credited toward that package so you are not paying twice for the LLC filing work.

After the Local Business Launch Audit and intake, we submit state paperwork promptly (California processing times vary). While the state processes the LLC, Digital Storefront clients can have the site and local listings moving in parallel. Timeline is typically weeks, not a same-day guarantee.

Very little—that is exactly why we exist. Aside from the initial 30-minute Local Business Launch Audit and our brief Execution Kickoff to gather your details, we handle the heavy lifting in the background. You don't need to sacrifice your weekends reading California tax code or fighting with website builders.

We hate hidden fees as much as you do. Our package prices are one-time payments to us. For the Digital Storefront, you will be responsible for standard third-party costs (like buying your domain name and paying for basic website hosting, which typically runs $20-$30/month). We do not mark these up, and we do not trap you in expensive monthly maintenance contracts.

Digital Storefront is built as a lead-gen site, not a brochure: fast load, clear offer, calendar and lead capture, plus Google Business Profile setup so local Sac / NorCal searchers can find you. Results still depend on your offer and follow-up.

You have 100% control. We build our Digital Storefronts on user-friendly platforms and hand over full admin rights the day we launch. We will ensure you know how it works so you can easily update your services, change your pricing, or add photos yourself without paying an agency hourly fees.

Yes. You fill out the form, and we email a short look at what to fix first. Your free report includes next steps, and we can help you put them in place. No call is required, and there is no obligation to buy anything.

That is who this is for. The form asks how comfortable you are, and the plan matches that. Your free report includes next steps, and we can help you put them in place.

Usually not. Most businesses need a few fixes first. A rebuild is worth a quote when the fixes would cost more than starting fresh.

Yes. The free website check and the free AI plan use what you submit and what the public can already see. We do not ask for passwords. The Privacy Policy describes how those answers are stored and emailed.
