Sole Proprietorship
A sole proprietorship is a business owned by one individual and conducted under a company name. This is often called a "fictitious" name. There is no entity of any kind associated with a sole proprietorship since it is simply an individual owning 100% of a business. Please note that laws relating to sole proprietorships vary from state to state in the US.
