Hello, so I am ready to start my social media marketing agency,

I just have one important question before I start taking clients, and it has to do with taxes.

I will be operating as a sole proprietorship, working as a self-employed individual. This will only be for the first few year or so as I scale my agency.

My one big question is, how do I go about taxes in this case?
I just want to make sure I know everything I should know so I don't make this kind of mistake.
I know I must sign up as a sole proprietor, how exactly do I go about doing that?
Anything else I may be missing that I should know would be helpful


**(It is important to note for tax purposes I am from the United States)**
Any advice is much appreciated! Thanks
