A sole proprietorship is a type of business owned and operated by a single individual. It’s the simplest form of business structure, where the owner is personally responsible for all aspects of the business, including its profits, losses, and debts. Sole proprietorships are easy to set up and offer full control to the owner, but they also come with unlimited personal liability, meaning the owner’s personal assets are at risk if the business faces financial troubles.
