I want to start an advertising company self funded. But the challenge is that my funds aren't that much, I called CAC today and asked them how much it was to get a business name and they replied "N10,700" then I asked for opening a limited liability company and they said N70,000.

So what I want to know is if I can just register the business name and begin working and then register the limited liability company later. The advert business idea isn't new though an amazing one, if I open one with just a business name is it adviceble? Can transact with other companies with just the name?
Please advise me.
I reside in Abuja. Thank you in advance.

Yes, u can start up your business with just a registered name. Then do the limited liabilty registration later as u expand (thats if u need to)

Hmmm... Do u mean without a physical building its possible?

Sure its possible, all u need is an address..
Its too bad dt CAC does nt verify addresses
