The Small Business Guidance feature in the Business & Personal tier provides access to practical business reference material covering key topics for small business owners. The content is published by Nolo Press, a trusted provider of plain-language legal and business guides.
This guidance helps you better understand day-to-day business topics like forming a business, setting up contracts, managing taxes, handling employee-related issues, and more. It's not legal advice, but it can help you make more informed decisions and identify when you may need to consult a professional.
The content is organized into categories such as:
-
Start & run a small business (e.g., licenses, leases, home-based business)
-
Employer’s legal handbook (e.g., hiring, wages, employee benefits)
-
Tax savvy for small business (e.g., deductions, recordkeeping)
-
Get more (additional Nolo resources)
Each category contains articles and subtopics you can browse within Quicken.
