Oilfield related businesses developing around San Angelo
|
As you would expect we are seeing more and more people interested in opening an oilfield service related business, due to the activity in the Wolfcamp and now Cline Shale plays. Partly due to the knowledge we learned from our SBDC colleagues working with clients in the Eagle Ford Shale area southeast of here, we have successfully helped a number secure financing and get started. Please see us if you are interested in starting an oilfield related service business or you are an existing business servicing the oilfield and need assistance. As always our advising services are free and confidential.
Sincerely,
ASU-SBDC Director

Have you ever taken a cake or some homemade bread to a party or friend and have them brag on it and proclaim that you should open your own bakery? Maybe the first time, you were flattered and quickly dismissed the suggestion. But the compliments kept coming as did the suggestions to start your own business and now you have given some serious thought.

After setting up your company either as a sole proprietor, partnership, LLC, etc., you will need to visit the State Comptroller's Office to find out about your sales tax responsibility..
