When starting a Sole Proprietorship as a Personal Trainer are you required to get a buinsess license? ADVERTISEMENT 402 viewsMarch 2, 2014 0 Tanya0 March 2, 2014 0 Comments What other legalities should be considered and what if I train clients outside the area that I have a business license in? 5 Answers ActiveVotedNewestOldest 0 Harris12 Posted 0 Comments I agree with the above.
