Best Answer

The main advantages of setting up as a sole trader are:

  • Total control of the business by the owner.
  • Cheap and easy to start up - few forms to fill in and to start trading the sole trader does not need to employ any specialist services, other than setting up a bank account and informing the tax offices.
  • Keep all the profit - as the owner, all the profit belongs to the sole trader.
  • Business affairs are private - competitors cannot see what you are earning, so will know less about how the business works and how it succeeds.
