What does it mean to be a Sole Proprietor?

Starting and operating a business as a private individual has its benefits and drawbacks. While providing a simple and straight-forward business structure, which does not require any complicated registrations or administration, operating as a Sole Proprietor also exposes the business owner to personal liabilities for the operations of the business. It will also limit future growth and development of the business in many ways.
