I registered my LLC as ‘Global Edge Solutions LLC,’ but I want to market under the name ‘Global Edge Consulting.’ Is that possible with a DBA?

### Can I Market Under a Different Name Using a DBA?
Yes, you can market your LLC under the name **‘Global Edge Consulting’** by filing for a **DBA (Doing Business As)**. A DBA allows you to operate and brand your business under a different trade name without having to change your LLC\’s legal name, which remains **‘Global Edge Solutions LLC.’**
### Why Use a DBA?
1. **Brand Flexibility**: A DBA enables you to create a trade name that better aligns with your business services or target audience, such as ‘Global Edge Consulting’ for a consulting-focused market.
2. **Cost-Effective**: Filing for a DBA is simpler and more affordable than legally changing your LLC name or creating a new LLC.
3. **Legal Compliance**: A DBA ensures your trade name is legally recognized, helping you comply with state regulations.
### How to File for a DBA:
1. **Check Name Availability**: Ensure that the name ‘Global Edge Consulting’ is not already in use or trademarked in your state.
2. **File a DBA Application**: Submit the required forms to your state or county, along with the filing fee.
3. **Publish the DBA (if required)**: Some states require you to publish a notice of your new trade name in a local newspaper.
