Which plan fits
It depends on who owns the locations.
The deciding question is how many tax entities the locations belong to. One entity with several locations is one business. Several entities are several businesses, kept together in one portfolio.
One tax entity
Pro or Pro Plus
Every location reports under one corporation or one LLC.
Example
Bluebonnet Retail LLC owns stores in Round Rock, Plano and El Paso. One entity, three locations: Pro. A fourth to sixth store: Pro Plus.
Pro up to 3 locations · Pro Plus up to 6
A mix of tax entities
Agency
Locations sit under different owners on paper.
Example
- Location A · sole proprietorship
- Locations B and C · one S corporation
- Location D · an LLC
Three entities, so each is its own business in one Agency portfolio.
Each entity keeps its own filings and record

Operator questions
Pro Plus or Agency?
Count the tax entities, not the locations. When every location reports under one corporation or LLC, Pro covers up to 3 locations and Pro Plus up to 6. When the locations belong to different entities, such as a sole proprietorship, an S corporation and an LLC, Agency keeps each entity as its own business in one portfolio.
What about locations outside the 12 metros?
Federal and state duties apply everywhere in Texas. Local permits for other cities can be added as custom items, and they get the same reminders and records.
Does it work for franchise owners?
Yes. Each unit is a location with its own local rules, and the brand’s own requirements can be added as custom items.
Can I just ask?
Yes. Ask Teddy knows every location’s record and is included on every plan. “Which stores have something due this week?” Ask out loud or type, in English or Spanish, and Teddy answers in the same language.
