Hi, you seem to know your stuff.
By way of clarification, most of the millions of small businesses have a 'registered office' like Hop-on, where official docs are sent, usually their accountant or attorney and the actual business is run out a car, home office or dining room table. Does that make such businesses ineligible to be licensed in CA?
Relevance is that the background of Hop-on's Twitter pics appears to be residential rather than corporate in appearance
