Secretary Husted announced the roll out of two major initiatives -- the 21 percent cut in new business filing fees took effect last Thursday and a partnership with Google was established to help new businesses get off the ground and achieve success in Ohio.

This cost reduction, made possible by Secretary Husted's good fiscal stewardship, establishes Ohio as the least costly state in the region to start and maintain a business.

Thanks to Secretary Husted’s efforts to modernize the office’s structure, 100 percent of Ohio-based businesses can now be started online, among many other services, through the Ohio Business Central feature on the Secretary of State’s website. As a result, the state’s response time on business applications has been reduced from four days or more to fewer than 24 hours in most cases.
