If you run a public relations or advertisement business anywhere in Bayelsa State — a PR and communications consultancy, an advertising and branding agency, an outdoor advertising and billboard business, a digital marketing and promotions business, or a signage and print advertising business — registering it with CAC is one of the easiest things you’ll do all year. We at Onelove Business Ventures are an accredited agent, and we handle the entire process for you — search, filing, certificate — from wherever you are. You don’t need to visit an office, stand in a queue, or step away from your business. All it takes is a short WhatsApp message with your preferred business name, and we take it from there.
Whether your business is in Yenagoa, Ogbia, Nembe, Brass, Sagbama, Ekeremor, Southern Ijaw, or Kolokuma/Opokuma Local Government Area, the process and pricing are exactly the same. Bayelsa’s growing business and political landscape keeps demand steady for PR and advertising services across all eight LGAs. A CAC certificate simply puts your existing business on paper, the way it should be. We handle the full registration for public relations and advertisement businesses in Bayelsa State for ₦35,500 all-inclusive, covering the government filing fee and our service fee together (a Limited Liability Company registration is ₦65,500 all-inclusive). The whole process runs online, and most clients have their certificate in about a week — with almost nothing required of you beyond that first message.
It really is this simple: send us your business name on WhatsApp, and we’ll handle everything else.

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company Cost
| Business Name | Limited Liability Company | |
|---|---|---|
| All-inclusive cost | ₦35,500 | ₦65,500 |
| Personal liability protection | No | Yes |
| Documents received | Certificate + Status Report | Certificate + Status Report + Memart + TIN |
| Best for | Independent PR consultants, small ad agencies, and solo digital marketers | Larger advertising agencies, PR firms, or businesses seeking contracts or investment |
Most independent PR consultants, small ad agencies, and solo digital marketers just starting out find the Business Name option is more than enough to get properly registered without any extra complexity. Businesses planning to run large advertising campaigns, manage corporate or political clients, or bring in investors often prefer the Limited Liability Company route for the added protection and structure.
A Good PR and Advertising Business Deserves a Registered Name Behind It
You already know your work — the messaging, the campaigns, the client relationships, the day-to-day running of the business. That’s the hard part, and you’ve handled it well. Making it official with CAC is the easy part, and it’s the kind of small, sensible step that experienced PR and advertising professionals take in their stride — not because they’re worried about losing out, but because it’s simply the right box to tick once a business is real. It gives you something to point to when a client, a brand, or a regulator asks, “are you registered?” — and lets you answer with a quiet yes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CAC business name registration cost for a public relations or advertisement business in Bayelsa? ₦35,500 all-inclusive for a Business Name, ₦65,500 for a Limited Liability Company — the same national pricing whether your business is in Yenagoa, Ogbia, Nembe, Brass, Sagbama, Ekeremor, Southern Ijaw, or Kolokuma/Opokuma.
Can I register a digital marketing business specifically? Yes — you’ll simply state your specific line of business, such as digital marketing and promotions services, and it will be reflected on your certificate and CAC’s public register.
Do I need ARCON registration in addition to CAC registration? Not for CAC registration itself — that just establishes your legal business name.

What if my proposed business name isn’t available? No trouble at all — just send a backup name and we’ll check it right away. Having two or three ready in advance keeps things moving smoothly.

We’re a CAC-accredited agent, and we take care of your entire registration from name search through certificate delivery, so all you do is send a message and wait for good news.
