I think you’re giving it way too much thought.
Start a sole proprietorship called BigFoot Mobile Umbrella Sales, start a small business account at your local bank. Buy a case of umbrellas at Sam’s Club for $10 a piece and keep them in your trunk (since you are a mobile business). Sell umbrellas for 3 months, doesn’t need to be cash, doesn’t need to be a certain amount just show sales into the aforementioned account. Take your class and apply for your now unrestricted CCW. Continue selling umbrellas here and there.
I wouldn’t have started the business except I needed a G&S.
Did you do something like this:

Do you have licenses, or have to worry about zoning?
Do you file Schedule C, with the feds?
Thank you.
