If you hire a manager who is not you/not an owner, your LLC will be manager managed.
If you or you and your partner will be the members and there is no other manager at the company: You are both the manager and member; you should select member managed.

Benefit companies promote the triple bottom line – people, planet, and profit. In both Oregon and Maryland, LLCs are allowed to be benefit companies; in other states, only corporations qualify. There is an option to mark, at time of filing, that you wish to be a benefit company.

No, I don't want to become a Benefit Company
Maybe, I'd like to learn more, please send me more information
If so, will your LLC be the same name as your ABN? This would be cancelling the ABN and replacing it with the LLC at the same time.
*
You cannot have two business listings with the same name. An ABN would be cancelled and replaced with the LLC of the same name.
Not applicable - No ABNs here
Yes, the Assumed Business Name is the same name and please cancel it when completing the LLC filing
I do not have an existing Assumed Business Name *YET* but I want to set up a new one under this LLC
No, the Assumed Business Name is not the same - I want to move this ABN to be listed under my newly created LLC
No, the Assumed Business Name is not the same - I want to keep it separately registered (under my own personal name) -this is not part of this LLC legal project
Something else complicated - I have questions about this and want to discuss with attorney
