He hailed from Bergen and was an older brother of Andreas Paulson. The family had moved to Bergen from Jølster in 1860, as the father, politician Olav Paulssøn (1822–1896), was offered a job there.

He started an antiquarian bookshop in Bergen in 1884, and later expanded with a publishing house. The publishing house perished in the Bergen fire of 1916. Paulson also translated socialist literature, including Peter Kropotkin, Robert Blatchford and other Fabians. He was a member of Bergen city council, and had influence in the nationwide party around 1905–1906. He died in late 1926.
