Start Up Businesses

You need three things to create a successful startup: to start with good people, to make or provide something that potential customers actually need or want, and to spend as little money as reasonably possible to do this. Most startups that fail do it because they fail at one of these. A startup that does all three will probably succeed.

While we cannot provide you with the magic idea or business for success, we can help you get started successfully as it relates to forming the right business structure, choosing the right accounting information system and helping you with your taxes and financial reporting.

Business Structures – Corporations, Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies

Each type has unique advantages and disadvantages. It is easy to get confused, or worse, choose the “wrong” type or not file the appropriate forms and elections timely that can cost you time and money.
