Top Reasons To Incorporate Your Business
Top Reasons To Incorporate Your BusinessBy Chris Einkauf

Why should you incorporate your business? Well, the answer to this is easy - it saves you hassle. It decreases the burden of some taxes, debts, expenses, and other down-the-road worries.

So, now you know (briefly) why to incorporate, but how exactly do you? Unfortunately, this answer is a bit more complicated. There are so many business formation types out there and even more registered agents out there that want your money. They all promise that they are "the one", that they are the best choice for you and your business. The problem is, only one of them really is. To find this one best match, you need to weigh all of your options.

Start by getting all the information about various agent packages and comparing them. In addition to this information self-gathering, don't forget to ask other business owners and friends about their experiences with certain agents, and don't forget to look at exactly what each package offers. Don’t sell yourself short and go with the economy package that will cost you more money down the road.

To get you further acquainted with the incorporation process, here is a brief list of terms, along with their defintions, that you may find useful:

Corporation:

This is a type of business formation that is established with perpetual duration. It is allowed to borrow money and enter into contract negotiations separate and independent from its owners. Owners are protected by the "corporate veil", which prevents debts against the company from being held against the owners.

Limited Liability Company (LLC):

A Limited Liability Company is a type of business formation that is owned by members and operated by managers. It is especially suitable for holding investment assets like real estate.

Registered Agent:

This person is designated to collect a company's Series of Process. He or she must be located, and available, at the provided business address. A registered agent is required by law.
