What does it really mean to incorporate my business?
I have survived this long without it.
Do I really need this?
Through incorporation, the business's owner or owners establish a distinct legal entity for the purpose of conducting business. This new business entity, which may be a corporation or a limited liability company (LLC), alters the way the business is viewed by the law and frequently confers greater credibility on potential customers, vendors, and employees. Corporations have many of the same rights as individuals, including the ability to acquire property, sign contracts, maintain bank accounts, and file lawsuits.
Why is incorporating my business so important?
Is it true that incorporation protect
my personal assets?
The primary advantage of incorporating a business is limited liability. When you own a small business, you will invest a significant amount of money not only to get it started, but also to keep it running smoothly. As the owner, you are personally liable for any debts or losses incurred by your business. When you incorporate, on the other hand, you are typically only liable for the amount of money you personally invest. Generally, your personal assets cannot be used to satisfy your business's debts and liabilities.
What Type of Corporation should I choose?
If circumstances change,
can I change it later?
Now, it's time to decide what type of corporation you will choose. You can incorporate your business as a C Corporation, an S Corporation, Non-Profit Organization, Sole proprietorship, Limited Partnership or a Limited Liability Corporation. Each of these types has its own advantages and disadvantages, so you should explore the explanations of each corporation type and consult a tax accountant for advice. However, remember the form of organization that you choose isn't permanent. If the circumstances of your business change, you can always change the form of your business.
