How to Incorporate Your Business
Summary
Achieving business success often involves hard work, sharp business acumen, and a bit of luck. However, many potential pitfalls are beyond one’s control. Your business structure plays a crucial role in managing risk and can significantly impact your business's success or failure. Options include being a sole proprietor, forming partnerships, establishing a limited liability company (LLC), or creating a corporation. While sole proprietorships and partnerships do not require state registration, incorporating a business involves specific steps, such as choosing the type of corporation, naming it, selecting a state for incorporation, and filing the necessary documents.

Business success relies on hard work, good business sense, and a touch of luck. Yet, unforeseen factors can lead to failure. Choosing the right business structure can help manage risk effectively. You can opt to be a sole proprietor, partner with others, or form a limited liability company (LLC) or a corporation. Only the latter two require state registration.
Steps to Incorporate
Incorporating a business involves several steps:
1. Choose the Type of Corporation: Determine the appropriate type by considering if you need to raise public capital, the corporation's duration, management structure, and type (LLC vs. corporation). An S Corporation offers a special tax structure to avoid double taxation.
2. Select a Unique Name: As a corporation is a separate legal entity, it must have a unique name. Check with authorities to ensure your chosen name isn't already in use. You might need to modify it slightly if it is, such as appending "bank" to the business name.
3. Decide on the State of Incorporation: You must register your corporation in the operating state. Alternatively, you can incorporate in a different state with favorable tax conditions and designate a registered agent with a local physical address to manage communications.
4. File the Necessary Documents: Complete the incorporation by filing the required documents, including details about your business and a registration fee, typically around $400. Expedited processing is available for an additional fee.
Incorporation is a strategic move that requires careful planning and execution. By following these steps, you can ensure a smooth incorporation process and set a solid foundation for your business's future success.
