A Foreword From Scott Letourneau, Nevada Corporate Planner CEO


Dear Partner In Business Success,

The road to hell (and business disaster) is paved with good intentions… What do I mean by that? The advent of the Internet brought a multitude of strategic advantages to you as a business owner. But for all its benefits, the Internet may also do you one great disservice -- that of oversimplification. Sadly, this is particularly true in the area of corporate formation. The multitude of Interline companies in this business love to make it appear that forming a new corporation or LLC is easy. Just fill out a simple one page form, and your business and personal assets are protected, right? Wrong! Unfortunately, oversimplification in this vital strategic step is a devastating mis-step for the uninformed. Many well-meaning business owners are at this moment hard at work in their office, blissfully unaware that their hastily-filed form has set them up for at least one (and probably several) of the deadly mistakes in this valuable report, any one of which may cost them dearly. Only the naïve are unaware that they become a lawsuit target from the moment they open their door for business. That’s obviously why you’re looking into forming a corporation or LLC in the first place. With Nevada Corporate Planner’s help and guidance, you can avoid the landmines in starting your company, or in protecting your existing assets, both business and personal. “Cut costs and maximize profit” is every business’s mantra. But cutting costs on certain key elements of your start-up expenses or strategic planning is like building your foundation on cracked concrete. No matter what brilliant moves you make in the future, that flaw is waiting just below the surface, ready to sink your entire enterprise. (And bear in mind that fully 95% of all new businesses fail in the first five years.)

“Welcome to NCP. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and experienced company equipped

to provide you and your professionals with the information you need to form the best entity for you,

look no further.”


But you don’t have to make their mistake. Build your foundation with a company that supports you through start up and beyond, and you’ll forever have the confidence of knowing that the groundwork you’ve done will eternally sustain and champion your enterprise. The purpose of “The Top 20 Mistakes Before And After” is two fold. First, I want to get you on the right mental track, with your eyes fully opened to the threats that lurk in the business world. I’ve heard many, many horror stories from business owners that have come to me for help after some litigation or business disaster has reduced their hard-won assets to rubble, and in nearly every case I can find the one or two simple preventative steps they could have taken to avoid the entire devastation. I’d like to pass those many lessons on to you, so you don’t have to learn them the hard way. Second, I want to show you how you can not only avoid disaster, but optimize every move that you make so that the structure of your entire company runs like an integrated machine. You shouldn’t -- and don’t -- have to work any harder than you want to, and with the proper preparation you can concentrate on building and growing your greatest asset, one that will sustain you and your family for years, or even generations to come. Yours In Success, Scott Letourneau CEO Nevada Corporate Planners, Inc.

Asset Protection and Business I.Q. Question # 5: What could happen if you have the incorrect operating agreement for an LLC taxed as an S corporation? A) Pay less in taxes B) The operating agreement may have language that violates the S corporation

shareholder rules and automatically revoke your S election. (Then the LLC would be taxed as a C corporation and be subject to double taxation.)

NOT completing a Buy/Sell agreement for the partners (Again, being crystal clear will save your sanity.)


Why is a Buy/Sell agreement important?

Once you’ve completed your research and are ready to go, the next thing on your mind may be, “OK, now I’m an expert. What’s the cheapest price I can get from an entity formation company?”

Proceed with caution. We’ve talked to literally hundreds of business owners over the years. If there’s one thing we’ve learned beyond the shadow of a doubt from those who have been sued, poured money down bottomless tax or expense holes, or whose businesses have failed, it’s this:

NOT ONE was excited over the few bucks they saved by using a low cost company -- or worse, flying solo -- to incorporate or establish an LLC for their business.

Years and untold dollars later, they sorely regret the hard work, stress, and many, many lost hours of time with family and friends -- consumed instead by lawyers, bankers, accountants and creditors, while picking up the pieces from a devastating lawsuit or bankruptcy.

All of those losses were the indirect, and sometimes direct result of “penny-wise, pound foolish” thinking. And every one of them could have been prevented by proper planning with the right company to support them. Those unfortunates have learned (the hard way) the value of having a company like NCP at their side, constantly guarding against missteps and roadblocks.


We at NCP hear the same basic horror stories told over and over again. And while we’d never say “we told you so,” we’ve learned from them as well. That’s why we’ve produced this Asset Protection and Business I.Q. Test -- to help you avoid these pitfalls.

There was no doubt that there was some central reason why you went into business in the first place -- a skill or talent that you are outstanding at, or your great contacts… Remember to focus on what YOU do best. Don’t attempt to be a jack of all trades…I don’t need to tell you the rest.

Here is what I would recommend you do next. Call our offices at 1-877-515-0505 and ask to schedule a free consultation with our business analysts. They will answer your questions and share with you how we can help. (When you call, ask about our money-saving packages.)

YOU will decide if you want our team to help with your situation. You may simply want to schedule a one-hour consultation session and pay a reasonable fee to “double check” that you are on the right track. Remember, you may be spending 10-14 hour per day growing your business, investing thousands of dollars on a monthly basis. Get a second opinion on your structure before you start… at a minimum, you and your family deserve at least that.

Let me ask you this: If you were going to have major heart surgery, would you get a second opinion? Why should decisions that directly affect your family’s financial future be any different?

Answers to Your Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I’m not looking to form a new company, but I have accumulated many valuable assets. Can you help me protect them?

A: Yes. Nevada Corporate Planners can help you whether you’re in the challenging position of forming a company to operate your new business venture or you’ve accumulated assets and you want them properly protected. We provide information for you and your professionals to analyze. This information will help you discover which entity will be best for you, and in doing so, save you the daunting task of conducting countless hours of research.

Q: So many companies recommend so many different things. “LLC,” one says. “S-corporation,” says another. How can I be sure I’m making the right choice?

A: There’s no way around it — research, research, research! I walked a mile in your shoes before I established NCP in 1997, because I wanted the best and most accurate information on which entity would be best for my situation. I grew frustrated when I found that I couldn’t get the same answers or input from any one company, which prompted me to form NCP — so you wouldn’t have to go through the same thing I did!

To make sure you get the RIGHT information — accurate information — and advice to help you decide what’s best for your particular situation, I dedicate a large part of NCP’s resources to research. We frequently interview dozens of companies that form corporations in Nevada and Delaware, as well as firms throughout the other 48 states. Also, to personalize our research on your


behalf, we have all this information available on our website for you, your CPA, and your attorney to utilize to help you make the best choice for your situation.

In fact, when I first became committed to bringing you the best research on structuring, I thought it would take a year or so to compile the best answers. As the years have passed and laws have changed, I discovered that the research is never ending. Eight years and 3,600 clients later, NCP has over 1000 pages of research on its website alone, and it continues to grow. We also distribute additional research findings and information by way of frequent publications.

Q: I want to make sure the decision I make will be best for me over time…not just what’s best for today. Can NCP help?

A: Yes. Beyond our commitment to bringing you the latest and most up-to-date research on information and laws surrounding your entity selection, I believe that’s where NCP really shines. We provide information for you when considering your long-term goals and requirements and help you arrange and select your entity with those thoughts in mind. For instance, it might be beneficial in the short-term for you to form a C-Corporation this year. However, an S-Corporation in year two might bring you even more benefits and in years three and four, an LLC taxed as a partnership could be the best idea.

After you read our web site and speak to your professionals you will more fully understand which entity is best for you. Then call NCP and we will explain our services and fees for filing your Nevada entity along with our support services!

Q: How do I know you’re not one of those “here today, gone tomorrow” Internet firms?

A: We use the Internet as a way to introduce ourselves to Internet-savvy clients and as an information portal for those who want the latest and most accurate information. That being said, you may look to my dedication, research, quality and focus on improving NCP's services to better meet your requirements, which has attracted more than 3,900 clients to date, as well as some of the top business leaders in the United States. Once you speak with us, you’ll understand why these business leaders are drawn to NCP, and why they recommend us in the most glowing terms! Just one example is tax attorney/CPA Sandy Botkin, best selling author of Lower Your Taxes; BIG TIME!

Q: Do your services and assistance end after the sale?

A: Absolutely not! I assure you, NCP will be here for you even after we help you form your entity. For example, you’ll have unlimited access to professional entity counselors who will answers all of your entity and business formation questions. We’ll send you email reminders, in addition to follow-up phone calls, so you know what to do next when it comes to your business. When your entity is up for renewal, we’ll send you a written notice, as well as call you and email you to make sure you keep your company in good standing. You’ll gain access to our voluminous Members Only or VIP Members Only websites, jam-packed with key strategies to protect your assets. Plus much more.


Q: Do you offer other “after-formation” services that will help me run my business, like tax and bookkeeping, marketing and legal resources?

A: Yes! Because of the size and quality of our client base, NCP is in a strong position to negotiate much better rates than you might be able to get on your own for a variety of products and services. For example, we are able to recommend qualified accountants and CPAs who will help you with your corporate taxes and accounting, including helping you set up your initial books. Other services include:

Additional Services during/after Incorporating or forming an LLC!

Foreign Registration Process

This is a must for a company that needs to register as a foreign entity in the state(s) in which the entity is conducting business. This is usually at least the state where you reside, because typically you are either an employee of the corporation or the manager of an LLC. Both of those events require the corporation or LLC to register in your home state. NCP will complete process and provide you with the forms necessary to register the entity in the states where the entity is required to register. They are four parts to this process:

1. Obtain a certificate of good standing from Nevada. This is a must for all entities that are registering as foreign entities in the states in which they are doing business. It is required by other states to know that this entity is in “good standing” with Nevada before they will allow registration in their state. Typically, the entity will register in the state where you live. The entity may be required to register in other states also. This certificate is valid for 30-90 days. This depends upon the state’s requirements in which registration will take place.

2. Obtain the Federal Tax ID Number for your new entity. Remember, every new entity needs a SEPARATE EIN number. The company will need this to open a bank account, obtain a business license and start payroll.

3. Obtain a Nevada State Business License. This license is required for every entity formed in Nevada, which is not doing business in Nevada and does not have employees in Nevada. This service is required for every entity that is registering as a foreign entity in a different state. If you are not registering, you do not need this service. Your entity would then need a complete business license in Nevada, in which the state license is one part of this complete process. This is an annual license.

4. Complete the forms to register as a foreign corporation/LLC in your state of operations. After completing this process then you would obtain a bank account in your home state (rarely is one needed in Nevada). *

*The foreign registration fee is separate from our fees for this process. The state may have other requirements regarding the business license and registration with the department of taxation. These items are not covered by this service.

1st Quarter Tax and Bookkeeping Services

Here are the facts about running a business:

1. 95% fail in the first five years and the number one reason is cash flow! 2. Most of those businesses make the critical mistake of avoiding having access to the

most important, NON-EMOTIONAL feedback on how your business is really doing-their numbers!

3. Those businesses that have accurate numbers from the start of their business, are much more likely to be more successful and make better business decisions!

4. Therefore we create our 1st quarter tax and bookkeeping service to help you be more successful!

Let me tell you about our 1st Quarter Tax and Bookkeeping Service:

Here’s what’s included in the first quarter:

A. We will help you set up your Chart of Accounts on Quick Books (the Quick Books software is not included.)

i. For example, the “Income,” “Cost of Goods Sold” and “Expenses” categories must be clearly defined and properly distinguished from each other. You do NOT want “Expenses” in “Cost of Goods Sold,” or visa versa. This very common mistake will give you wrong information on your gross and net profits – the bottom line when it comes time to pay yourself and others.

ii. We also provide one FREE hour of consulting throughout the first quarter. We will help you with questions on payroll, taxes, depreciation, capitalization or other important issues.


(Should you need more time, we charge $200 per additional hour.) Typical areas where our clients need support with that hour of consultation:

1. Guidance with setting up payroll - Although we don’t

maintain your payroll for you, we advise you on the steps involved in setting up your system. (For long-term support, we recommend use of payroll services.)

2. Guidance with entering your revenue into and paying bills through Quick Books. We help keep you on track, ensuring that you enter all your revenue and pay bills correctly, optimizing your use of this software.

3. Guidance with quarterly 941 (1/2 payroll taxed to the IRS. Annually = 940).

B. We provide a Quarterly review of Quick Books (online). We check in with you at the

end of the first quarter to ensure that you’re on track by helping you: • Review your entries • Print out and interpret your P&L (Profit and Loss) • Answer any questions concerning your bank reconciliation (client

does the reconciliation - we review your work.)

Remember, you are not locked into more than one quarter at a time. You might want to use our service at least during the first quarter, then continue on your own, consider a local CPA, or continue with NCP.

Sandy Botkin’s Tax Saving Materials and Diary System

Mr. Botkin is one of the very smartest tax attorneys/CPAs in the United States. After three

years with a Big 6 accounting firm, Sandy was only one of eight political-appointees to train IRS audit agents back in Washington, D.C. on how to extract maximum dollars from you, the taxpayer. He now does seminars nationwide for tax attorneys and CPAs teaching them how to reverse the process.

Sandy’s materials include both a 175-page written workbook, containing 137 fully annotated

specific tax strategies plus eight 1-hour CDs recordings of the whole seminar. There’s also a leather-like, pocket-size daily expense diary with twelve monthly inserts which, if properly maintained, Sandy feels will protect you if you are audited! You will learn the following powerful strategies:

What dollar amount you need to keep receipts for when taking deductible entertainment

expenses How to write off all your fun like golf and movies How to deduct season tickets to anything How to write off a $3000 party at home How to take your spouse along on a business trip and make it tax deductible


How to get a deduction for college education for your kids How to take a home office deduction the right way What things reduce your chances for an audit How to make a cruise tax deductible How to hire your kids as employees and get the maximum benefits

It’s nice to realize that we have not only helped you achieve corporate perks but have also

helped show you how to maximize your normal write-off. You will also receive the same diary that Mr. Botkin developed for the IRS to help protect

you in case of an audit. This planner diary has every day perfectly outlined for any deductions you have incurred! All you have to do is fill in the blanks!

Testimonials From Other Professionals: “… As I note in my best selling book, Lower Your Taxes: BIG TIME, if you are going to incorporate, you should seriously consider doing so in Nevada. When I’m asked what incorporating companies I would recommend doing this, I unhesitatingly recommend Nevada Corporate Planners as being among the best.

“I have a number of reasons for this. First, I have found them to be very honest. It actually amazes me that they talk a number of people out of incorporating there if it isn’t right for the client’s situation. This is like Wal-Mart recommending Sears for certain things. Their commitment to being honorable is most laudable in today’s “fast, get-rich quick” mentality that I see in many businesses.

“Secondly, if incorporating or being a limited liability company is right for the client, they are very professional in the way that they handle the job. Everything is done with thoroughness and precision.

“Accordingly, I highly recommend this company for any incorporating services or agency services.”

Sandy Botkin, Tax Attorney and Certified Public Accountant. Author of Lower Your Taxes -- Big Time. He is listed in Who's Who in Business.

“… Asset protection strategies must be done properly to be effective. Many companies touch upon the highlights of asset protection. Nevada Corporate Planners, Inc. is different. They will spend extra time to make sure your situation is handled the right way, before and after you become a valued client of theirs. That is the reason I use NCP’s services for all my clients!”

Attorney Dr. Arnold S. Goldstein J.D., LL.M., Ph.D. Author of more than 100 books on finance and law, including Asset Protection Secrets

“NCP made the entire process as smooth as possible. They answer on every question and made sure I was comfortable before I made any commitment. Thank you in all you do. Keep up the great work.”

Jamal Hammett, Italy - 01/06

“Your staff has been very courteous and professional through out the process. They are knowledgeable and can easily be reached. I will consider using your services again in the near future.”

Sasan Aval, California


“As a newcomer to owning a business, I was more than impressed with not only NCP’s step-by-step help through the process, but also their attention to my needs. With their one-on-one attention, I feel as though I am set up to be profitable as possible.”

Eric Anderson, Virginia

“Starting a corporation can be a daunting task. NCP is very processional and makes the job of incorporating very easy.”

Thomas Pope, Nevada

“Your entire business team was well-informed, polite, and most importantly, followed through on commitments. Your team approach has made this process easier for our business team.”

Business experts call this the “lifetime value of a new client,” and we take that very seriously. We really appreciate your referrals!
