So you’ve decided to incorporate a small business and you’ve looked at all the available options for doing it and have selected an online service called Legal Zoom to help you with many of the formalities. Okay, me, too! So let’s do it…
1. Go to LegalZoom.com and click on Business Services from the main menu tabs and then choose Incorporation (S-Corp, C-Corp) from the sub-menu. You will see this screen:
2. Click the orange Get Started button.
3. Click the orange Get Started button again. Weird, but okay…
4. You’ll probably have to register as a new user to their site at this point…
5. Select the state that you would like to incorporate in. For some very brief considerations on that topic, read my previous posting here. (And for better advise, consult with a tax advisor or accountant). Most people incorporate in the state they live in…
6. I’m going to select Colorado for my incorporation, so the remaining screen shots may vary slightly, but I’m assuming the general process and look of the site will be roughly the same… and we’ll continue here with the next posting…
