How engagements work — Fixed-fee formation package by state and entity type; state filing fees billed at cost.
The problems we solve
You don't know whether to be an LLC, S-Corp, or C-Corp.
Entity comparison modeled on your projected profit — including the tax cost of each option over three years.
You formed the entity but can't open a bank account.
EIN, operating agreement, and formation documents packaged in the order banks and lenders actually ask for.
Licenses and tax accounts get missed.
A jurisdiction checklist — state, city, TPT/sales tax, payroll accounts, and industry licensing — completed and confirmed.
Books start messy from day one.
Chart of accounts, bookkeeping, and payroll set up at formation so year one is clean.

- Sales tax / TPT and use tax registration
- Payroll withholding and unemployment accounts
- Registered agent and statutory address setup

Where the money comes back
Every engagement is scoped against a return: cost removed, margin recovered, cash pulled forward, or exposure closed.
Right entity from day one
Choosing between LLC, S-Corp election, and C-Corp before you file avoids a costly re-registration later. An S-Corp election at $180K of profit can change the self-employment tax base materially.
Avoid rejected filings
Articles and name reservations get bounced by the Arizona Corporation Commission for formatting and registered-agent errors. A reviewed filing package reduces the number of paid resubmissions you absorb.
Funding-ready from formation
Lenders and landlords ask for an operating agreement, EIN letter, and clean chart of accounts before releasing funds or signing a lease. Having them ready removes a common approval delay.
Compliance penalties avoided
Missed TPT registration, payroll account setup, or license renewals carry state penalties and interest. A 90-day compliance calendar puts each deadline on your calendar before it becomes a fine.

What working with us feels like
One advisor, start to finish
Julius Ndahiro owns the engagement from entity selection through your first QuickBooks close, so you are not re-explaining your business to a new contact at each step.
Document collection in one place
You upload IDs, lease documents, and partner information through a single secure portal link rather than emailing scans back and forth across multiple threads.
Same-week filing turnaround
Once your entity decision and documents are confirmed, filing packages go to the state within the same week, state processing times vary from there.
Plain-language explanations
Every form is explained before you sign it: what the operating agreement controls, why the EIN matters, and what each license authorizes you to do.

Platforms included
Configuration, integration, and day-to-day administration are part of the fee — you are not billed to keep your own systems running.
The cost of leaving it alone
Wrong entity chosen at filing
Correcting an entity type after formation requires dissolving and re-registering, which duplicates state fees and delays your bank account and EIN.
TPT or license registration missed
Operating without a required transaction privilege tax license or city permit exposes the business to back taxes, penalties, and interest accrual.
No compliance calendar in place
Annual report and license renewal deadlines are easy to miss without a tracked calendar, risking administrative dissolution or lapsed permits.
