Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ - The Process of Business Formation Explained
A successful business is the result of meticulous planning, calculated risks paying off at the right time and some amount of luck. However, even if you are working out of a garage or your own kitchen, there is a natural progression that you have to consider. If your business is showing promise, the question staring at you is this: what next?
Business formation is the logical thing to do.
Min you, business formation is not always the right choice for a successful business. The type of business is a crucial factor. A litmus test that experts recommend is to go and check your accounts books. If your earnings have been rising steadily and show every promise of continuing its steady rise, you may be better off forming a business.
If you have already crossed that bridge and decided that you are going ahead with forming your own business, the next step is to get your hands dirty. Registering a company is not very complicated, what with many websites doing all the hard work for a small fee. Even so, it is advisable to understand the process so you know what is happening. There is a lot of paperwork to be covered and a lot of decisions to make.
You can set the ball rolling by picking a company name. Remember to choose something that befits your business. The next step is to select the business type. By now, you would already have picked your business area too. Before incorporation, you would also need to include the names of important office bearers in your organization like shareholders and company directors. Since each of these factors plays an important role in your success, it is vital to pay special attention to them.
Registering a company is not the end of the process of business formation. In fact, it is just the beginning. When you register a company, you are legally responsible for following a number of binding rules. Failure to follow them can end in serious violation of regulations and even involve legal authorities (something you definitely want to avoid). Some of these are simple things like displaying the name of the business or even sending a letter to your client on company stationery.
One of the most effective ways of avoiding blunders and traps, both at the time of setting up the business and running it, is to make use of expert advice. If you decide to form a business, it is better to consider specialists for the job, both at the time of incorporating your business and while running it. Some people may consider this a waste of money, but expertise has its rewards, particularly in the long run, when each of your early decisions begins to bear fruit. By getting the right advice, you can avoid common yet costly mistakes and you would not have to revisit any of the old decisions you took. Remember, any mistake you make can have financial as well as legal repercussions.
