<p align="center"><strong>The #1 Reason Businesses <span style="color: #ff0000;">FAIL</span> is Lack of Cash Flow.</strong></p>
<p align="center"><strong><br />
Does your Business have the Proper Lines of Trade Credit and Cash Lines Established?</strong><span id="more-152"></span></p>
<p align="center"><strong> </strong></p>
<p align="center"><strong>Are You Losing Business</strong><strong> Because of a Weak (or no) Business Credit Profile? </strong></p>
<p align="center"><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Introducing the</span> </strong><strong><em>Newly Improved</em></strong><strong> <span style="color: #0000ff;">Ultimate Business Credit Builder System</span> and our<br />
June Special (our Best Offer Ever):</strong></p>
<p>One of the main reasons you incorporated or formed an LLC was to separate your business assets from your personal assets. This will help you limit your liability and have a better marketing advantage when it comes to joint ventures <strong>(the fastest way to grow your business-especially host beneciary relationships). </strong></p>
<p><strong>The key is to separate for success.</strong> The big mistake we see is that many entrepreneurs invest all their money to separate their personal and business assets but NEVER separate their personal and business credit (at least not properly).</p>
<p align="center"><strong>4 Critical Reasons to Separate Business Credit (in your entity)<br />
from Your Personal Credit:</strong></p>
<p><strong>1. It is how your business will be evaluated for business and joint ventures.</strong> You may be losing clients, bids, vendors and joint ventures without even knowing about it. Why? The best way to check out a company’s financials is to invest $40-$130 with Dun and Bradstreet® to pull a report. This will tell you everything you need to know about someone&#8217;s business. Most of you will NOT like what will be seen on your report. FYI, a 80 Paydex score will not cut it.</p>
<p><strong>How do You Feel Standing Financially Naked in Front of Your Customers? Now it may be time to fix that and put your &#8220;financial clothes&#8221; on. </strong></p>
<p><strong>2. Whether you like it or not, Corporate Experian®</strong> is NOW creating profiles on companies through the SOS’s database on new filings. This means a profile is being created and you do not know what it will say to your potential customers (unless you know how to develop it properly).</p>
<p><strong>3. Develop vendor lines of credit to protect your cash flow AND put your business in a better position to secure CASH LINES of credit to grow your business.</strong> As you know the banks have raised the bar dramatically on what is required to secure a bank line of credit (one key component is the amount of vendor credit granted to your business-not just an 80 Paydex score).</p>
<p><strong>4. You will protect your personal credit (whether it is good or bad) from your new business.</strong> If your personal credit is strong, you will want to minimize personal guarantees with vendors that may jeopardize your personal credit plus develop cash lines of credit in the name of the entity under the EIN number (yes, it is personally guaranteed but the <strong>debt will not show up in your personal credit bureaus</strong>-which will help protect your personal credit score.</p>
<p>If you have a <strong>bad personal credit score,</strong> you MUST develop your business credit profile to put the business in a position to qualify for credit on its own!</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>The Biggest Mistake?</strong></span> <strong>Waiting</strong> to develop the business credit profile <strong>until you need</strong> the vendor or cash lines of <strong>credit</strong>. If your business is doing well and you feel you do NOT need the credit that is the best time to develop it.</p>
<p>This is what <strong>George Ross, the attorney for Donald Trump</strong> told me when I asked him the best time to develop relationship with banks. Develop the credit <strong>before</strong> you need it.</p>
<p><strong>Are you an International Owner of a U.S. Company?</strong> What are your options? Will our program help you? Call and find out the options and adjusted fees for your U.S. Cash Machine!</p>

<li><strong>Incorporate or form an LLC for your business!</strong> If you have not done this yet, call Nevada Corporate Planners, Inc. at 1-888-627-7007!</li>
<li><strong>Stop using your personal credit cards </strong>to finance your business.</li>
<li><strong>After you form your LLC or corporation for your business, apply for a business credit card in the name of the LLLC or corporation. </strong></li>
<li><strong>Set up a plan to pay down your personal revolving debt to the 5-20% range.</strong> Fist, develop a 8 month personal emergency fund.  If you require $6K per month to live personally that means you will need $48K in savings first for your personal emergency fund. After that, start to pay down your personal credit cards. Do not pay them off each month. You will improve your credit score by leaving a small balance of 5% each month.</li>
<li><strong>Set up a merchant account to accept credit cards for your business. </strong>For the best rates and service contact Nevada Corporate Planners, Inc. at 1-888-627-7007 for a referral.</li>
<li><strong>Develop a D &amp; B® profile for the LLC or Corporation.</strong> We would recommend you do not do this on your and contact Nevada Corporate Planners, Inc. at 1-888-627-7007 for options in this area.<span id="more-135"></span>
<ol>
<li>When you are on a program, vendors will report to both D &amp; B® and Corporate Experian® to build your credit profiles.</li>
<li>If your corporation or LLC is “fried” with D &amp; B® call Nevada Corporate Planners, Inc. at 1-888-627-7007 to consider forming a new entity.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>If you have been in business for at least 9 months and have at least $10K per month in VISA/MASTERCARD sales as a corporation or LLC you <strong>may qualify for a merchant account cash advance. </strong></li>
<li>If your personal credit score is over 720, and your personal revolving debt is below 30% ratio and your company has been in business for one year with profits, you may qualify for a bank business line of credit. You may receive up to 10-15% of your annual gross revenue. If you expect your sales to spike in the next 6 months and you need  the time to improve your personal credit and pay down your personal credit you may want to wait before applying.</li>
<li><strong>Set up your business each year to show a small profit at a minimum.</strong> The higher the profit the better for future financing. Do not make the effort to have extra expenses to show a small loss. That will hurt you later on for financing.</li>
</ol>

<p>I&#8217;ve seen made by hopeful, yet sadly uninformed individuals over the years.</p>
<p>Here are a few more secrets to give you the ability to avoid common mistakes.  When it comes to developing business credit you need every secret you can get.<br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><br />
Avoid Costly Mistakes when Developing Business Credit!</strong></span></p>
<p><span id="more-126"></span></p>
<p>What are some of the other mistakes business owners make if they were going to do it themselves,<br />
in regards to a business license, phone number, and some of those things that they don’t know about?<br />
<strong><br />
If you’re not listed in 411,</strong> then that business number is unverifiable.  A lot of people we deal<br />
with say they don’t have to be listed in 411.  They don’t need that. If you’re not listed in 411.</p>
<p><strong>Is your address on your business license is different than the address with the Secretary of<br />
State</strong>, if your officers don’t match what they call the company representative and ask them who those officers are.</p>
<p>Sometimes if you don’t have a website, they’ll note that.</p>
<p><strong>Business ownership,</strong> if they have more than one answer to a question come from either businesses,<br />
a licensing department, state, company representative, or public information, a negative comment will be<br />
put on that credit file.</p>
<p>There’s a number of things that people can do before they go to Dun and Bradstreet, to make sure that they’re in corporate compliance and a number of things that they can do not properly that will get a negative comment put on that file.</p>
<p>D &amp; B Secret!</p>
<p><strong>Even if You Have Been in Business for Six Years Your Company May Have NO Profile with D &amp; B! </strong><br />
They’ve paid all their bills on time.  They still may not have any type of business credit file developed.</p>
<p>The main reason is that they have vendors that <strong>do NOT report their good payment activity to D &amp; B. </strong> Most business owners think since they pay their bills on time that is enough and vendors report.</p>
<p>That is NOT what happens.</p>
<p>Think about it. All the vendors that own you money do you take the time, labor and effort to report to D &amp; B? Probably not!</p>
<p>Now that you know more secrets, take the next step to see if you business will qualify for business credit (cash and vendor credit) and call <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Fast Business Credit at 1-888-313-6333</strong></span> and together we can tailor-fit the perfect solutions for your situation.</p>

<p>Want to know how to form a S Corporation?</p>
<p>Before you start a business, be sure to do your homework. Hire a professional to help you through the process, review the advantages and disadvantages of each type of business, and establish business lines of credit so that you can have sufficient capitalization for your venture.</p>
<p><span id="more-20"></span></p>
<p>The first step is to take off your do-it-yourself hat. If you want to be successful in business, itâ€™s important to surround yourself with others who can guide you through the process and avoid costly mistakes. Thatâ€™s why youâ€™ll want to hire a professional to take care of matters that youâ€™re not familiar with. Before you file the paperwork, hire a professional business advisor who can walk you through the process and will be available to help you in the early stages of your business. Ideally, the company you seek does more than just form the S corporation. As you know, 80-95% of business owners fail within 5 years. The key is for that company to provide you resources to help grow your business to the next level!</p>
<p>There are several advantages to forming an S Corporation. Here are just a few. Check with a professional business consultant for a full list of advantages:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>You wonâ€™t pay corporate taxes.</strong> This means that you wonâ€™t have to pay the double taxation penalty that corporations must pay. This means huge tax savings for the owner(s) because it passes through your personal income taxes. However, youâ€™re expected to pay yourself a reasonable salary by industry standards. Your salary is taxed at 15.3%, the same amount as self-employment tax. The IRS keeps an eye on businesses that pay unreasonably low salaries in order to avoid taxes, so be realistic when you determine your salary to avoid the IRS red flag.</p>
<p><strong>Youâ€™ll have heightened liability protection.</strong> While you wonâ€™t be protected for everything, for the most part, you personal property is protected when youâ€™re dealing with creditors, liens, and lawsuits. Become familiar with the liability protection that is available (and not available) by forming an LLC taxed as an S corporation vs. just an S corporation.</p>
<p><strong>Taxable gains are reduced.</strong> If you should ever decide to sell the business, you may pay less on taxable gains than you would with a corporation.</p>
<p>Once youâ€™ve hired a consultant and have decided to move forward, youâ€™ll have to file Form 2553 with the IRS to get started (keep in mind you may have to file a similar form at the state level also). Here are some of the requirements:</p>
<p><strong>You cannot have more than 100 shareholders.</strong> If a husband and wife jointly form an S Corporation, they are considered as one shareholder. Certain trusts, estates, and individuals qualify as shareholders in the S Corporation structure, as long as they are American citizens. This is a problem if you are looking to have investors and you later realize that an investor may not invest into your S corporation as a Corporation, LLC taxed as a partnership or foreigner.</p>
<p><strong>All shareholders agree to the S Corporation structure.</strong> Presumably youâ€™ll all be in agreement but if youâ€™re not, you cannot form an S Corporation entity.</p>
<p><strong>You must form your domestic company within the United States.</strong> Please check with individual states because laws vary regarding business requirements.</p></blockquote>
<p>Once youâ€™ve filed the paperwork, be sure to plan ahead and establish business lines of credit. Credit is awarded according to the cash you have on hand, not your need for it. Stop using your personal credit cards and pay down the balances. The more responsible you are personally, the more likely youâ€™ll be able to establish credit for your business.</p>
<p>Starting an S Corporation does not have to be a headache. Consult with a professional so youâ€™ll avoid the costly mistakes that come with inexperience. Then you can focus on taking your business straight to the top of your market.</p>
