Opening your own business is exciting and thrilling. A methodical plan of action dictates whether a small business will make it or not. Success lies in the approach you take and we help you avoid the pitfalls that many small business owners make when starting.

I help you:

• Select a business structure that best fits your needs by evaluating tax advantages, legal exposure, ease of operation and portability should you need to relocate
• Select the right accounting software by evaluating your budget, needs and hardware
• Establish billing and collection procedures to maximize your cash flow
• Establish procedures to monitor and control costs
• Setup a home office so you can maximize your tax deductions
• Prepare and file all required provincial and local licenses and permits
• Prepare and file your application for your CRA Business Number
• Provide payroll and payroll tax-filing when you bring on your first employee
• Comply with employment laws so you don't get hit with fines and unhappy employees
• Identify your business insurance needs
• Develop a solid Partnership Agreement. This is an extremely important document for all new partnerships and will help prevent a tremendous amount of financial and emotional problems down the road

We have your best interest at hand and work for a lasting relationship with all our clients.
