Grants vs. Loans: Which One Is Right for Your Business?
“Your business needs money to grow, and when it comes to funding you have several options. A small business loan gives you some capital now, although you’ll have to repay it with interest over time. A grant will also provide you with money, without repayment, but there are often strings attached. We’ll dig into the differences between small business loans and grants to help you decide what’s right for you.”
LLC vs. Nonprofit: Your Guide to Making the Right Decision
“You might think that operating as either a limited liability company (LLC) or a nonprofit is simply a choice of whether you want to make money or not, but it’s not quite as simple as that. We’ll break down some of the main factors you’ll want to consider so you can make the best decision for your business.”
Can an LLC Owner File for Unemployment?
“LLC owners are busy people. Many, in addition to nurturing and growing their own business, also work part or full-time for an outside employer. That can certainly help create financial security during the uncertain early days of fledgling startups, but what does it mean if and when outside employment is terminated? The regulations regarding unemployment benefits for LLC owners are nuanced and varied. We’ve compiled the highlights of what you need to know about filing for and collecting unemployment.”
Why Your Small Business Should Start a Retirement Plan Now
“As an entrepreneur, odds are you’re spending more time thinking about stepping into your business than stepping out of it and entering retirement. Though it might be difficult to focus right now on when you or your employees are going to retire, spending a bit of time to set up a small business retirement plan can have huge advantages in the future.
We all want to live well in our senior years, and the best way to do that is to ensure you have enough money to retire and live on. Most people know that the longer your money is invested in a retirement plan, the more chance it has to grow. This means the sooner you set up a small business retirement plan, the better it will be for you and the other plan participants.”
Fiscal Sponsorship: Advantages & Risks for a Nonprofit
“Fiscal sponsorship is a specialized way for an individual, group or business to get charitable funding without starting a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization themselves. It’s considered an alternative to starting a nonprofit, but there are several important areas that you’ll need to be aware of if you want to get involved with fiscal sponsorship.”
