Introduction: Simplifying Business Structures with TrustArte
Today, I’ll guide you through the process of setting up a Business Trust, an economical and faster alternative to corporations or LLCs that also offers enhanced privacy. My name is James, and I am the founder of TrustArte, where we streamline the Business Trust setup to help you start your business with ease.
The Hassle of Traditional Business Structures
Remember all that brain-numbing paperwork and a confusing Secretary of State’s website you had to deal with for your last corporation or LLC? From a name reservation to filing articles, amendments, and certificates of Good Standing, how many forms did you have to fill out? And what happened after that? You’ve got a whole bunch of surprise letters from various business organizations and the government, too. It’s just complicated; it feels like Big Brother is constantly watching.
Why Choose a Business Trust?
So, what we offer instead is an alternative, which is a Business Trust. It’s much, much easier, and I’m going to show you how easy it is—at least the way we do it. We use a PDF form, and all the information relevant to the Business Trust is on this front page. You fill in the data and all the new information that you need, and it automatically populates the document. It’s about 20 pages long. Then, you simply get it signed and notarized, and you’re up and running in business. That’s all it takes!
Addressing Common Concerns
One thing you do need to remember with any blank forms, including ours, is the context and answering the questions here. And so you might be concerned, “Did I answer the forms right? Did I do this correctly?” This is one of the reasons that people choose our Business Trust solution. We ask you all those strategic questions so you can answer comfortably and confidently to ensure everything is done correctly. As a result, you save time and money because we make it much easier for you.
Recap: Business Trust vs. Corporation or LLC
Let’s do a quick recap here. Setting up a corporation or LLC is tedious and frustrating because of all the paperwork involved and the various permissions needed. It’s just a hassle overall. On the other hand, if you choose the Business Trust route, it’s much easier, quicker, and safer. Another thing to remember with corporations and LLCs is their connection to the County Recorder’s office if they own real estate, which can lead to privacy concerns.
Conclusion: Embrace a Simpler, Safer Business Structure
That’s about it! If you are looking for an alternative business structure that is easier and offers anonymity, then check out the Business Trust. We’ve done corporations, LLCs, Land Trusts, and more, but we really prefer Business Trusts. We’ve been doing it for a long time, and there’s no looking back. I would encourage you to get one of these Trusts as well.
