Before you start the incorporation process, there are five key decisions you need to make — and getting them right from the start will save you time, money, and headaches down the road.

In this episode I walk you through each decision so you can go into the incorporation process informed and set your corporation up properly from day one.

What we cover:

• Federal vs. provincial incorporation — which is right for you
• Named vs. numbered corporation — does it matter?
• How to choose a corporate name
• Share structure and ownership — why you need to think about this carefully at the start
• Choosing your fiscal year end — and why December 31 isn't always the best choice
