The Problem

The Internet is Full of Bad Advice About U.S. Business Setup

You've spent hours researching LLCs, EINs, tax treaties, and bank accounts — only to end up more confused and more anxious about making a costly mistake.

What happens when you guess?

The real cost of bad advice isn't just money — it's months of delays and compounding mistakes.

Wrong entity type costs thousands in taxes
Bank applications rejected repeatedly
Missed deadlines trigger IRS penalties
Payment processors freeze your funds
Double taxation across countries
Months of revenue-killing delays

Generic advice that doesn't apply to you

Most guides are written for U.S. citizens. Tax law works completely differently for non-residents — the wrong structure can cost you thousands.

Fear of the IRS and steep penalties

You don't know what you owe, what forms to file, or when — and the penalties for getting it wrong range from fines to frozen accounts.

Platform restrictions block your growth

You can't access Stripe, Amazon, or other U.S. platforms without a properly structured U.S. entity and bank account — costing you revenue every day.

Wasted time, money, and momentum

You've tried to figure it out yourself — or hired someone who didn't specialize in international setups — and you're still stuck months later.
