Why is MyCompanyWorks the right solution?
Warning #1: “File-only” shops. Most of our smaller competitors simply file your initial paperwork with the state (if it doesn’t get rejected — less than 1% of our filings are rejected) and send you a copy. This is not the complete process. There are step-by-step procedures (holding an organizational meeting, issuing shares, adopting Bylaws or Operating Agreements, etc.) for properly setting up your company that must be completed. In fact, not doing these procedures will nullify most of the benefits of incorporating or forming an LLC in the first place.
Warning #2: Do the math! Find out the actual state fee (which you can view on our site). You’ll discover that those $49 and $75 services are actually hiding considerable fees within the state fee. Be especially vigilant for “Rush”, “Expedited” and “Delivery” fees which can be outrageously high.
Warning #3: Get ready for telemarketing, spam and junk mail from our large corporate competitors. They freely sell your information and attempt to upsell you for the life of your company (one company is famous for calling weekly and never seems to stop). They bypass the “Do Not Call” rules because you engaged their services. Our privacy policy expressly prohibits selling your data or marketing to you without your permission (e.g. you subscribe to our monthly newsletter).
