Before a business plan is presented to funders, they would like to see that at least some low cost steps have been taken by the founders. One of these is to choose a legal structure for the business and to incorporate it, a process which generally costs only hundreds of dollars.There are three major issues to consider when choosing a legal structure: control, liability, and taxes. Different legal structures have pros and cons on these three issues and you must seek what you are comfortable with and what will work best for the business both now and throughout its projected growth. The major legal structures to consider are sole proprietorships, partnerships, limited partnerships, corporations, and S corporations.ControlA sole proprietorship retains the greatest amount of control for the founder (100% of ownership control to be exact). Structures that allow for investors to take part mean an increasing loss of control from the founder. These include partnerships, corporations and S corporations.

Often those who start non profits do so with a keen disinterest in the for profit business world and the focus on revenues and bottom lines this world generally entails. Because of this mindset, non profit directors often are not well prepared for the serious financial needs of their organizations. And while, in an ideal world, funding for a service that fills a demonstrated social need may simply fall into place, in the real world, funding is fought for just as heartily as a business seeks to hit its sales numbers. Furthermore, the initial funding a non profit needs to launch may be hard to come by without any track record proving the ability of the organization to do any real good with its money. "Quick Wins" Approach Your non profit organization must demonstrate its ability to serve its stated purpose before significant grant and donor funding are brought in. One way to achieve this is to create a prototype project which uses the methods which you plan for the organization and to launch this project with your own funds, or with limited funds provided by a select group of donors. Conditions A few important conditions apply for this type of non profit "demo". First of all,...more
