Small Business Setup

Starting a business is exciting. The paperwork that comes with it? Less so. I help new and early-stage business owners get set up properly from day one — so you're not paying to fix things later.

Entity selection, state registration, EIN applications, S-Corp elections, and accounting software implementation — I walk you through each step and handle the details so nothing gets missed.

The decisions you make at the start — what type of entity, how you're taxed, how your books are structured — affect everything that comes after. Getting them right the first time is worth the investment.

Entity Selection

At Katrina E. Meier CPA, we provide Entity Selection services to guide you through the process of choosing the right entity for your business. We will work with you to understand your goals and objectives and help you make an informed decision that is best for you. Each formation comes with different nuances that you will want to be aware of prior to making a decision as to which is best for you.

Software Implementation

One of the greatest challenges faced by all business entities is the selection and implementation of an accounting software system that matches the present and future needs of the organization. Overall, it should complement existing business practices and be adaptable to innovations in technology.
