Business Basics, Starting A Business, Initial Steps, NursingEntrepreneurs.com

Steps To Start Any Business, in Any State (This example is for a nursing agency):

  • Develop a Business Plan.

    Small Business Administration:"What goes in a business plan? This is an excellent question. And, it is one that many new and potential small business owners should ask, but oftentimes don't ask. The body of the business plan can be divided into four distinct sections: 1) the description of the business, 2) the marketing plan, 3) the financial management plan and 4) the management plan. Addenda to the business plan should include the executive summary, supporting documents and financial projections."

    • What is your product or Service? (Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs), Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurses (LPN/LVNs), Registered Nurses (RNs)) providing nursing care.

    • Who will you provide it to? (Homecare patients, Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Small Businesses, Large Corporations).

      • When deciding whether to service Hospitals or Nursing Homes, remember that:
        • Hospitals will use more Registered Nurses (more highly skilled and can take on more responsibilities).
        • Nursing Homes will used more Licensed Practical/Vocational Nurses (it's much cheaper to use them for passing medications and doing treatments on a large scale-most RNs in Nursing Homes function as administrative or charge nurses).

    • What will you Charge?

    • Where will you operate from?

    • How will your fund your enterprise, cover Start-up Costs (Borrow Money, Use Existing Funds).

      Resource:
    How to Use Other People's Money for Your Business, By Matthew Lesko
  • Naming Your Business-Choose a name that will represent you and the services you intend to provide.

  • Optional: Choosing or Designing a logo: My personal feelings on this are, its appropriate for Nike or Visa, but for a small business just starting out it is expensive (a good logo can run you a few hundred to a few thousand dollars) and is not absolutely necessary. You can always create one later as you grow larger. Nursefriendly, Inc. does not have a logo, and doesn't foresee a need for one in the near future.

  • Decide What type of legal business organization you'd like. Costs of registering a sole proprietorship, partnership or incorporation ($50-$1,000). Typically you don't need an Attorney to Set up your business, though it will streamline the process and increase the cost.

    I'd compare setting up your business to doing your taxes.

    Most people can do their taxes themselves, fill out the tedious forms and pull their hair out. Or you can pay an accountant to do them who will be happy to send you a large bill for his services.

    When I first talked to my Attorney about Incorporating, he quoted me $995 to have his office take care of it for me.

    When I called the Department of Taxation & Revenue in New Jersey, they told me it would cost $125 in filing fees and $25 for the name search. . . . . . . so by filling out the forms myself, I saved close to $800.

    Should You Incorporate Your Registry Business? By Joseph Caracci, RN:"The short answer is yes! When starting a new nurse registry business, you are entering into a legal business environment that requires you to take steps to protect your personal assets, such as your home, your savings, and your retirement. With this in mind, you need to determine which legal form you are going to take for your new registry. Some of the common choices are a sole proprietorship, a partnership, a limited liability partnership (LLP), a limited liability company (LLC), and a corporation."

    ******************************************************

    It's mostly a matter of convenience, and whether you've got more time or money at this point.

    The basic types of business organizations you can consider are:

    • Sole Proprietorship (all income is reported under your social security number, and taxable as personable income). All liability in this case falls on your shoulders and creditors can go after your personal assets. A single award in a medical malpractice case (not to mention the legal bills) could devastate your business and financial assets. For a nursing agency, this is NOT recommended.

    • Partnership (same as Sole Proprietor, except there are two principal owners). Liability falls on both partners. Decision-making, Profits and Risk are shared between all partners.

    • Limited Liability Corporation. Allows for some protection of personal assets. Avoids Double Taxation inherent in a Corporation. Please note, with most small corporations, appropriate deductions can minimize your taxes and eliminate the Double Taxation Issue. For this reason, and also be cause Corporations are well defined by the IRS in terms of what deductions, benefits you can offer on a tax deductible basis, my recommendation is that you form a Full Corporation (C or S election is another issue).

      MyCorporation.com®, the Internet's leading provider of Incorporation, LLC Formation, and Trademark Search Services, has helped tens of thousands of companies across the U.S. get their start. Founded in 1998 by attorney husband and wife team Philip and Nellie Akalp, MyCorporation.com was one of the first companies to offer affordable, online Incorporation packages targeting small-to-mid sized businesses and entrepreneurs.

  • For Profit Corporation (C or S election). Best option for tax and liability purposes. A corporation is a separate entity with it's own Tax ID (Employer Identification #). In a malpractice award, only the assets of the corporation can be touched. Employees, Directors and Shareholders can take advantage of ample "Tax Deductible" fringe benefits (health insurance, expenses, etc) to minimize the corporate tax liability. This option is documentation intensive.

Founded in 1998 by attorney husband and wife team Philip and Nellie Akalp, MyCorporation.com was one of the first companies to offer affordable, online Incorporation packages targeting small-to-mid sized businesses and entrepreneurs.

  • Decide on Office Space, if you do a home office, costs are minimal you just need a set space and two available phone lines for the agency phone/fax. The best option here, is to form a corporation, and have the corporation lease space in your home or apartment, we can share the lease agreement (rental contract) we use with you. As part of our lease agreement, we've made Nursefriendly, Inc. responsible for bills we used to pay out of pocket.

      One point I'd like to make here is that there are a several household monthly bills your business could potentially pay and write off as tax deductible. To carry our house we pay $2000-4000/mo in basic bills. It is preferable to have the business pay bills in pretax dollars.

    • When I make a thousand dollars, I have about $700 to spend after taxes.
    • When Nursefriendly, Inc. makes a thousand dollars, no taxes are taken out initially, it can spend a $1000.
    • Nursefriendly Inc. only pays taxes on net profit.
    • If it has a large number of deductible expenses, which it pays in "pretax" dollars, it reduces the amount of taxes it will have to pay to the IRS.

        For Example:

    • If Nursefriendly Inc. makes $100,000 in a year (reported to it's employer identification#), and has $50,000 in deductible expenses, it only pays taxes on $50,000 at the end of the fiscal year.

    • If Andrew Lopez, RN makes $100,000 in a year (reported to his social security #), he pays taxes on the full $100,000 as checks are cut (meaning he actually has $70,000 to spend) and then hopes for a large refund at the end of the year.

  • See An Accountant: What you'll want to do is make up a list of the bills you pay monthly and sit down with an accountant. Tell the accountant that you'd like to start a business and would like to know what bills the business might be able to pay and take a tax deduction for.

    This becomes important when deciding to run a business as a Sole Proprietorship, LLC or Corporation. There are "deductions" that the IRS will question/scrutinize more heavily in a "home office" than it will in a "corporate lease."

      Some that can be paid for and deducted by your business include:

    • Association Fees (We live in a townhouse)
    • Cellular Telephones (As an agency and Internet Business, we keep in constant contact).
    • Cleaning Service, we have a service come in once every two weeks to clean our bathrooms, dust, mop, vacuum, etc. (all the housework that would take us hours to do).
    • Computer Leases (The nursefriendly leases two of its computers for $200/mo)
    • Electric ($100-300/mo)
    • Gas ($50-150/mo)
    • Health Insurance Premiums, Co-payments (When we have switched employers, we've paid $500 to $1,000/mo to maintain COBRA). Nursefriendly, Inc. covers specific medical costs for it's employees through a Medical Reimbursement Program which is fully tax deductible to the corporation.
    • Internet Access (We pay $88/mo for Comcast Cable Internet including our basic cable TV service)
    • Long Distance Service (if separate)
    • Telephones. It's expected a business will have both a voice and a fax line. ($50/mo basic service).
    • Water/Sewer ($150 per quarter).

      Some bills that your business probably cannot deduct are:

    • Automotive Maintenance & Repairs
    • Car Insurance
    • Gasoline
    • Groceries
    • Life Insurance
    • Mortage Payments

  • Set up a budget for Office Equipment, A Computer, Fax, Copier, Computer Software, as you find you need them.

  • Decide on How To Process Your Payroll (Nursefriendly, Inc. pays $45 per pay (for its first employee) through ADP Payroll services), plus payroll taxes. I've used ADP for several years. With them I can manage my payroll with a single phone call each payroll. I tell them how much to pay each employee, they cut the checks, handle deductions, taxes, deposits & tax payments. Once a quarter, they send me reports to forward to my accountant for tax purposes. For detailed information, please contact:

    Jennifer DeProspo, District Manager
    856-437-3056
    jennifer_m_deprospo@adp.com

    Or your can do it yourself with a program such as Quickbooks Pro. $10.95/mo basic service.

      Please note: If I pay a nurse $1000, their take home pay is round $666 (married), the government takes $334 out in taxes.

    The government also takes a matching $334 from Nursefriendly, Inc. as their employer.

    Total cost of paying an employee $1000 is $1334 to the business. Plus payroll costs. This is a cost you'll need to factor in when deciding how much to charge your facilities.

    You can have your nurses work as independent contractors to simplify this. That makes them responsible for paying their own taxes. Some nurses may not be comfortable with this as they can end up with a very large tax bill (as can you) at the end of the year.

    Sole Proprietorships, Business Entities, Business Basics-NursingEntrepreneurs.com

    Business Entities, Sole Proprietorship, Ad-Free.net:"A sole proprietorship is a business owned and operated by an individual, and can only have one owner. Starting a sole proprietorship is quick, fairly uncomplicated and relatively inexpensive. You do not need file documents with the state to form your business, as you do with corporations and Limited Liability Companies. If you plan to conduct businesses under a trade name, rather than your individual name (i.e. Field’s Landscaping rather than John Field) you will need to file a DBA (Doing Business As) with a local or state office. There may be additional licenses required by the state and city where you will operate your business (sales tax licenses, liquor licenses, etc). These requirements vary by state. Another thing to consider is that legally, with a sole proprietorship, the owner and the business are the same. The owner is personally responsible for the debts of the company."

    Tax Aspects of Sole Proprietorships, CCH Incorporated:"A sole proprietorship can be defined as any unincorporated business with a single owner. It's the most commonly used form for new small businesses. If your business has only one owner, the IRS will presume that it's a sole proprietorship unless you incorporate under state law. From the IRS's perspective, the business is not a taxable entity. Instead, all of the business's assets and liabilities are treated as belonging directly to the business owner. When tax time rolls around, all income and expenses generated by the business are reflected on either Schedule C, Profit or Loss from Business, or Schedule C-EZ, Net Profit from Business. Whichever of these forms you use, it must be included as part of your annual individual tax return (Form 1040)."

If you intend to work alone, this may be the way to go. The tax aspects of a sole proprietorship are especially appealing because income and expenses from the business are included on your personal income tax return, Form 1040. Your profits and losses are first recorded on a tax form called Schedule C, which is filed along with your 1040. Then the "bottom-line amount" from Schedule C is transferred to your personal tax return. This aspect is especially attractive."

    Sole Proprietorship, Business Center, Iowa Secretary of State:"The prevalent characteristic of a sole proprietorship is that the owner is inseparable from the business. Because they are the same entity, the owner of a sole proprietorship has complete control over the business, its operations, and is financially and legally responsible for all debts and legal actions against the business. Another aspect of the "same entity" aspect is that taxes on a sole proprietorship are determined at the personal income tax rate of the owner. In other words, a sole proprietorship does not pay taxes separately from the owner."

    Sole Proprietorship, Mycorporation.com:"In General: This is the simplest form of business. A sole proprietorship is not a separate entity itself. Rather, a sole proprietor directly owns the business and is directly responsible for its debts. Unlimited Personal Liability for Loss: In a sole proprietorship, the owner is personally liable for the company, thus placing his or her entire personal assets and wealth at risk. If an owner is married, that owner puts the community property at risk as well. Management and Control: The owner (sole proprietor) has total management and control over the company. However, the price for total management and control is that the owner is at risk for personal liability incurred through the acts of the owner’s agents or employees."

    Setting Up Your Own Business: The Sole Proprietorship, Idaho Small Business Development Centers:"Limitations of sole proprietorship: The sole proprietorship has a number of limitations. Many result from the lack of a separate business entity. Even though there are many financial management and tax reasons not to do so, mingling of business and household finances and operating with a resource base that's primarily the family's net worth occurs in many sole proprietorships. The resulting limitations include: everything the proprietor and family own is at risk in both personal and business activities unless nonbusiness assets are protected in a trust or other isolating mechanism; the resource base of the business unit may be so limited that credit availability and capacity to respond to business opportunities is moderately to severely restricted; the business ends with the death of the proprietor and, if business activity is to continue, a new business must be established by the survivors; unless succession is carefully planned, each generation must purchase or inherit the business assets paying any applicable taxes and costs; mixing business and household finances can make it difficult to measure business financial performance and profitability, and may lead to loss of equity that is not recognized until the business is in serious financial difficulty; conflicts or disagreements within the family can immobilize the business unit and prevent needed decision making."

      Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."

ACCION sees business credit as a resource that can help narrow the income gap and provide economic opportunity, thereby stabilizing and strengthening communities and economies.

      Should You Incorporate Your Registry Business? By Joseph Caracci, RN:"The short answer is yes! When starting a new nurse registry business, you are entering into a legal business environment that requires you to take steps to protect your personal assets, such as your home, your savings, and your retirement. With this in mind, you need to determine which legal form you are going to take for your new registry. Some of the common choices are a sole proprietorship, a partnership, a limited liability partnership (LLP), a limited liability company (LLC), and a corporation."

        Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."
