Separate Business Bank Account
Why Do I Need A Separate Business Bank Account
You should always present to your clients and prospects a professional image. Therefore, having a separate bank account for your business is important. Let’s take a look at some additional reasons.
- The U.S. Internal Revenue Code requires all Corporations to have a separate bank account. Even though the IRS does not require Limited Liability Companies (LLC) to have one, it is a very good idea.
- The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is very insistent about you being able to show them that your business is a real business and not a hobby business. In order to show this, you should have a separate bank account for your business, business cards, well-kept accounting records, and an up to date Corporate Minute Book.
- You must keep your business and personal purchasing and spending separate to make it cleaner and easier for you and your tax preparer at the end of the year.
- You must to keep all your expenditure receipts and be able account for all your deposits.
Corporate or LLC Minute Book
Every business entity needs a Corporate Minute Book. It can be formal or informal. Even though you can use a binder from Walmart and make a book up yourself using the Minute Book Samples below, we suggest you buy one from CorpKits. It is much more professional.

Business Identity Theft
What Is Business Identity Theft?
Identity thieves don’t just target people – they prey on businesses, too. Their schemes vary widely, from the unimaginably complex to the absurdly simple. But in every case, their effects can be devastating to the business involved and its personnel.
Business identity theft is when criminals hijack a business’s name to plunder its assets, credit and/or reputation. The crime comes in a variety of forms, from scammers merely impersonating a business to fraudsters filing fraudulent paperwork to take over a company. However it’s done, the goal is always the same: To exploit the business for the criminal’s financial gain. That can mean purchasing luxury cars or dozens of cell phones on company credit and selling them for a quick profit. It can mean seizing company assets, like a piece of property stashed in a holding company, and transferring it to another business entity, where it’s sold to an unsuspecting third party. Or it can be masquerading as your business to exploit your good reputation and defrauding your current or potential customers. Click here for more information.
Lurking In The Shadows Report
Business identity theft is woefully under publicized in America today – even by major civic and private-sector institutions that are intimately aware of its seriousness.

Our findings show what Company Alarm has long suspected: that business identity theft is simply not a priority for leaders in government and business. Click here for the entire report.
