SUMMARY:BOIR Lab
DESCRIPTION:BOIR Requirement is Back On. \nOn February 18\, 2025\, the U.S. District Court reinstated the Beneficial Ownership Information Report (BOIR) requirement\, lifting all temporary holds on filing deadlines. \n  \nIn response to this\, FinCEN has extended the deadline by 30 calendar days from February 19\, 2025.  For most companies\, this means the new deadline to file an initial\, updated\, and/or corrected BOIR is March 21\, 2025.  While FinCEN has indicated that there may be further updates to this deadline\, especially for small businesses\, we strongly recommend preparing to file by the March deadline.   \nIf you have not filed yet – or don’t even know where to start – join us for our next BOIR Lab. This no-cost\, one-hour interactive workshop will guide you step-by-step through the BOIR filing process. Led by experienced attorneys\, this live session will cover everything you need to know\, including: \n  \n\nWhy this law exists and how it affects your business;\nYour ongoing compliance obligations; and\nCommon mistakes to avoid.\n\n  \nDon’t wait! Register today and ensure your business is fully compliant. \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:Learn more about the deadline to file: Beneficial Ownership Information Report (BOIR)
DESCRIPTION:As a business owner in the United States\, you may be required to report what is called Beneficial Ownership Information (“BOI”) about your business to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FINCEN). This is due to Congress passing a law in 2021 called the “Corporate Transparency Act\,” in an effort to make it harder for bad actors to hide their ill-gotten gains through shell companies or other questionable ownership structures. \nTo better understand “BOI” and whether or not you should be reporting Beneficial Ownership Information\, please join us for a free workshop taught by experienced attorneys to learn: \n\nThe rationale and importance of the legislation\nWho must file\nInformation to be filed\nTimeframes for filing (when should you file?)\nWalkthrough (Step by step explanation of how to file online)\nPenalties for failure to file in a timely manner\n\nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:Webinar - Finance: How is Your Company Doing\, Financially?
DESCRIPTION:Presented in this workshop are several essential Performance Measurements used to monitor sales\, overhead and profitability. They apply to any business\, independent of size and scope. \nPerformance Measurements are used to answer specific business questions. Financial managers and company owners want to keep overhead and sales aligned properly and monitor overall company profitability. Sales managers want to know which customers / products / services are profitable. Those who manage operations want to monitor changes in production cost. \nCompany owners typically measure sales volumes\, as most managers understand the importance of monitoring revenue. However\, measuring sales numbers is not enough. Other business decisions\, such as decreasing profit margins or increasing cost\, can cause cash flow problems. Neither of which can be detected by simply monitoring sales volumes. For this reason\, it is important to have Performance Measurements that also follow profitability trends. \n\nIs my company profitable?\nWhat rends are occurring that we should be aware of?\nWhat will the numbers look like at the end of the year?\nAre we properly managing our overhead?\nShould we be making some changes now?\n\nRegister Now \n
