THINKING ABOUT FORMING A NON PROFIT ORGANIZATION?

Inspiration and Information for Starting Your Business Posted on January 26th, 2012 by Joey Donovan Guido. Thinking about forming a nonprofit company? You probably already know that they’re specifically formed for purposes other than operating a profit-seeking business. But you might not be aware of all the benefits associated with being a nonprofit organization. To follow are the top advantages of forming a nonprofit company. We hope they help you gain a clearer picture of what these types of business formations have to offer … Top Seven Benefits of Forming a Nonprofit Company Limited liability protection. Protects directors, officers and members against being held personally responsible for their company’s debts and liabilities. With limited liability protection, creditors cannot pursue the personal assets of the business owner to pay off business debts. Tax-exempt status. Nonprofits can apply for both federal and state tax-exempt status. Access to grants. Some nonprofits are eligible to receive public and private grants, making it easier to get operating capital. For instance, certain grants and other public allocations are only available to 501(c)(3) organizations. Tax-deductible donations. With 501(c)(3) nonprofits, donations made by individuals to the nonprofit corporation are tax-deductible. Possible state sales and property taxes exemption. This benefit varies by state. US Postal Service discounts. Tax-exempt nonprofits generally can receive discounts on bulk mail rates. Credibility. There is established credibility for an organization that is recognized by the IRS as a tax-exempt nonprofit.

Is "Black Friday" Really A Day For Deals, Or Sleep Deprivation?

I've checked out the ads posted so far for the "Black Friday" deals that most of the major stores are offering. Sorry, but I really don't see anything surprising or any significant deals that will get me out of bed at midnight with enough time to stand in line at JC Penny by 3:00am. Especially when it comes to high tech items. Couple of bucks here, and a couple of bucks there, isn't worth it. For example, at Best Buy Electronics, they have a ASUS 15-inch touchscreen laptop with Windows 8 and 32GB memory for $249. I guess, for the brand, this could be just okay. But, the point is, I've seen these deals all the time. You can get the same deal at Big Lots all year round. I've also seen other great electronics deals at eBay, Amazon.com, and other smaller electronic "brick and mortar" stores. I guess the Kindle Fire that's listed for $99 might sound like a "good deal". But how many of the Kindle Fire's will be in stock? Example: About 6 years ago when portable DVD players were popular (remember those days before the popularity of Netflix, iTunes, Youtube, and Hulu) I went to Best Buy Electronics very early the Friday after Thanksgiving in order to snare a Sony brand portable DVD player that was listed at the "Black Friday" price which was $25. Well, these "players" were normally listed at $149. Seems like a good price, right? I mean, this was a really, really, good price! I busted into the doors of Best Buy with all the other people, ran to the DVD department and was told by the sales clerk that they have been sold out! What!!! "You guys just opened!!" The sales clerk went on to explain to me that they only had 10 of them in stock, and they probably were already snatched up and purchased by employees stocking shelves the day before. But he went on to tell me that I might be interested in these DVD players over here...which by the way, were at a significantly higher price. I guess, anything to get you into the store, right? The old "bate and switch". Also, I had seen an ad for a $159 Garmin GPS system for my car at Sears. The item was on sale for $49.99. Before I went home that morning, I decided to stop into Sears and try my luck. I did see the Garmin! I snatched it off the rack, but boy, oh boy, when I saw that line to the cashiers, I promptly put the Garmin back. That line must have been at least 200 people thick.

I went home very discouraged (and sleepy). I decided (after having another piece of pumpkin pie)to get on my computer that afternoon and visit the Sears website and joy of all joys there was the Garmin listed online at Sears.com for the same $49.99 sales price. They even had free shipping! And, yes, I was willing to wait the extra 2-3 days to receive the item. That was my last "Black Friday" that I got up early for. After that, every Friday after Thanksgiving, I look for all deals online (I didn't even have to wait for "Cyber Monday"). And the good thing about that is that I can do it in my pajamas.

I've been invited several times by good friends and relatives to attend "Black Fridays" with them. "Not on your life" I tell them. They quickly inform me that it's not the shopping that's important, but its the tradition of getting up early, driving to the mall in the cold, and "hunting" for good deals. It's all in the "hunt". I still say "No thank you". It could be "old age" (even though I'm not really old), but to me this is torture.

Through the years, many stores have been opening earlier, and earlier for "Black Friday". Many had began to open there doors by 8:00pm on Thanksgiving night. Now, there are a stores that have now announced that that will be opening all day on Thanksgiving starting at 8:00am!! Oh, those poor employees. How will they spend Thanksgiving with their families? I say we all stand by those employees and send a message to the greedy store execs...Let's all shop online this year!
