Why shouldn’t I just do it myself?

You could, but as a self employed individual your time is your most valuable asset. Our goal is to help you to maximize revenues, maximize profits and protect your assets. Our education encompasses the best of books, articles, web information and experience. The information is compressed into easy to understand segments that don’t waste your time. Our solutions allow you to jump-start your business set-up, navigate quickly through each step, and save on professional fees.

Our membership and solutions are more than fairly priced. As an example, our Business Structure package includes a personalized Business Plan, templates to incorporate your business, instructions on organizing in your state, IRS instructions, and templates to use as your Consulting Contract and Non-Disclosure Agreement. Using an attorney, accountant and writing a plan could be a $2,000 to $3,000 investment – our cost is just $20 per month for 12 months and about two hours of your time.

"I know I should do things differently in my business, but...." - What has stopped you from acting?

We most commonly hear the following:

• "I don’t know what to do" – We can help! Our information will help you become educated in the key issues so you can make solid decisions.
• "I don’t have the time" – We can help! We provide all you need with simple to execute instructions and a minimum of time required.
• "I can’t afford it" – We can help! Our goal is to save you much more in taxes than you will spend on services. Our Solutions are well priced and we even allow payments over time.

What is your expertise?

Our Management group has about 100 years of self-employed experience. We cover virtually every discipline including IT technical expertise, operations, marketing and sales, accounting and administration. We have served in virtually all management capacities in companies ranging from multi-billion dollar companies to a number of pure start-ups.

Why did you start USA Self Employed?

Having started a number of companies and having significant consulting experience we realized we knew a great deal about being self-employed. From experience, we know many people that have become self-employed through market circumstances - layoffs, re-structuring or employer actions to convert employees to Independent Contractors.

Often, self employed business owners are very experienced in doing their job but know little about running a business. Even worse, they don’t view themselves as being a business. There are approximately 15 million self employed in the United States, but many are not well organized, are inadequately protected and are not availing themselves of the tax and retirement advantages of being self employed. We believe we can help.
