Doing iBusiness with MyCorp’s Very Own App!

Happy New Year everyone!

As everyone recovers and begins to remember those resolutions they listed before they went out to celebrate New Year’s Eve, we thought it would be a good idea to help you all with something we’re sure is on a few lists; starting your small business.

Most people tend to put this particular resolution off, seeing it as a daunting behemoth of a task. Sure, you could go online and trudge through all of the research that goes in to starting a business and incorporating, but you’re stuck on that one level of Angry Birds and getting past that seems like it would be a lot more enjoyable.

But Angry Birds, while fun, isn’t quite as life changing or rewarding as founding your own company. So to help out those of you who have been putting off incorporation, we have distilled all of the information you need into an iPod/iPad application!

And it isn’t just for incorporations; you can conduct a trademark search, get information on copyright registrations and name checks, and easily access much of the information hosting on the MyCorporation website.

Our App team has made starting a business (nearly) as easy as rocketing a red bird into a pyramid of green pigs.

Best of all, our app is entirely free.

Head to the iTunes app store, download our application, and get started!

*Only available for download on the iPhone and iPad. We’re working on an Android version for later this year- stay tuned!
