InCorp: Simplifying Business Formation and State Filings for Entrepreneurs

The Hidden Hurdles of Business Ownership, And How InCorp Supports Entrepreneurs

Starting a business comes with a lot of excitement—but also a lot of paperwork. Beyond the initial formation documents, every LLC and corporation has ongoing state requirements to manage: annual reports, registered agent designations, and various filings that need to be submitted on time. For many entrepreneurs, keeping track of it all becomes a challenge.

Davey Deluge, COO of InCorp, has seen these challenges play out over more than two decades in the industry. "Business owners want to focus on running their business, not chasing down filing deadlines," he says. "That's the problem we set out to solve."

Today, InCorp supports over 250,000 businesses across the United States and beyond, providing a straightforward, powerful solution for navigating the administrative requirements of business ownership. The company's approach goes beyond just handling state filings—it equips entrepreneurs with the tools needed to stay organized and keep their entities in good standing.

The Birth of InCorp: A Vision to Simplify Business Administration

InCorp was founded with a mission to make business ownership more accessible by addressing the common hurdles entrepreneurs face. Starting a business is challenging enough without having to manage complex and ever-evolving state and federal filing requirements.

When InCorp launched over 25 years ago, many entrepreneurs were struggling to keep up with their filings, missing deadlines and facing penalties. In response, InCorp created its core services—entity formation, registered agent representation, and managed annual reports—to help entrepreneurs stay on top of their state requirements. This allowed clients to focus on running their businesses while InCorp took care of the paperwork.

The company quickly gained a reputation for offering high-quality services and user-friendly systems that helped business owners track deadlines without getting bogged down in red tape.

InCorp's Evolution: Overcoming Challenges to Meet Business Needs

InCorp's growth didn't come without challenges. As the demands of running a business entity became more complex and entrepreneurship became more diverse, InCorp had to continuously adapt. One of their major challenges was building a platform that could serve businesses of all sizes, from single-member LLCs to large corporations managing multiple state registrations.

"We saw a need for something beyond just a filing service. Entrepreneurs wanted a centralized place to manage their businesses, track deadlines, store documents, and stay current with state requirements," says Davey Deluge.

As business owners expanded operations into new states, the need for a better solution became clear. Tracking filings across multiple jurisdictions—each with different deadlines and requirements—was too much to manage manually. That's what led to the development of EntityWatch®.

InCorp's EntityWatch®: All Your Filings in One Place

InCorp’s Entity Management System with EntityWatch® is an online platform designed to give business owners a single place to track all their filings across every state where they're registered. Today, InCorp offers services that support businesses in all 50 states, as well as Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Instead of juggling spreadsheets or checking multiple state websites, business owners can log in and see exactly what's due and when—whether they have one entity or dozens spread across the country. EntityWatch® sends alerts before deadlines approach, reducing the risk of missed filings and penalties.

"We understand that business owners are juggling many responsibilities," says Davey Deluge. "EntityWatch® gives them one dashboard to see everything, so nothing falls through the cracks."

What Sets InCorp Apart: Service and Support

One of the key differentiators of InCorp's services is its focus on understanding each client's needs. From the initial consultation, clients are guided through the formation process and helped to understand what ongoing filings their entity type will require.

"We're committed to being more than just a filing service," says Davey Deluge. "Our team works closely with clients to make sure they understand their requirements and have the tools to meet them."

The Growing Popularity of LLCs and Corporations

As more entrepreneurs launch businesses, choosing a legal structure has become an important early decision. While many begin as sole proprietors or partnerships, businesses often transition to more formal structures—such as LLCs and corporations—to separate personal and business assets and access different tax treatment options.

"Entrepreneurs are increasingly aware that the structure they choose affects their ongoing filing requirements and how they operate day-to-day," says Davey Deluge. "We help them understand what each entity type requires so they can make informed decisions.”

InCorp's experience in handling entity formations and ongoing filings has made it a valuable resource for business owners looking to formalize their business structure.
