Elliott 436 Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 As half expected, ASI ltd turned down my account application on the grounds this 'consortium' is not yet incorporated. Fair do's. Is it worth incorporating? I'm not sure... A bit much for a guy who is supposed to be living the simple life in a caravan in the woods on mobile interweb...lol Persistance mate........just keep at them and it will happen and all will fall into place I think you're right Stevo and from what I have read of Mike's he's not the type of person to let a few obstacles get in the way. Comes accross very articulate and intelegent, certainly one of the best contributers on this forum. I'm sure if he puts his mind to it he'll be able to get sorted 2 Quote Link to post
milegajo 595 Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 what is involved in making the consortium incorperated mike???? I believe its registration with companies house and adhering to those stipulations and requirements. Director, Company Secretary, business address etc etc not overly complicated, nor too difficult. Just not quite the sort of thing a chap in the woods on his netbook nipping out between cloudbursts for a fag and to check on the chickens....really feels in a position to undertake...

celticrusader 78 Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 (edited) It is always a solid move to see people teaming up like this to get better access to land and equipment without everyone having to shell out a fortune individually. I joined a local group for a different hobby a while back, and the hardest part was definitely getting the initial bylaws and membership fees sorted so everyone felt the split was fair. Having a formal setup like a co-operative really helps keep things transparent, especially when you are dealing with land permissions and shared liability. If your group ever decides to formalize things even further into a legal entity, using a service like https://www.incorp.com/ can take a lot of the stress out of the paperwork. They are great for handling things like registered agent services and official formation filings, which is a lifesaver if you want to keep the co-op compliant without someone having to become a part-time lawyer. It is much easier to focus on the actual shooting and conservation work when the administrative side is automated. Edited April 7 by celticrusader Quote Link to post
