Your Way Around Conflict of Interest

I run into more and more people who can’t pursue their dreams on the side because of a job that doesn’t allow it.

One way around it — incorporation.

You’re setting up a new entity.

A new taxable entity… that is not… you.

It’s run by a board and has no employees… until it employs someone. But it doesn’t have to be you… yet. Or ever.

Couple hundred bucks on Legal Zoom.

I started Historytellers Productions as a non-profit corporation in 1998 while in seminary. It sat dormant for 10 years through conflict after conflict of interest. I just kept filing the annual report every year until…

I had been a pastor for 10 years…

Had launched my first conference…

Had worked at Catalyst…

And birthed the vision for STORY…

And Dream Year…

And One Thousand Premieres…

But it was always a separate entity, apart from me… waiting for just the right moment to be acted upon.

Don’t let you be the reason your dream doesn’t come to life.

No more excuses.
