Why Small Businesses Miss Required Filings (And it’s not negligence)

Most missed filings don’t happen because business owners are careless

They happen because:

  • No one explains ongoing requirements clearly

  • Filing schedules vary by state

  • Responsibilities are split across multiple agencies

  • Owners assume someone else is handling it

Platforms simplify formation but often stop there. Advisors handle their assigned scope. The gap is rarely intentional - it’s structural.

The solution isn’t blame. It’s clarity!

When business owners understand what applies to them, compliance becomes manageable instead of overwhelming.
