Shell / Skeleton Orgs:
Even with just non-profits, for-profits, and political committees, many people get overwhelmed with the different choices for legal entities, let alone the dozens of other types of organizations. People can get confused, and overwhelmed simply deciding what type of legal entity to become. We believe it is ok to take the time to educate yourself, and make the correct choice (or choices), but when it comes to taking action and ensuring that your project or company is moving forward and going to happen, we always feel that if you are holding back and waiting based on a simple decision like the type of legal entity, then it is an unnecessary waste, as you can always simply change your entity type with a simple decision of your organization.
The simple solutions to get started if you don’t know which one is to start a sponsored shell or skeleton legal entity. The framework is very simple. Regardless of weather you know what legal form you want to take, or even if you have a name, you can still get sponsorship based on the simple concept of creating a legal entity that has the ability to make decisions. The decision making of the entity is the most important component, as the decision making body can choose which legal entity it wants to become, as well as change legal entity types. Also a legal entity can choose to change its name as well. So the entity itself, and its decision making structure, is the only true central core to any organization, and from there everything else can change overtime. There is no reason not to get started right away.
