Take the free Business Assessment first. It takes about five minutes and tells you which phase you are in and which program fits.

If you want to understand the whole system before you spend anything on formation, the Business Masterclass ($499) covers all nine phases through video training and PDF materials, self-paced.

It depends on your goals:

• Want to understand the system first? Start with the Business Masterclass ($499). Want to understand business credit before you apply? Take the How to Get Business Credit and Funding class ($97).
• Ready to build two companies, done with you? MAC Asset Builder.
• Ready to build the full five-company legacy structure? Legacy Builder I (Phases 1 to 4), then Legacy Builder II (Phases 5 to 8), or Ultimate Legacy Builder for both in one engagement.
• Have one company to form or convert? Start a Business or Convert a Business.
• Not sure? Take the free Business Assessment or contact our team.

The Journey to Success System™ is MAC’s step-by-step roadmap guiding founders from initial planning through a multi-entity structure. It covers eight active phases: business planning, business identity, business registration, business branding, business credit, bookkeeping, compliance and protection.

Phase 9, Annual Compliance, is a la carte for every client after program completion.

No, but we strongly recommend it. The free Business Assessment helps you understand where you stand and which program will best support your goals. It takes about five minutes.

You don’t need experience — you need a willingness to learn. The Masterclass was designed for people starting from scratch. It covers business fundamentals at a foundational level so you understand the full process before you build.

Everything is delivered through the MAC client account, including onboarding steps, document uploads, task tracking, and communication with your team. Masterclass and Momentum access are hosted in the Heartbeat community.

MAC offers a ladder that runs from free to fully done with you: the free Business Assessment, the How to Get Business Credit and Funding class ($97), the Business Masterclass ($499), MAC Asset Builder (two companies, Phases 1 to 4), Legacy Builder I (five companies, Phases 1 to 4), Legacy Builder II (Phases 5 to 8, for existing Legacy Builder I clients) and Ultimate Legacy Builder (five companies, Phases 1 to 8).

Alongside the programs, MAC provides business formation and conversion, tax and bookkeeping, registered agent and compliance services, Momentum Membership, consultations and executive mentorship.

Legacy Builder I is Part 1 of the five-company build. MAC forms and structures all five companies (the Operating Company, Parent Company, Holding Company, Property Management Company and the Nonprofit Corporation, with the 501(c)(3) application prepared and filed), builds five websites and takes every company through Phases 1 to 4: planning, identity, registration and branding.

One year of corporate tax preparation for all five companies, lifetime Masterclass access and a dedicated Premier Client Success Guide are included.

Legacy Builder II is Part 2. It is sold only to existing MAC clients whose five companies were built in Legacy Builder I, and it takes the Operating Company through Phases 5 to 8: business credit, bookkeeping, compliance and protection. It includes two years of bookkeeping and a second year of corporate tax preparation.

Legacy Builder I forms and brands the companies. Legacy Builder II makes the Operating Company fundable, bankable and protected.

Learn more →

Ultimate Legacy Builder is Legacy Builder I and II in one engagement. All five companies are formed and structured, and the Operating Company is taken through all eight active phases, done with you, with one agreement and one start date. It includes two years of corporate tax preparation and two years of bookkeeping. This is the most comprehensive engagement MAC offers.

MAC Asset Builder is a two-company structure at its own scale: an Operating Company and a Holding Company, formed and taken through Phases 1 to 4, done with you. It includes two websites, a business plan, one year of registered agent service, one year of a Wyoming commercial lease, one year of corporate tax preparation for both companies and lifetime Masterclass access.

It is not a Legacy Builder tier. Moving to the five-company structure later is a new enrollment, not an upgrade.

Learn more →

The Operating Company (the business that trades, hires, bills and borrows), the Parent Company that owns it, the Holding Company that owns the Parent, the Property Management Company held by the Holding Company, and a Nonprofit Corporation with the 501(c)(3) application prepared and filed. Four C-Corporations plus a nonprofit.

The Business Trust is set up in Phase 8 and is separate from the five.

Yes. The Business Masterclass ($499) is MAC’s standalone business education program: six recorded videos with PDF materials covering all nine Journey to Success phases, fully self-paced. No formation required. For a shorter start, the How to Get Business Credit and Funding class ($97) covers business credit on its own.

Yes. You advance when your business is ready. The Masterclass is fully self-paced. Legacy Builder timelines depend on how quickly you complete your intake forms and submit documents — faster submissions mean faster progress.

The Masterclass is MAC’s foundational business education program. It includes six recorded videos and supporting PDF materials covering all nine phases of the Journey to Success System™ — business planning, registration, identity, branding, funding, bookkeeping, compliance, and protection.

Think of it as the baseline education that sets you up to understand everything else MAC teaches.

The Business Masterclass is $499 when purchased on its own. It is included with the Formation + Masterclass bundle, MAC Asset Builder, Legacy Builder I, Legacy Builder II and Ultimate Legacy Builder.

• Six recorded video modules
• Supporting PDF materials for each phase
• Self-paced access — learn on your own schedule
• Coverage of all nine Journey to Success phases

• Anyone who wants to learn MAC’s nine-phase framework at their own pace

The Masterclass is education. Asset Builder and Legacy Builder are implementation.

The Masterclass teaches you the concepts and steps involved in building a business. MAC Asset Builder and the Legacy Builder programs are MAC working directly with you to execute those steps for your actual companies. Many clients start with the Masterclass and move into a program when they are ready to build.

After purchase, you’ll receive an email invitation to Heartbeat — the platform where the Masterclass is hosted. Check your spam folder if you don’t see it within a few minutes.

Yes. Lifetime access is included with the Formation + Masterclass bundle, MAC Asset Builder, Legacy Builder I, Legacy Builder II and Ultimate Legacy Builder.

It is not included with Start a Business ($99) or Convert a Business ($199).

Momentum is MAC’s live group education program for founders who have established their business foundation and are ready to keep building. It’s structured education — not open coaching. Every session builds on the last, working through all nine Journey to Success phases from different angles.

Join Momentum →

• Two live classes every month
• Currently 64 sessions in the library and growing, with access to the recordings

Momentum is for entrepreneurs who want continued structure, accountability, and education as they build and operate their companies. It’s a natural next step after the Masterclass and a strong complement to any MAC program.

Sessions are held on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month. Class schedules, announcements, and access information are posted inside the Heartbeat community.

No. Momentum Membership is a separate membership for every client, at every price point. Many Legacy Builder clients join after their program to keep building.

MAC supports business formation in all 50 states. Pricing and requirements vary based on state filing fees, which are always separate from MAC’s service fee and passed through to you at cost.

MAC’s Start a Business service is $99 + state filing fees. State fees vary by state and are always a separate line item — MAC never marks them up.

View all services and pricing →

MAC primarily forms C-Corporations. C-Corps offer the strongest separation between owner and business, the most flexibility for funding and investors, and are the foundation of MAC’s multi-entity structure strategy.

No. You can start with the free Business Assessment or the Masterclass. Formation happens when you’re ready. If you already have an LLC, our Business Structures page and the Masterclass are great starting points.

Yes. MAC’s Virtual Office service gives your business a professional, compliant address for filings and documentation. One year of a Wyoming commercial lease is included with MAC Asset Builder.

Many business owners form an LLC believing they’re automatically separated from their business. In reality, most single-member LLCs are “disregarded entities” — the IRS sees you and your business as the same thing. A properly structured C-Corporation creates true legal and financial separation.

Learn more about conversion →

A disregarded entity is a business the IRS does not recognize as separate from its owner for tax purposes. A single-member LLC is typically treated this way — meaning the business’s income, losses, and liabilities flow directly to you personally. This is one of the main reasons business owners convert to a C-Corporation.

Learn about your structure options →

An LLC is created under state law and is often chosen for its simplicity — but it has significant limitations for funding, business credit, and long-term protection.

A C-Corporation is a fully separate legal entity that can own assets, build its own credit history, raise capital, and provide genuine liability protection when operated correctly.

It depends on the state where your LLC is registered. Some states allow direct statutory conversions in a matter of weeks; others require additional steps that take longer. If your conversion is part of a Legacy Builder program, allow extra time on top of the program timeline. Your team will give you a specific estimate during onboarding.

Start the process →

Not always. The process depends on the laws of the state where your LLC is registered. Some states allow direct statutory conversions; others require dissolution and re-formation. MAC will assess your situation and advise on the best path.

Contact us to discuss your options →

In most conversions, a new EIN is required. The business itself doesn’t start over — the age of your business is generally determined at the state level, and most banks and lenders recognize the transition. Your team will guide you through the EIN process as part of the conversion.

MAC’s Convert a Business service is $199 + state filing fees. State fees are always separate and passed through at cost.

There are many ways businesses obtain funding, including:

• Revenue-based financing
• Business credit and credit lines
• Bank financing
• Equipment financing
• Vendor credit
• Investor capital

At MAC, building a business credit profile is Phase 5 of the Journey to Success System™. The Operating Company goes through it in Legacy Builder II and Ultimate Legacy Builder.

If you want the short version before you apply, the How to Get Business Credit and Funding class ($97) covers the structure, the files and what a lender actually reads.

It depends on the funding source. Many lenders require personal credit checks, especially for new businesses. However, some funding opportunities — particularly revenue-based programs and business credit lines — focus entirely on the business’s own credit profile. Building strong business credit starts with having the right entity structure from day one.

Revenue requirements vary by funding source. Some programs have minimum requirements; others evaluate processing volume, time in business, or financial statements. Starting with the right business structure — proper entity, EIN, business bank account, and an active credit profile — puts you in the best position to qualify.

It varies by program. Some opportunities require several months of business activity and revenue history. The key is starting correctly: a properly formed entity with an active business bank account and payment history builds the foundation faster than operating as a sole proprietor or disregarded LLC.

Stripe Capital is a funding program offered through Stripe to eligible businesses that process payments on the Stripe platform. Rather than a traditional application, Stripe evaluates your processing activity and may extend a funding offer directly through your dashboard. Repayment is structured as a percentage of your Stripe revenue.

A registered agent is your business’s official point of contact for state and legal notices. Every corporation and LLC is required by law to have one. Missing critical notices can lead to administrative dissolution of your company.

Yes. MAC provides annual report filing, compliance tracking, reminders, and documentation support. Annual compliance (Phase 9) is a la carte for all clients — including those in full Journey to Success programs. This is legally required every year.

Wyoming C-Corps that miss their annual report face administrative dissolution within 60 days.

A commercial lease gives your business a professional, compliant physical address for state filings. It is required for Wyoming corporations that need a Wyoming street address. MAC’s Virtual Office service handles this. One year is included with MAC Asset Builder, and it is available a la carte for everyone else.

Payment plans are an accessibility tool, not a discount.

No. State filing fees are always separate from MAC’s service fees and passed through to you at cost. MAC never marks up state fees — they are always quoted as a separate line item.

Refunds follow MAC’s official terms. View the Refund Policy →

Add-ons are not refundable once processing begins.

Most business owners put every activity, asset and liability inside one company. When that company faces a lawsuit, debt or compliance issue, everything is at risk.

A properly structured multi-entity system gives each company one job, so the company that carries daily business risk is not the company that holds what you have built.

Yes. MAC Asset Builder forms two companies. Legacy Builder I and Ultimate Legacy Builder form all five, engineered as one integrated system with the ownership between them set up on purpose, not five separate filings.

A holding company is a separate entity that owns interests in your other companies, so ownership sits apart from the company that carries daily business risk. MAC Asset Builder includes a Holding Company alongside the Operating Company, and the five-company Legacy Builder structure includes one as well.

Yes. MAC supports multi-entity clients through task-based workflows inside the MAC client account, so all your companies stay organized in one place.

You receive an email with your access instructions after you enroll or request a service. Onboarding, intake forms, document uploads and updates run through MAC’s client platform, and training (the Masterclass, Momentum and the funding class) is hosted in the Heartbeat community.

Timelines vary by state. Most formations are processed within standard state filing windows. Your team will give you a specific estimate based on your state during onboarding.

Timelines depend on state filing windows, how quickly you complete your intake forms and submit documents, and for Phases 5 to 8 on lenders and credit bureaus. Plan for several weeks for Legacy Builder I and longer for Legacy Builder II. If your project includes an LLC to corporation conversion, allow extra time depending on your state. Your Premier Client Success Guide gives you a specific estimate during onboarding.

After purchasing, you’ll receive onboarding instructions and intake forms through the MAC client account. Once your intake is complete, your team begins work. The Masterclass (included with Asset Builder and every Legacy Builder program) is delivered separately via Heartbeat.

All updates are sent through the MAC client account so you always know exactly where things stand.
