SIMPLIFY & PROTECT YOUR BUSINESS STRUCTURE — ALL-IN-ONE TAX & LEGAL SETUP

Whether you’re ready to incorporate, add a holding company, or establish a family trust, CloudSide Advisory makes it seamless. We combine CPA-level tax strategy with a senior tax lawyer (formerly partner at a top national firm) — one virtual team, one flat fee, zero confusion.

MOST BUSINESS OWNERS OUTGROW THEIR STRUCTURE WITHOUT REALIZING IT

As profits grow, your original setup can start costing you: higher taxes, personal liability, or missed estate-planning opportunities. A smart corporate structure protects your assets, minimizes tax, and sets up your family for the future.

TAX + LEGAL UNDER ONE ROOF

Most accountants send you to a lawyer. Most lawyers send you back to your accountant.


We’ve fixed that. CloudSide Advisory works directly with a senior tax lawyer who left a major Bay-Street-level firm to build a modern virtual practice. Together, we’ve streamlined every step — collecting information once, coordinating filings, and delivering complete legal and accounting setup in record time.


Key Highlights:

  • One Flat Fee – Accounting + Legal included


  • Senior Tax Law Expertise – formerly partner at a prestigious firm


  • Virtual & Efficient – no office overhead → competitive pricing


  • Streamlined 4-Step Process – faster, less paperwork

THREE PATHS tO a SMARTER CORPORATE STRUCTURE

 Each mini-section functions as its own micro-landing page below.

INCORPORATION

HOLDING COMPANY

FAMILY TRUST

 INCORPORATE YOUR BUSINESS — PROTECT YOUR ASSETS AND KEEP MORE OF WHAT YOU LEARN

The smartest move a growing sole proprietor can make — gain legal protection, unlock tax advantages, and look more credible overnight.

When you incorporate, your business becomes its own legal entity. That means your personal assets are protected if the business faces risk, and you can leave profits in the corporation to defer personal tax.


Our joint CPA + tax lawyer team sets everything up: incorporation, CRA accounts, GST/HST, payroll, minute book, and initial share structure.

You’ll also receive a personalized onboarding call with both the CPA and lawyer to understand how to pay yourself (salary vs. dividends), how to record expenses properly, and how to stay fully compliant from day one.


Key Benefits:

Protect personal assets – limited liability for business debts

Reduce taxes – defer and split income strategically

Boost credibility – appear established to lenders and clients

Build for growth – easy to add partners or investors later

ADD A HOLDING COMPANY — SHIELD PROFITS AND BUILD LONG-TERM FLEXIBILITY

The structure used by savvy Canadian business owners to protect retained earnings, invest tax-efficiently, and prepare for future growth.

A Holding Company (HoldCo) sits above your operating company. It allows you to move money out of the business through tax-free inter-corporate dividends, so your cash is safe if something happens in the operating company.


It also lets you invest retained profits in real estate, market portfolios, or other ventures without triggering personal tax.

Our CPA + tax lawyer team designs the share structure, files all legal documents, and aligns the accounting treatment so everything works seamlessly together.


The result: you keep your wealth protected, liquid, and ready for opportunities.

Key Benefits:

Asset protection – safeguard profits from lawsuits or creditors

Tax-free flow-through – move money between companies without tax

Investment flexibility – invest corporate cash tax-efficiently

Succession ready – simpler transitions or future sale of the OpCo

SET UP A FAMILY TRUST — PROTECT WEALTH AND CREATE GENERATIONAL FLEXIBILITY

The cornerstone of advanced tax and estate planning — control your assets today and build a lasting legacy for your family.

A properly structured family trust allows income and capital gains to be allocated among family members, reducing overall tax and simplifying succession.

It can own shares of your holding or operating companies, letting you move value efficiently while maintaining control.

When it’s time to pass assets down, the trust framework avoids costly probate and keeps your affairs private.

Our CPA + tax lawyer team designs the trust, drafts the legal documents, and ensures alignment with your corporate structure.

You’ll also receive guidance on how to use the trust annually for tax planning and future estate transitions.

Key Benefits:

Income splitting – distribute income among family members

Asset protection – shield business value from personal liability

Estate planning – smooth, tax-efficient transfer of wealth

Privacy & control – avoid probate and maintain discretion
