Module 1: Corporate Anatomy & Legal Structures

Philippine entity types create different continuity, liability, and estate-tax exposures. Advisors must map each structure before recommending funded solutions.

Sole Proprietorship

DTI-registered. No separate juridical personality — business debts reach personal assets. Death ends the enterprise unless heirs continue informally.

Risk: unlimited liability

Partnership

SEC or general partnership. Civil Code default: death of a partner dissolves the firm unless agreement says otherwise — triggers valuation and buyout pressure.

Risk: automatic dissolution

Corporation

Separate entity; shares are estate assets. Probate can freeze transfer of shares, blocking cap tables and lender covenants until estate tax is settled.

Risk: shareholder gridlock

The Three Hats Framework

Business Owner — continuity, lender confidence, funded buy-sell.

Discovery question: "If your partner died next quarter, who votes their shares?"

Employer — retention, deferred comp, key person.

Discovery question: "What revenue walks out the door if your top producer left?"

Family Head — TRAIN 6% estate tax, non-probate transfers.

Discovery question: "Where will heirs get cash to pay BIR without selling the company?"

Membership & billing FAQ

Professional vs Elite?
Professional (₱999/mo) is the learning community — resources, monthly master class, and 20% off Academies. Elite (₱2,999/mo) is the full ecosystem — all Academies and coaching included.
Should I buy one Academy or join Elite?
One Academy is ₱7,990–₱12,990 (standalone). If you want more than one program, Elite at ₱2,999/month is often the better economics — plus coaching.
Is Discover the same as Preview?
Yes — free assessment, newsletter, and webinars. Upgrade to Professional for community benefits or purchase / unlock Academies.
If I cancel Elite after one month?
Elite benefits (all Academies, coaching) end when your paid period ends — access returns to Discover until you renew. This prevents using Elite for one month to keep every Academy permanently. A standalone Academy you purchased separately remains yours.
