Why do 65% of businesses fail in the first 5 years? Do you know?

According to Investopedia, the most common reasons small businesses fail include a lack of capital or funding, an inadequate management team, a faulty business model, and unsuccessful marketing initiatives.

Starting an online business from a developing country can be very difficult.

You wake up earlier than everyone else to work in the "golden time zones"
- EST, CST, PST and MST.

You watch all the Youtube videos and learn all the marketing tactics from your favourite guru.

You're ready to implement everything they've sworn will work and then reality sets in
You quickly discover that to run a business you need to sell.

To sell you need to collect payments.

And to collect payments, well...

"We're sorry but your location is currently unsupported at this time. Please fill the form to get notified when we are available in your location"

It's been 6 months and the notification has not yet arrived.

How are you supposed to run an online business if you can't even receive payments online?

You dust off your shoulders and tell yourself that you didn't come this far just to quit. It's not the first time you've hit a road bump on your way to success

At this point, some people get a bit clever and create some questionable workarounds

Everything seems fine at first until they get that dreaded email from PayPal with something along the lines of:

"Your account is currently under review due to unusual and suspicious activity. Please, provide the following documents..." 🙆🏽‍♀️

Well, that's no surprise, because their U.S. PayPal account was set up with fake names, addresses, and details. Their money is frozen inside PayPal and they can't verify their identity because everything was fake!

I didn't believe I could have an online business with Bank account, I tried different options online to keep my business running with no luck, I was going to give up until I found the LLC Formula. My business was saved and I got the opportunity to keep my job. Thank you Belema for your assistance, you've been very patient, you answered to all my questions and helped me step by step taking me to success. I recommend every one to take this course cause if I succeeded everyone will succeed. I also recommend to take any courses that Belema offers cause with Belema you will get value and you will never fail.

I CAN GUESS THAT

maybe one of these is you

FREELANCER

You sell your services online but besides Fiverr, Upwork and Freelancer, you can't really work anywhere else and you're tired of depending on the platforms and their rules

ONLINE COACH

Or maybe a consultant. You want to sell your expertise to your clients but they have no way of paying you. You have to depend on direct bank transfers which don't always work

DROPSHIPPER

You're ready to start a dropshipping business online but between blocked Shopify Payments and frozen PayPal account, it's becoming near impossible

DIGITAL PRODUCTS

You've made ebooks, mini courses and online trainings but you're currently limited to only selling through Instagram, Facebook and Whatsapp

you may have tried

Someone in the U.S. loaning you their PayPal account which you can use to receive payments from your clients. (You'll get your money from the U.S. guy later... somehow)
OR
... you do direct bank-to-bank transfer with each of your clients and customers.

Both options are rather frustrating.

If you go with the first option (assuming you find someone you can trust in the U.S. who also understands the legal and financial implications of partnering with you), you'll have to awkwardly ask for your money to be transferred each week or month. 

Good luck growing a successful business using this method. If you go with the second option, then your customers are forced to prove they've paid you for work each time.

That's how "proof screenshots" sent to emails were invented. If you intend to sell to many people, the last thing you want to do is to force each customer to
  • First do a bank transfer (and pay the transfer fees), then,
  • screenshot the receipt of the transfer, then,
  • ​send the screenshot to you, then,
  • ​wait for you to receive the money and verify that they've paid, and finally...
  • wait for you to grant them access to your course or service.

FIVE UNNECESSARY steps just to sell one single product or service! 🤦🏾‍♀️

As an international business owner, this level of difficulty you're forcing your clients to go through is added to the existing biases that they already have about you:

With all these limitations, you're left selling low-ticket products, one at a time, and to only people in your own country (or a few people outside your country). 

There's no way to sell high-ticket products or digital products to even up to 1,000 people when your customers have to go through hell just to pay you.

what if there was a better way to do business And Receive Endless Payment Notifications Without The Unnecessary Headache

hello my name is

Belema Ronabere

I'm a Nigerian entrepreneur, business coach, and six figure course launch agency owner. In 2015, I moved to the Caribbean on a full-ride scholarship to study medicine. 

By September that same year, the scholarship program was discontinued and I was immediately financially stranded. A few months later, I was kicked out of my apartment because I could no longer pay the rent, and I was forced to go live with a friend for a while.

Then in 2017, I decided to start my first online business as an Administrative Virtual Assistant. I needed to make some money. I needed to at least be able to pay the light bill in the house I was staying in. But there was one problem... I couldn't receive payments in the country I was living in. No PayPal, No Stripe, No Square... Nothing! And sadly, no alternatives either.

I'm a Nigerian entrepreneur, business coach, and six figure course launch agency owner. In 2015, I moved to the Caribbean on a full-ride scholarship to study medicine.

Then in 2017, I decided to start my first online business as an Administrative Virtual Assistant. I needed to make some money. I needed to at least be able to pay the light bill in the house I was staying in. But there was one problem... I couldn't receive payments in the country I was living in. No PayPal, No Stripe, No Square... Nothing! And sadly, no alternatives either.

This meant that my chances of selling anything online 
were automatically dead 
(even before my business took off).

After a little research, I found out that some other virtual assistants were using Payoneer to receive money online. I was so excited because it meant that my business could actually start making money.

In the first month, working over 15-hour days, 7 days a week, I made $150. Looking back, I remember being so excited to actually receive the money and hold it in my hands.

In no time, my skills grew, and so did my prices. In 2019, I was making over $5,000 a month regularly. But I still had one problem.

You see, I still couldn't sell anything online. With Payoneer, I still had no payment gateway. That means I had to speak with every customer and send them an invoice before I could receive money.

This automatically put a limit on the growth of my business. Any model that requires you to trade time for money and leaves no room for automation is very difficult to scale.

I HAD TO get a payment gateway.
None of the tutorials, advice, tips or tricks that I found online would work for me. Paypal and Stripe were NOT available in my country and I was left to look for my own solutions.

I discovered that if I registered my business in the U.S. as an LLC, I would immediately have access to the payment gateways I wanted. I was very happy because it felt like I had finally made progress. 

My happiness turned to sadness when I tried to actually start the registration process and all the agencies I reached out to were charging ridiculously expensive fees.

Stripe Atlas was another option, but it was application only and the waitlist procedure was taking too long.

In quarter three of 2019, I decided it was enough and I started to do my own research. I finally figured out an affordable solution to getting my LLC registered legally in the U.S. and activating my Stripe and PayPal Business accounts from right here in the Caribbean that's why I can sell online today

I also took the privilege of documenting exactly how I did so and everything I needed to get it done. Then, I perfected the process by helping a few friends do the exact same thing.

A payment gateway is very crucial for any online business. If you are living in a country where you don't have access to payment gateways like Stripe and Paypal, you know the pain you have to go through. Belema's course is absolutely a lifesaver. She shows you how to get a Stripe account for non supported countries. Valuable course. Thanks Belema!

YOUR PRESSING QUESTIONS... ANSWERED

Is $67 the entire cost of setting up my company

No. $67 covers the cost of the course, The LLC Formula, which will teach you the information you need. You need around $400 (or less) to DIY the company formation

How much does it cost to set up in total?

It costs around $300 - $400 depending on the choices you make. You'll learn more inside the course. These prices can change anytime

How long will it take to set up from start to finish?

It takes a minimum of 1 day to register your LLC.
4 weeks for an EIN via Fax (recent update due to COVID)
2 weeks for bank account approval after you get your EIN.
To get it faster you may need to pay extra

Will I need to pay any ongoing fees?

Yes, you would need to. As with every business (which you are now a full fledged, registered business), there are ongoing fees required to keep you compliant and in good standing. The good news is that many of these are annual fees and are not required in your first year, which gives you time to earn the money. The fees vary. More inside the course

How much will I pay in taxes?

The elephant in the room. To oversimplify this answer, you may or may not be required to pay taxes, you may only be required to file tax reports. As a non-resident, your tax status differs based on a couple of factors.
You may or may not be eligible based on those criteria. I have provided an accountant recommendation that you can speak to and they'll help you figure out the taxes for your specific situation for your country

Can I transfer my money to my local bank account?

It depends on the bank option you choose. You'll have a couple of choices. Based on your location and business type, you can choose which one will work best. Some bank will allow direct wire, others require a few extra steps

Is my country of residence supported for LLC formation and U.S Banks?

Most countries are allowed to form an LLC and get a US bank account. 

Currently known unsupported countries for LLC/Bank Accounts are: 
Belarus, Burundi, Central African Republic, Cuba, DR Congo, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Nicaragua, North Korea, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Ukraine, Yemen, Zimbabwe

Will you open a bank account for me?

This is a DIY course but if you want a Done For You service for this, you'll get more details inside of the course

Can you guarantee that I will get a bank account?

I cannot guarantee that Stripe or any of the recommended banks will for sure open and approve a bank for you. My job is to show you how. Each business is unique so it completely depends on your business.

Do I need to do bookkeeping and accounting?

Very much yes! You're a full fledged business owner. No more mixing personal and business finances and you will need to keep track of your books as well as manage accounting.

How will I get an SSN?

As non-residents, you can't legally get an SSN. Instead you can apply for an EIN and use that for your business.

How do I get Stripe as a dropshipping business?

I've included how to activate Stripe from a non-supported country. You'll see the information listed out so you can start selling from your account. No SSN needed

What kind of support can I get if I get stuck?

You can leave your comments/questions inside the members' area. If you run into any technical/billing difficulties, our support email is readily available to you.

How long can I keep the course for?

You get unlimited access to the course once you purchase

How do I get access?

You'll receive an email with login details for you to access the course. Please note, I will not be sending you any Google Drive links to "download" the course.

Can you reduce the price? 

$67 is a steal for the wealth of information inside the course. If you can't afford it right now, you can always save a little more and come back later

Will Stripe allow me open an account?

Please note that if your business falls under the restricted business list, I can't help you get an account. Click here to view the full list.

Do you offer PayPal options?

Yes, just click on any of the "BUY NOW" buttons and you'll see a PayPal option for you to take advantage of.
