FREE ON-DEMAND TRAINING:
U.S. Tax and Marketplace Traps Every Non-Resident Seller Must Beat, Before (or After) You Sell into the U.S.
Stop guessing or relying up 2018 information.
In our MasterClass you’ll discover:
• The new “Two-Gate” USTOB, ECI test (now echoed in the UK’s April 2025 bill) that can flip your foreign profits into U.S. taxable income overnight.
• Why TikTok Shop’s W-9 rule forces a U.S. LLC taxed as a corporation—and the 3-step fast-track to set it up without killing launch dates.
• The California sales-tax trigger that’s nailing overseas Amazon sellers, even those who thought “marketplace facilitator” laws covered them.

Find Out What You'll Learn in Our Masterclass
SECRET — 01
The Two-Gate USTOB & ECI Test
Understand how title-transfer, price-setting and risk-of-loss push you across Gate 1, and why “derived from a U.S. asset” triggers taxable ECI under Gate 2. Includes the brand-new UK draft language the IRS can cite today.
SECRET — 02
Blueprint: Save 50 % on $1 M Profit
Client case study: Re-structured before first FBA pallet, cut federal tax from $210K to $105K, and avoided branch-profits tax entirely.
SECRET — 03
TikTok Shop W-9 & PBR Traps
TikTok’s Primary Business Representative (PBR) & W-9 rules make a single-member LLC (DE) worthless. Get the exact entity + address setup that wins fast approval—and keeps UBO disclosures squeaky-clean.
SECRET — 04
California’s Silent Sales-Tax Killer
How California treats marketplace sellers with “inventory in fulfillment stream,” why automated software misses it, and the low-cost registration path that stops retroactive penalties.
BONUS SECRET — 05
Ownership structure matters
Choose wrong (e.g., passive foreign corp + PE) and you face double taxation and treaty denial. See our decision matrix to keep IRS and home-country both satisfied.
ABOUT THE FOUNDER
Meet Scott Letourneau, U.S. Expansion & Tax Strategy Advisor
7,000+ U.S. entities launched since 1997.
Amazon & Shopify Partner • Main Street Certified Tax Advisor • Speaker on five continents.
For three decades I’ve watched non-resident founders lose fortunes because a well-meaning CPA missed just one USTOB/ECI or marketplace-verification detail.
So I built a playbook that closes every gap before the IRS, or Amazon, TikTok Shop, or California FTB—does it for you.
In this free masterclass you’ll see:
• The 2-Gate test that now overrides “My foreign company is safe.”
• The TikTok W-9 + PBR trap that renders a single-member LLC useless.
• A real case study that sliced federal tax by 50 % on $1 M profit before the first FBA pallet shipped.
Skip it and you may spend the next three years waiting for the audit letter that wipes out your U.S. margin.
Watch it and you’ll know exactly how to expand with confidence—whether you stay foreign, form a U.S. entity, or run a hybrid structure.
