I have an idea for an invention.. where do I go next? -

I ve got an idea for something that could be invented, and I think would be really popular for the target audience. After loads of searching, I can t find anything else like it.I ve had a search on google, but everything I find to show my idea involves paying a lot of money first! Anyone got any ideas of people I could talk to about this? I m UK based.Thanks!

Can you invent it yourself? If you can and you still believe in it you will need to get a patent for it and then look on doing a business plan for funding.If not you would need to approach somebody in the market that the invention is for.Obviously you don t want to say too much about what your idea is at the moment but whoever you decide to approach make sure you get them to sign a confidentiality agreement.I am an entrepreneur and may be able to help you.Email me at chris@jobdepressed.com

Contact the Intellectual Property Office (IPO). They provide some free help and advice and run free seminars around the country. We went to one in London a few months ago and it was really helpful. We thought we needed to apply for a patent but found out we only needed to protect our design rights and copyright, both of which cost a lot less.You can also talk in confidence to your local Business Link. Again, their advice is free.Good luck!

Some companies place adverts and charge you to develop products e.g. help you with design and patents. Dont use them, the products rarely get developed and you end up paying them a fee.

How to add the 613 percent to an amount in excel? I need to add 613% to $2.8476. Please help? -

you multiply 2.8476 by (1+6.16)in excel you would type:=2.8476*7.16

Thank you so much DTH I got it right. Report Abuse

if you have $2.8476 in A1 then in B1 you could type=(A1*613%)+A1I am assuming that the $ sign is from the cell formating

Is there a way to find legimate work from home jobes.? -

I m severely disabled and would like to work on my computer from home.

everyone laughs but you can make money online by joining paid survey programs.. I would start by joining one company first to see how you like it and if it works for you then sign up with as many good companies as you can.. the more surveys you sign up to receive the more money you will make.. it takes work and effort because sometimes you wont qualify for the highest paying surveys but like any job if you work hard at it will pay off.. good luck..copy and paste this address they re the easiest to get started with:

Yes, but it is hard. The work from home market is saturated with scams so before you begin know the basics: don t give out your bank or credit card information and if in doubt check out BBB or ripoffreport.com. A great website that lists companies that hire people to work from home is www.athomeopps.com All of the companies are completely legit-none of them will ask for money and they all pay. Good luck.

You should have a look this program that I tried. It works amazing for me and I make good income every months. You can get more information from link below.

Do i need to add Air Mail sticker if i use square white sticky label from post office? -

Is it true that when you send letter with square white sticky label stamp printed by staff at post office, you dont need air mail sticker as the sticky label already has a code for air mail on it. And what is the correct postage price for sending a large letter which in uk costs 61p. I ask this because everytime i go to my 3 different nearby post offices, they always charge me different prices, one says its 56p, one says, 81p, one says ��1.21 and one even says ��1.35 which even i know is for posting outside of europe. No post office staff is properly trained to be aware of the actual cost. Large letter here costs only 61p which has 25 grams weight so how much within europe?THANKS IN ADVANCEThanks in advance.

No letter needs an Air Mail sticker - but it helps ensure it gets treated properly. The PO give them away free or you can just write Air Mail on your letter if it s going to an english speaking country or, in your case, Air Mail - Par Avion will be recognised in most countries.25g to Europe is 81p - that is for a letter. If you are sending goods then they may charge you ��1.21 which is the small packet rate. Tell them you want to send it letter rate - and if they say you can only send letters by letter rate tell them letter rate goes up to 2000g and do they really think anyone writes a 2kg letter!?

I need about $1500.00 to start a Graffiti Removal business, where should I start? -

Basically I have the skills. I just need a small amount of start up cash to get going. Any Ideas would help.

Recycle, Ask for donations by canvassing the neighborhood and letting them know what you are doing (a lot of people will donate about 2 or 3 dollars, so after a while, you ll have a bunch!), ask your friends, invest what you have right now in the market, sell some of your stuff on ebay or craigslist, dunno, there s lots you can do....If you are interested in opening an account with scottrade, you can use this promotional code to get 3 free trades. The promo code is BJCF2139.

Since it seems that this is your first time in business, I would highly recommend that you talk to a business counselor before you do anything especially spend money. You have to determine what legal form your business will take and how you are going to attract customers. I d call the local office of SCORE (see link below and input your zip code to find the chapter nearest you), the advice is FREE. The counselor at SCORE will most likely advise you to write a business plan which is very good advice because it will force you to dig out all of the start up details and the costs of starting your small business and force you to also understand all of the aspects of this business including the customers you ll concentrate on (your market) and how you ll go after them.You ll need to register the business with your state controller s office and make sure that you have any city and county licenses if any are needed where you live. All of this will come out in a business plan.You ll also find good advice at YCHANGE International (see link below) and read some of the articles especially the ones about a business plan and starting a business.

First things, first... Do you have a business plan?Go to http://www.sba.gov/You will find all about the start-up of any business.

What is the best way to get hold of a franking machine for a small business? -

Posting out approximately 100 small packages a week.

Franking machines are very expensive...I had one for my small business and had to top up the postage periodically by getting the machine to call Pitney Bowes . Not only did I have to pay the monthly rental but I had to pay an admin fee every time I topped it up! Although the top-up was automatic, it only worked 9-5 which was a pain because as an eBay seller I did most of my post in the evening. There is a slight saving on stamps cost (IIRC 3p per letter) but it really isn t worth it.I set up an arrangement with my local postmaster that I delivered my un-stamped parcels daily and they stamped them when they were quiet and I paid once a week. No queueing for me and a bit of extra money for a local business. Bear in mind, there is an element of trust on both sides for an arrangement like this to work.Alternatively, if your packages all weigh the same - buy the appropriate stamps in bulk.

You can buy postage online that prints on regular labels. Saves a ton of money:http://www.stamps.com/welcome/?subsource��

What business can I open from home? -

Hey King!Have you ever considered Network Marketing? With a few months of work you can create residual income. (Income that keeps coming, even if you don t do anything after those few months.) Check out this site.This 3 video set (20 minutes in total) DOES NOT promote any product or business, it just explains network marketing. http://www.explorefreedom/kingsoyI am a network marketer, and every once in a while a product comes along that is amazing.This has done so much for my family and I, and I believe in this more than (almost) anything I have ever done before. The almost is in case my girlfriend reads this. :pOk, just 2 more sites for you to check out, if that video got you pumped up (which I know it did).http://www.ceresliving.comClick on the Product and Opportunity tabs on this site and explore around a bit.Then go tohttp://renewal.myceresliving.comIf you click on the Get Started section, you can listen to some powerful stuff.Hope to hear from you,Louaiorenewal@gmail.comP.S. I know that starting a business for yourself can be a little scary, so just know you are not doing this alone. I have people watching over me and helping me that are multi-millionaires, absolute geniuses in this market, and you can and should have their help too. Thanks for your time!

How to own your own Business? -

I want to own my own small Business, but i have no idea how. I was looking on a university website to see if they had the program, but i have no idea what im supposed to do? and im in british columbia. Thanks

Do you have something in mind already and don t know how to get started or are you still looking for a business concept? Without knowing that all I can do is tell you what I do.For specifics see the site listed in my source. It s free to sign up and has different components that you can join or not join if you choose. Some components are free and some aren t (those that aren t free have a free trial period). The free ones have a more limited earning capability but can be used to build capital for the ones with more substantial earning potential. The free component can also be used as proof that money can be made online before committing to options that require a monthly fee. You can make a little bit of money in a short period of time but to build significant income will take time and effort, it s not easy money.

Don��t confuse self employment with owning a business. If you have to preform the work yourself you really own a job not a business. If you own a real business, the business will not require your daily presence to operate as your employees will handle the daily operations. If you like pets, consider becoming a pet photographer. Amanda Jones of North Adams Massachusetts earns over $500,000 per year photographing pets and many others earn a six figure income photographing pets.Look on ebay and search engines for information on the business. You can download a free book on the subject at www.PetPhotographyBusiness.com

I would like to start my own personal meal planning business online...? -

How would I go about starting it?Thanks.

Check out who else is offering a similar service. This determines two things - 1 that there s a demand for the service and 2 you can think about how you can do it better or in such a way that people will buy from you rather than your competitors.The next thing is to consider who you ll do it for and how you ll reach them. Do they have a proven track record of spending on this sort of thing? If they do and you can access them easily, you can start thinking about how you ll set up the business.The key things are a well written site that makes it easy for potential customers to find and, once they ve found it, it s easy for them to use.Assuming you re in the UK, speak to your local Business Link about starting up. They do a very good course on setting up websites as well as general business advice.You may need to consider having your site written for you as it s likely to have a database behind the front of it. E-commerce sites start about ��1200 and the sky s the limit from there. You should be able to have something done for under ��2000.Good luck!

Well, before doing anything you must develop a website. Doing this is simple. All you need is a host and domain. A host, in case you don t know, is the service that posts your site on the internet. And a domain is basically an address for your site, also known as a URL. Next, you need a website creator; these programs make it easy for new businesses to design their own website. Of course, if you re knowledgeable with HTML, doing your own coding can save you money. I recommend finding a host that provides all three of these services. Doing this will make the building of your site much more simple and smooth. Now, after you have your site comes the construction of its content. You must decide what will go in it, and pay careful attention to the quality. Without quality any traffic that comes your way will be useless and unprofitable. Take a look at other similar sites and consider what they do and how they do it. Finally, let s talk about how to make money. Since you are thinking of starting a meal planning business, I m guessing most of your site will be content-based. Meaning there is no product just knowledge being offered. Sites like these are actually quite profitable when involved in an affiliate program. Of course, all sites can benefit from them even if you do offer a product. Programs like these allow you to make money by directing targeted traffic to other sites. . I would suggest going to HTTP://WWW.BISAFFILIA.COM/where they will teach you how to use said programs. Their explanations are simple and given to you step-by-step with no charge or sign-up needed.

How hard is it to be an entrepreneur? -

Your question has many answers. It really depends on what you mean by hard. To be a successful entrepreneur, there is no question that hard work is key. Nobody makes it to the top without hard work. However, it is a different matter semantically to say that being an entrepreneur requires hard work than it is to say that it is hard to be an entrepreneur.For example, let s consider the example of a man, John, to whom entrepreneurship simply comes naturally to. John loves what he does, and so in spite of the fact that he works very hard and devotes countless hours to his business, he would not describe being an entrepreneur as hard, because this sounds negative and does not accurately reflect his feelings about entrepreneurship.

Overall, no harder or easier than any other occupation. If you focus on the keys to success, planning, marketing and financial management, you can be successful owning your own business. If you find you are not self-motivated, willing to put in 100%, or significantly distracted from the rest of your life, it can be harder to be an entrepreneur.

The answer is actually how hard you make it for yourself. Take an inventory of your skills or interests. Then do some research to see if anyone is in need of those skills or interests. Decide what your time is worth to you and see if the prospect is willing to pay you.There are a lot of Market Research tools available to you that can help you in your search. Yahoo has plenty of them for you to use.

Not hard if you are an originator. Otherwise extremely difficult and requires a whole palette of human skills.

How to start selling baked goods from home? -

I decided to start selling some of my grandmother s Hungarian cookies and pastries. Does anyone have any ideas of how I could start?

If you baked at home and gave away the goodies, all is well.Sell the goodies and someone , local or state, will start asking questions.Lots of questions, like is the kitchen licensed? Are you licensed to sell (anything) ? Got a zoning variance to have a home based business in a residential neighborhood? Do you have insurance etc and etc.If you could rent time at a local, licensed kitchen, you can bypass some of the questions.

Can you please give me some interview tips. What are the possible quetions and what are the good answers.? -

please give me an example that an interviewee may ask me in a hotel

ok.. this is the basic / common tips .. for a hotel or for any company/ store/ business/ job you are applying for..If the position you are applying for requires quite a bit of research (i.e. junior, middle and senior management positions) being knowledgeable about a company shows that you are proactive and committed about working for them. Possessing this type of knowledge prior to interview will also make you feel more confident.Visit the company / Hotel website Keep a copy of the job advert - it tells you a lot - and enables you to build your questions on the position itself Request a copy of the company brochure/annual report and any other relevant information pertaining to the job and company (i.e. promotional material) Check on any past news articles (found in libraries or on the internet) Keep an eye on the current news for any relevant articles General Research Check ListWhat does this company do What services do they offer / What do they sell When was it started and by whom Experience of Hierarchy Location (s) Turnover and trading history Staff size Who are their customers Structured Career Programme How secure are the employees Working Environment It is very important to give out the right signals during the interview - therefore we suggest:Smile on entrance and make eye contact with all present in the room - and maintain lots of eye contact throughout the interview Give a firm handshake, this shows you are confident Wait to be offered a seat - do not sit down without being offered to and then wait for your interviewer(s) to sit first If you are offered a drink and you want one - it is advisable to accept water - it helps if you dry up and is less messy than tea or coffee (accidents can happen in nervous situations) Look and sound enthusiastic Look attentive and alert - don t slouch or fidget Maintain an open upright stance, lean forward slightly and try not to look too defensive as this will betray your nerves Speak clearly and loudly enough so that all in the room will hear Take your time in answering questions and think before answering questions Listen, try not to get distracted or talk too much Do not get to close to the interviewer(s) or invade their personal space Do not scratch you ears or cover your mouth with your hands or fingers - Common Question asked by Interviewer sWhen preparing and answering remember:Try to think of examples that illustrate where your abilities and skills match their requirements Keep your answers as relevant as possible to questions and relevant to the position you are applying for If you have come to the end of your answer after a particular question but you feel the interviewer is still not satisfied with the answer ask them do you want me to expand on this - and if so which area in particular Always be honest! Tell me about yourself Give a short summary of your qualifications, career history and skills. What do you enjoy about your current job? Focus on things that are relevant to the job that you are applying for. Pick out things that demonstrate a diverse range of skills and interests. Explain your current role and duties Explain how you fit into your department and what your reporting lines are. Talk about how you interact with others in the department and your key responsibilities. What has been your main achievement in your current role? Think about projects you have been involved in, the results and the impact they had on the company. Bring proof of any of your achievements to the interview. Do not show any of your current employers confidential company information. What are your strengths? Think about three or four of your main strengths, try to focus on skills that are relevant to the new company. Good examples are communication, social, sales, IT (if required), flexibility, positive attitude and interpersonal skills. What are your weaknesses? This can be a difficult question to answer. We all have weaknesses (and remember it is a strength to admit your weakness). Try to think of a positive way to present a weakness, eg. explain how you have overcome it and think of an example to back this up. Have you ever come across a difficult situation at work and how did you handle it? Have you ever come across a difficult situation at work and how did you handle it? Why do you want this job? Pick out the positive aspects of the job you are applying for. Try to avoid mentioning things like more money or shorter hours. Do not mention negative aspects of your current post but you can include factors such as wanting a new challenge or more responsibility. You can perhaps emphasis their image and their growth strategy - and explain that you want to be part of that. What interests you about this company? Your research into the company will be paramount to answering this question. Mentioning facts such as their products/services, sal

What is a good, legit home startup business? -

I would like to start a lucrative business from home. I have wracked my brain for a year, just nothing comes to mind. My main skills are: graphic designer (degreed), I am a wildlife artist, photographer, and work as a website design consultant. I am very good at logos, but it just seems all my skill sets are in a flooded market. I would love to do something different, and not join a pyramid scheme. I just want to find a good, honest job I can do that I can put sweat equity into. I went through a divorce and not in a great financial position. :( I am quite creative in the arts, but am very happy to go outside of my skills. My strengths, people skills, very computer savvy, fun person. Weaknesses, to be completely honest, organization. :o)

As a professional coach I m going out on a limb to tell you you re approaching this from the wrong perspective I m afraid. It s kind of like choosing a career just because it pays well. Do you want to enjoy what you do 1, 5 or 20 years from now?You re correct in looking at the skills you have but that in itself isn t enough. Just because you can drive a car doesn t mean you should be a bus driver.The areas you need to combine if you want to do something you love are:1) skills and abilities, 2) personality traits, 3) values, dreams and passions.

Have you tried free lancing?http://www.getafreelancer.com/

I was the same way trying to figure out how I could make money. I think your in a better situation. You have so much talent. The way I make money is by doing niche websites. Websites on things that has something to do with my passion. I found SBI and they taught me everything I needed to know about the business of websites. They supply you with the knowledge and tools to make money. You will make money off of it, if you do what they say. A lot of people think that you can just put a site up and your good. It does take work, but you get what you pay for. It is no get rich quick scheme. SBI was a dream come true. The only thing that I hate about it was the lack of templates, but they are working on that. With your background, it will be a breeze. You do have to put in some work as far as writing content, but it will all pay off. Its totally your business. My website is one month old. I put a ton of work into it.Check out my website. http://www.avon-representatives.com/legitimateworkfromhome.html read my true story if you want or skip it and go straight down to the SBI link. P.S. There is a money back guarantee on it.

Im concerned about my pay-packed from where i work. ? -

Some of us work in different locations in a job but as for me i work in a supermarket, though when i went to look at my pay packed its got that amount you earn in a week plus the amount of hours you done but if i were to add up the total every week until i got up to 1 year , does that mean it would bring me to the total i earned in a year ?

No. it would bring you to the total that you were paid in the year. What you are paid and what you earn are not necessarily the same.

In with your wage packet you will have a wage slip that shows your gross pay. The gross pay is the amount you earned that week before any deductions such as tax or national insurance. If you add up all the gross pay for each week then that will give you the amount earned for the year. Your wage slip may also have a section that says earnings to date , so that would tell you exactly what you have earned in the current tax year. Remember that the official tax year starts on 5th April. At the end of each tax year you will receive a P60 which is the official confirmation of what has been paid to you in that tax year.

That s the whole year to date thingAlso WTF is a pay-packed ?

Business License for Website? -

Do you need a business license?do you need one if you create a website that involves money? just curious.

It may depend on the type of business, but chances are that you do not need a license. There are many different types of filings and licenses depending on the business, but they aren t for everyone. If you re thinking of setting up somewhat of a hobby business to run online you don t really need a license.If you get into buying and selling stuff online though, your should contact an accountant. Just because you don t need a license doesn t mean that your tax liability won t change.

I would contact your Secretary of State. They should have a list of businesses that require licenses or at least be able to direct you to the right resources. Since you specifically mention the site will involve money, I would suggest contacting your department of banking to be sure what you plan is legal. Some financial activities are regulated by the SEC so you might want to check there as well.Good Luck

How do I start my own workable website that I can run at home? -

it really depends on what it is you are trying to do, but you can search for best web hosting sites on the internet. there are tons (including sites like yahoo stores) that offer very low monthly fees and tools to quickly and easily get a business web site up and running. The good ones have clear step-by-step processes to follow. But for all of these, it is ultimately dependent upon you having some underlying business idea / concept!I would be very cautious about sites that claim to help you set everything up and then they do all the work (like give you product to sell, do your search engine optimization, etc). If it were that easy, they wouldnt need you - they just want your money!Good luck.

Why do I have to tip a hairdresser I have already paid $150 to for service when I know she will take home? -

about 60 - 70% of that amount. I think tipping hairdressers is like paying twice. They are not making the low wages waiters make. What is going on with this country that we have to tip people for every service we have already fully paid. Next we will have to tip secretaries and teachers.

I dont understand why Americans tip for everything, here in Australia tipping is not necessary or compulsory except maybe an exclusive restaurant.I suppose if you were happy with her service would use her again, maybe you should tip her (so she doesnt stuff up your hair next time). However if you were not happy wont use her again, dont tip her

Hi Karl,There is just NO SUCH THING as a bad business idea! The problems arise when people make decisions about business based on faulty or incomplete information.Planning is key. In order to plan effectively, you must conduct some research. What do you need to provide your services? Who will you provide them to? Who are you competing against? What makes you better; gives you an edge ? How are you going to reach your prospects/potential clients? Answering these kinds of questions gives you a basis to begin a business plan.You can download my free research outline at www.abusinessmentor.comIt should certainly guide you in the right direction.Good Luck!

ppl do that on ebay all the timewhat seems to be really popular is taking band t-shirts and making them into a unique shirt designed to fit a woman s curves

How much should I charge for computer services? -

I already have some pricing set up, but I would like some feedback/suggestions. I do web design (HTML), but mostly PC repairs/upgrades. For example, how much should I charge to add RAM to a computer?Thanks for any advice!

Call up the most well-known computer repair shop in the area and ask them what their price is, and cut it. I m going to go half. I live in a small town, and there isn t a single shop in town. Everyone takes their computers to a Best Buy to get them repaired. The prices are outrageous, and the results completely unsatisfactory.$40 + the cost of the RAM to add it is good, I think. Seriously, it takes like ten minutes. If you re slow.

i would call up three or four local competitors to see what their prices are for the services i want to offer. i would then create a spreadsheet of 3-4 items per competitor and put it all in a matrix. this will give you a fair idea of what the market you re in is willing to pay for your services. go by your gut feeling. sometimes when you talk to customers, you get an idea of how much they are willing to spend. ask customers who are price shopping how much they perceive the value of your service is. that will knock some reality into your pricing and help you correct upward or downward for next time. by the time you re on to your 10th customer, you will have a fairly good idea of pricing. good luck.

How do i get into a real estate business? -

plz help me

How do you want to get involved? To be a real estate broker, you need to take special classes, pass the state exam, and get a realtor s license from your state government. This will allow you to sell properties for clients and help customers buy real estate.If you want to become a landlord, find some property to rent and have a lawyer explain landlord/tenant laws in your area. The lawyer should also draw up a lease for you to use when renting your properties.

Does it look better if i walk in and apply for a job or apply on the internet? -

I have applied for like a million jobs online with minimal response! My friends tell me to walk around and hand resumes in but i have no confidence! What should i do....Help

It looks like everyone is unanimously saying to walk in . I however wouldn t automatically say this. I own a business and I prefer that they do not come in to give me a resume. I prefer to receive the resumes via email and then invite qualified candidates in for an interview. I say this as a warning only though. It really depends on the type of job you are applying for. If it is at a big company then it is unlikely you would even get to see the person who is doing the hiring. If it is a small company then your chances are better and if it is a really small company then you might even be able to make a job for yourself. For example ask yourself what do I like to do? and what am I good at? I hope you are looking for a job that has to do with your answers. That will make you more confident. If you are good at something and think you can help someone else make more money by doing it then you could go in to their office, not just with a resume, but with a plan. Tell them how you believe you can make them money (or save them money) and then ask for the chance to do it. That would impress a business owner. They want to hire people they can trust, who will take ownership of their position, and help a company grow. I ve never had anyone contact me through my profile so I don t know how to do it. If you have any questions about my answer please feel free to ask. I m happy to help.

Look. someone has a stack of applications that they have to go through. You show up and if they choose you they can forget the others. Act enthusiastic. Don t worry about self-confidence--this is the way you will build yours. By taking care of business instead of acting like a little baby. Internet only is good for non-local applications.

In person, most definitely! If you show up in person you can have the chance to show that you are sure of yourself and your answers. Just practice in front of the mirror, it sounds stupid but it works. Plus, I think if you apply in person it shows that you care enough to actually get up and go there.If you apply online it just looks like you stumbled across a link and said oh look, maybe ill try this . Good luck! :]

Walk in with your resume. It is harder for them to ignore you if you are standing there in person. Plus they are getting a first look without committing themselves. If you are too shy to walk into a shop or restaurant then I am sorry for you.

in person..this way they can see how you carry yourself and how you answer any questions

What is the best major for managing a business or company? Prefer if its a small company or business? -

I hear business administration, business management, human resource management, accounting, entrepreneurship and small business management are seperately but why? What is a major where i will be taking classes in accounting and human resource management..im really confused

Where does your interest lie? Human Resources is for someone who will handle the employees (payroll, benefits, etc.) Accounting is for someone to handle the money, like a CFO, Entrepreneurship is and small business mgmt is for people who intend on running their own business. If you are looking to run someone elses business, go for bus admin or bus mgmt. Your choices are all dependent on what you intend to do in the future. If you are planning on starting your own business go for the Entreprenuership and minor in small bus. But be sure to take classes in accounting and HR so that you are not solely dependent on allowing other people control your money - that will get you in trouble.

You can sell products without a web site.

One of the best places that I know is clickbank.com they have thousands of products that you can advertise and make a commission on sales and sometimes even recurring commissions

How do i earn money at 13? -

Im planning to move out at 18 but i have 4 years till then. I want to move to california and get a good job and live in an apartment when i move there:) But i think you gotta be 15 or older to get a job? I wanna make 20,000 before 4 years :] How do i spend the 2 years waiting? How to earn money?(:thanks

20 grand is a bit of a stretch, but you can certainly try.Babysit, dog sit, house sit, lawn work, ask a family member if you can work for them, ebay, etsy (make something yourself), housecleaning, Christmas decorating service, gift wrapping service, car washing, invent a product or sell something locally, yard sale.

http://wickedloversss.blogspot.com/There are ways to earn money, you can check it out.I suggest doing the freebie sites, no matter what they are. Then bug your mom to go to a flee market and sell the free stuff. Instant profit. Also you could try the swag link. It gives you paypal money if you ask your mom to create you an account. I find it to be one of the best ways.

I m a 15 year old high school student and I know what it feels like to be in desperate need of money. Recently, I came across an awesome and legit website. There is absolutely nothing to buy or sell; you just make money doing what you��re already doing. It s absolutely free to become an active member. In order to make more money, make sure you tell your friends and family about it. Check it out: http://www.peoplestring.com/?u=sanjolipahal

I created a product, now I need a UPC bar code for it. Where can I get one? Is there more than 1 provider? -

I have no idea how much it costs, but this organization administers UPC registration: http://www.gs1us.org/

You can lease a block of 100 numbers (that s the minimum that they do) from GS1. There you will pay a fee to join and then annual fees going forward every year.Or, you can purchase a single UPC code from a barcode reseller such as our firm for outright ownership without any annual fees. Take a look at this part of our FAQ for more details: http://www.upccode.net/faq.html#q14Hope this helps!Your friends at Simply Barcodeshttp://www.UPCcode.net

What is my quot;local dhl officequot;? -

I recently ordered something online and the package never came. I emailed the people and they said that my package is on hold because of an incomplete address and to, please contact your local dhl office with your tracking number ------------------------ as soon as possible to arrange the delivery process.Is this the post office?

DHL is a shipping company, like FedEx. Go online to DHL.com to find your local DHL facility

Hi Achilles,DHL is a courier company. They must have sent your package via DHL. I m not sure where you live, but I put a link to the DHL homepage at the bottom. You can find your local office from there. I will warn you, they have very questionable service in my experience. Just be prepared for that.

DHL is the new name for Airborne Express

What are the legal requirements when starting up a private limited company? -

business homework project /:

limited liability company or a corporation? the only requirements are that you have a registered agent in the state you re filing in. You can have a single member LLC or the sole-director/shareholder of a corporation. As far as citizenship, it might be hard for you to get a tax ID number from the IRS if you re not a citizen of the US.

Is there a time limit on filing a suit in small clams court?, amp; how does it work?.? -

i bought a car from my cousins friend. it took me several months to pay for. i took the car back to the guy because it as leaking oil. he then informed me i needed a new engine. while the car was at his shop it was vandalized beyond repair. is he lible?.

in CA, 1 year SOL, if you signed some paperwork for the repair, could argue it was a contract, then a 3 or 4 year SOL (statute of limitations) And if you go to small claims, the whole cousins friend part is a waste. Could have bought it from Ed McMahon, it does not matter. Be to the point.

Your comprehensive insurance should cover vandalism. Call your agent.

Do you think a child care business in the mall would be very profitable? -

The center would allow you to shop in peace, or leave the mall and do what ever you had to do. You would be charged about $5-$8 and hour. You would also have the option of purchasing snacks or bringing in your own. The staff would all be certified cpr adults.

i like your idea....it would certainly be very profitable..just take care u have least competition...having the place well lighted and if the place smells nice...it would be excellent for your business.this way if the child is left with u and then taken home,the atmosphere outside will disturb him and he will ask 4 more time at your place.this kinda business definitely spreads by word of mouth.thanks for asking....hope this helps

It sounds like a great idea. As far as whether or not it would be profitable here are some things to consider. Rent in a mall is very high. Most states have laws requiriing you to have so many adults for each child. Without knowing how many children you will have each day it would be tough to tell how many employees you would need, you would need to schedule extra to be on the safe side. If your state s ratio is 1 cartaker per 5 children you will need to make sure that 5 children bring in enough to pay that care taker, benefits and payroll taxes and also leave enough for overhead and profit.If you can make the numbers work out it sounds like a great idea and something you d definitely want to franchise in every decent sized mall in the country.

It could be but usually malls are high rent. If you can keep that down I am sure you could build a decent business plan to see how it would work out. Just be aware you are going to need a sure fire means of tracking parent with child and being able to contact the parent in case of an emergency while in your care. Good luck and make sure you think all the problems through. Hope this helps get you started

What kind of buisness can I make? -

Im 11 years old and I want to make a buisness. I can knit,(not well) cook( better than I can knit) and sew(a little). I dont like walking dogs. My mom didnt make me do this so please do not say why does your mom make you do this any way? Jennessa

Do what you like the best and sell it to friends and tell your friends to tell other people, the word will get out. Don t charge too much, this time of year you can make a little money making cookies or candy and put up ads at the laundry mat possibly.

always start with what you are passionate about and the rest will follow. Remember that in order to make money you have to give value first. For example, I m starting a baking business, but I know that the first few weeks I m going to be giving away a lot of product as a show of appreciation to potential customers. Also remember, first get good at the product, then follow up with marketing. Marketing is going to be what makes you money. I ve posted a website below thats a good place to start. Even if you don t understand everything just keep studying. Good Luck!

Did anyone sign up for the google post online jobs.... is it legit/? -

Yes, there are lots of scammers using Google to make it seem as if there was some kind of connection - which there isn t.In fact, Google is so sick of these scams that they are suing some of them to try and maintain their reputation.

They re not legit, and they have NOTHING to do with Google. The scammers are just using Google s name so naive people will THINK they re legit.

What kind of company have I got then? -

I know this sounds crazy, but I ve just registered my own Limited company, and although I do now what kinds of services I provide, I have no clue what that makes my company. Is it a public relations company? A web design company? An advertising agency? Anything else?I d love it if, after checking out this list of what I do, you could give me an indication what kind of company that makes me.Here s what I plan to offer as services:- Building web presences for companies and individuals (websites, blogs, articles, reviews, translations, CVs, images, portfolios)- helping solve problems by acting as a think tank which writes proposals for strategies and systems to be implemented, designs concepts for products and services, and conducts polls and surveys.That s it in a nutshell. But where should I advertise in the Yellow Pages? What does all that make me?Thanks for your help.

You could package yourself as a marketing company. ...I would recommend not ever advertising in the Yellow Pages. EVER. It doesn t work....at all.You may consider getting a free alphabetical listing, for phone number purposes, but an actual advertisement is a waste of money. No one reads the yellow pages anymore...they look in their mailbox and they go online. Those two methods of advertising are superior to everything else in existence...by leaps and bounds.

What are the biggest 5 questions people ask a website designer before hiring him or her? -

If you were a small or medium sized business, what are the main 5 questions on your head before choosing a certain website designer?

This really needs a little more clarification: 1. Are you hiring a single person, or a studio? 2. Are they designing the site only, are they developing only, or are they doing both? 3. Are they simply making a design for a template (will need minimal development)?4. Are you doing e-commerce (selling things online)?All of these will determine the core questions you should ask. I await your edits to your question : )OK, a lot better knowing what s going on. 1. You definitely need to see a portfolio, and since this person is both designing and developing, you need him to show you a couple of live sites that he has done. After the initial interview, click through those sites he did and make sure everything works and looks good. (Gonna use masculine voice when referring to the designer, it s just easier. Don t mean to offend).2. Ask what his process is for doing sites--from initial brainstorming and sketches all the way to launch. *follow-up with asking how long it takes to build a site like the one you want. *follow-up the above question by asking how many projects he works on at one time (this will let you know how accessible he is, and how easy he can deal with unexpected problems, additions, or changes).3. Ask what his policy on changes is. Every web site project (in my experience) has at LEAST one change. Usually designers will include -- rounds of changes if they are charging you a fixed price and are experienced. Changes can be a BIG point of contention, so get it straight early.4. Ask what his solution for managing the site post-launch is. Does he include a CMS (content management system) for you? Does he charge you his hourly rate to work on it? Does he charge you a reduced rate?5. Ask why you should hire him over another designer or studio. (If the answer is ONLY that he is cheaper, be careful, this means he doesn t feel like he specializes in anything).General Tips:-NEVER be the first one to name a price. If you offer low they will bump you up, if you offer high, they will not bump you down.-Do not ask leading questions (questions that have an obvious right answer). You are setting yourself up to have him fudge on the truth. Make him talk a lot. A really good designer will answer most of your questions above before you ask them.Hope this helps!

I suggest the following question before hiring a web designer.1. you need to see a portofolio.( what is the best website done and why?) 2. check references 3. Give them a brief description of what you re trying to achieve and let him/her explain you how to get there.4. How long will lit take to complete the project?5. Does he take care of the website marketing or not?

How did Martha Stewart get to where she is now with her show and all? Also how much money does she make? I wan? -

How did Martha Stewart get to where she is now with her show and all?Also how much money does she make? I want my own crafts show someday. I have plenty of ideas for crafts and food dishes.

She was a successful caterer in Westport, Connecticut. Julia Child invited her on to Julia s Show.The rest is history.

You must need a part time job..

I need advice!! well, and help...? -

ok so my mom was renting our house and she left some stuff of ours in there like a big tv washing machine and things like that, so they had to pay rent and well my mom waited i told her to go but nobody listens to a kid or teen and so now my mom went and they left with out paying the rent and with all our stuff what should we do? how can we figure out were they went? im so mad right now! aaaaah! please help!

They stole items from the house - that is a police matter, and your mother should contact the police and file a report. If your mom had insurance, the insurance might cover the loss of the items, so she should review the policy to see how to make a claim or to talk with her insurance agent. As for the rent, you can see if they filed a change of address notice at the post office.

If she had a contract she could take them to small claims court, all she has to do is file,and the court system will eventually find them. If she rented it with no contract, no deposit, then its a live and learn situation.

small claims court seems the best way to go and also filing a police report. best of luck

Whats the best buisness...........? -

My Mom is thinkin bout getting into a buisness on the computer, ya know, like one of those home computer buisness courses things. What s the best course to take or go through to learn such stuff?

Are you talking about taking classes on line or business on line ... taking classes is getting to be pretty easy and, in some cases, a better way to learn some things.On line businesses ... very hard thing to find ones that are for real. People are getting scammed all over the place. One thing about on line crooks ... they can disappear in the blink of an eye and you re out everything. The best advice I can give is don t give into any sales pitch ... if they say you need to send THEM money ... don t because they are bogus ... none of the legit things on the net ask you for any money ... none of them. That s where most go wrong ... they fall for a great story and get screwed.In the end all I can say is be wary my friend ... and as always ...May The Force Be With You ....

Looking to make some serious money? Join a powerful team with a company that is red hot. Turn (20 bucks) yes $20.00 into 1000 in one week this is one of the most fastest growing programs on the net get in and see how easy the money flows in. I ask that you watch the video and decide for oneself. This is one you dont want to pass on its a nobrainer

real estate because the stock market is little by little going up and of the dow jones going up and so is the job economy going to have over 100,000 jobs soon for everyones etc. etc. etc.

hello! i suggest you to check this program out www.profitby2.infothey offer free training for those who joins and its free to join right now!if you have any questions just email me at jtloa05@yahoo.comgoodluck to you guys!joel

I advise you to learn some thing about international trade and Electronic commerce. At the beginning , to know the business operation like Sales on Ebay.Good luck, my friend~

One of my aunt s friends took the medical transcription course. I don t think she is getting rich but she s got a job and she does it from home.

I m trying to start my own online retail business. For now I m just going to start out making t-shirts. They will be customizable, different colors, styles, logos/texts, and sizes. My biggest problem is knowing how much inventory I will need to get this going. How can I determine how many of each color/size/style shirts to get? I m just in the planning stages right now. I figure it will take me a few months to get my website up and running for business. But, I figure I should start with a month s supply of inventory. Is this a good idea? Should I have more than a month s supply of inventory? Or less? How do I determine what a month s supply of inventory should consist of? Please give me an tips/suggestions/advice you may have.

well here ya go if u hav a little bro or sister u could have them do a lemonade stand with u and people. more likely to buy if there are cute little kids:) now that still won t be enough so....hmmm if u have some pretty dumb kids or young kids try selling like balloons for like a buck each and trust me some people r dumb enough to buy one. what I do sometimes is buy something new and sell it to someone and say it cost more then the price so yeah that s all I have srry:) ~Andrew~

Work and travel process, how do people make money from it? -

There are certain people that work with foreign travel agencies, what they do is lets say they live in the U.S, they talk to businesses and hotels and try to find job for work and travel students. This seems like a nice on the side job to me. Can anyone explain the process to me. Do i need an office to start this?

Cant get my Samsung ER-4915 out of quot;CLOSEDquot; mode, help!? -

Clerk accidentaly hit something that put the cash register in closed mode. Now we cvant get it out!

Take it to a technician, he ll know what to do.

Is the MLM company Shop to Earn/Shop to Earth a scam? -

I don t think it s a scam, but I am a bit weary of them because it s really tough to find out any details about the company itself. I m not to fond of the binary comp plan either. There are similar free sites like Blastoff Network where you can recruit others and earn from their shopping. They don t have the holistic products that Shop to Earn has, but the major national retailers are the same. Although I don t think they are a scam I know there are much better network marketing opportunities available.

Which name do you like most for my company? -

small business importing designer diaper bags and accessories...a. LullabyJaneb. Style Icing

A, Lullaby Jane. It has a nice personal touch to it.

Lullaby Jane is much better than the second option. Style Icing says nothing about babies, and the ice in Icing sounds cold, brittle - not warm and fuzzy. You want a name that consumers can resonate to, and will in some way associate with babies, and a lullaby falls into that category, although it makes me think more of sleepwear and cradles than diapers. Maybe look for a third option.

Definitely LullabyJane! It gives an indication of what type of merchandise you are selling since lullabyes are usually linked to babies. Good luck with your business, it sounds like a great idea!

I think LullabyJane would be best because if you name it Style Icing people might think it has cosmetics and assesories in it. Also LullabyJane is really cute!

If I sell an item on ebay, and then give a refund (with paypal), do I get my Final Value Fee back? -

Partial refunds cannot be used with a FVF credit.If you have to give a full refund (remember to use the refund button so you get your paypal fees back), you have 2 choices:mutually agreed to cancel that requires the buyer to agree before you get the credit--so educate them first.unpaid item dispute...this doesn t require the buyer to agree but dings thim if it s isn t their fault.

No, you would have to file a claim through eBay and the buyer may get a penalty in order to get the FVF back

Is it true that one can genuinely make money online without having to market services or products? -

Is it true that one can genuinely make money online without having to market services or products? Can anyone tell me the various ways money is being made online?

You can only obtain legitimate work from home positions from brick and mortar companies. You want to send your resume out to companies hiring for positions you are qualified for, but include in your resume that you have a home office and you wish to work remotely. Include how you have your home office set up and what equipment you already have in order for you to perform your job. These jobs are just going to advertised as jobs, they would not promote them as work at home because they would hear from too many unqualified people.

Yes it is true and you can do it for FREE. Never pay money for this at all.YOU cannot GET a JOB online ! UNLESS YOUR willing to perform a task and that person pays YOU for doing that JOB !However YOU can join a Business and YOUR Job is to apply YOURSELF and do what they teach YOU to DO !BUT DO NOT spend MONEY to JOIN any such company ! Many are FREE and NO cost to JOIN and NO fees TO pay ever !YOUR only cost factor would be advertising and getting a website hosted and domain name! BUT many legit online biz s will provide with all the tools YOU need for FREE !EVEN if YOU cant make a website or BLOG they create one for YOU Because they only Make MONEY when YOU make MONEY ! Then YOU get duplication from a simple system for sucess TO teach YOUR people to DUPLICATE what YOU were taught to DO !THAT S YOUR JOB to Mentor YOUR people or GET them active with the training calls and support team as YOU guide them along !HEY I been doing this FOR Years 11 years now at home !

You ve got a LOT of spam here - be careful what links you click on; most will just be scams but some can have malware which is really, really bad for your computer.If you enjoy writing there is some OK money in it so long as you don t mind putting in a little bit of time each day, mostly because regularly updated blogs get a lot of love from search engines, so you don t have to promote them - just put ads on the page. (Adwords of ads from Yahoo s Publisher Network.)Link in source has a few articles on blogging, getting traffic effortlessly and other free money making tips. (Don t worry, it doesn t want you to buy anything or sign up for anything.)

If you re looking for a work from home JOB (not a home based business), there are lots of companies who hire for call center type positions. And don t listen to the nay-sayers who say work from home and telecommuting jobs are all scams or that there aren t real jobs. There are. You just have to know where to look and how to avoid the scams. See the site in the source for more information

(stuff like ipods and video games or anything else u can think of so u should give it a try :) and Fyi ,its one of the Best money making sites out there. btw im 15

Yes I believe it is possible. I have recently checked out a site called CASH CRATE .com . It seems legitimate. Although I guess we ll have to wait until the January to see if I get a check ;) You won t be making too much but it will put some extra money in your pocket by taking surveys and filling out offers. You can start here: http://www.CASH CRATE.com/1740017 To get things done faster watch this tutorial on how to automatically fill out the surveys (in 60 seconds or less): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMLQRH1WiSIIf done right you should be able to make 50 cents a minute which, when figured, is approximately $30 an hour!(They are blocking the site with asterisks, considering it spam perhaps? Be sure to type it in to the url bar instead of clicking the horribly jacked link :) )Happy money making!

Yup, a lot of people do. The main way is to do surveys and paid offer sites. Another great way is to get refferalls to the survey and paid offer sites you signed up for. (Which just about every answer is going to have at least one refferal link in it, be kind and click it when you sign up ;) )Yes, even I, am going to give you some referral links. The sites are all great though. Good luck making money online. :DSaynationhttp://www.saynation.com/Portal/?RP=Regi�� Swagbucks http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/MaidenOfT�� Prizerebelhttp://www.prizerebel.com/index.php?r=23�� GlobalTestMarkethttp://globaltestmarket.com/ E-pollhttp://www.epollsurveys.com/epoll/client�� Warning signs it s a scam:-You have to pay to sign up, or complete surveys/offers -They promise impossible rewards(make $10000 instantly or test and keep a dell laptop) -They ask for personal information(except for your address so they can send you your reward, and maybe your phone number, which shouldn t be required) -They have advertisements on their site.(Paid offer sites, like prizerebel or cashcrate are an exception) For reviews of the above sites, please consult http://www.thefreebieduck.wordpress.com

Yes, It is possible. I personally do it with just google adsense. I learned the possible ways from this free report I read. You can get this free report here http://ellejohnson.weebly.com/

A person can make money online, and there are a few different ways to do so. I have been doing this myself, and I ve designed a few websites to explain to others, how they can do it too.
