Changing ebay auction length? please answer? -

i mistakenly listed my item for 3 day instead of 1. people already began bidding so i can t change it. is there a way to let people know that its a one day auction so they will bid on it, and then end at the end of the day/. like putting it in the subtitle or anything else

You have 2 choicesCancel the bids and relist at 1 dayOr add to your description (revise listing) that at such and such time you will end to the highest bidder, however the bidding may not go as high as you would like as some potential bidders will think there are still 2 days left to bidI think the first is the best option

I need some serious advice on my family small business? -

my Dad owns it and I run it with his help. He is very ill right now and not sure the prognosis yet or time he will be able, IF EVER, to come back and do his part. Been at it over 25 years and I am beside myself with fear and not knowing what to do? He did all the taxes and major decision making. Business is slow too and we are struggling on top of his illness.Any advice or calming words would sure help me at this time....Thanks.

Best wishes and luck to you and your family. While at times the world can seem to be a place where one s faith in oneself and family can be severely challenged, and faith in God, whatever his name may be, is tested, just keep in mind, it is only a test. You are still you, and you must keep the faith that things will work out, and you are meant to learn more about yourself and others from each test. May you persevere and triumph. You must have learned a LOT during these years you worked at it. You have to pick up the reins and keep it going. When in doubt, just think, What would he have done? If you are not too sure, ask around. Ask for mentor organizations like business incubators or org like SCORE in your area for help as well. Ask your dad where the stuff are and get up to speed. Good luck, and Godspeed.

Hi good morning and sorry to here this about your dad.Taxes are easy to handle through a software or a low cost monthly accountant so this is not an issue just do not let taxes lapse it is hard and large penalties can compound making this a tax nightmare.What is the business you are in? Small or not you are more then likely a focused business on a particular specialty and with 25 years of doing this you should be fearless about making major decisions but you should seek advice from the SBA Small Business Administration if you live in the USA?There is a mentor program where you can also get advice before making large decisions about the business that might cause more harm then good.The best thing about making large business discussions os to never make them without planning and a thought about the long term effects (long term meaning 1 year to 5 years).

First you need to ask Dad what he wants done with the business in the event he can not return. Be brave and have the conversation. This is the proper Business thing to do.Second, find some assistance in the area your Dad handled. There is a group of retired businesspeople who can help. The name of the organization is SCORE. Do some research and find the chapter closest to you.Third, ask yourself if you want to keep the business once Dad is out of the picture or would you rather close that chapter of your life? Knowing this answer will determine the steps you take in the not too distant future.Be strong.

How to find out how to charge for litiagtion work, what is fair,? -

If someone wants you to go out of state to figure out what was done wrong if any thing, got to be a rate chart some where,

I used to do occasional work like that in my past consulting practice,Orm129.Usually the fees are an hourly rate plus expenses. Chances are, you won t know exactly how long it will take you until you get there and start to actually assess the situation. Therefore an hourly rate is the fairest to all concerned.Don t forget to charge for any research you have to do as well. (You might reduce your hourly rate for research time - or maybe not - that s up to you.)I d also strongly recommend that you get a written agreement on your fees and a retainer upfront. (The amount of the retainer is usually credited toward your total fee.)Finally, if the case does end up in court, you ll likely be called to testify. Rates for testifying are half again to double your normal hourly rates.Good luck and I d be happy to hear how you make out.

Whats the best social media approach to gaining ground for a new business? -

Enter more detail here (Optional)

Dare I say... all. In fact, I ve been working on this very thing for a business I m launching in February. In fact, I would argue that social networks are the best thing to have happened to the small-business world because this form of communication is cheap and wonderfully targeted.Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace and Twitter, among others, allow you to spread messages without spending a penny (except your time, and I m not underplaying that). My suggestion is to start with the basics: Create a personal account on Facebook and then a fan page. Begin by testing such things as coupons, special offers for friends , etc. You can do similar marketing on Twitter, targeting those who are following you. You ll find that each social network has its own culture: MySpace is great for music and the arts; LinkedIn is better for business services than products; Facebook requires some care and feeding to stand out in the clutter; Twitter can be very noisy. As you spend more time with them, you ll be able to test which services work best for you.I find that one of the best ways to use any social network is for you to provide information to your followers or friends. Presumably, if you are starting a new business, you have some expertise in that area; help people understand different aspects of the industry or the service. For instance, if you are opening a muffler shop, you might create a blog (distributed across the social networks, of course) about car emissions, CAFE standards, costs of repairs at different stages, hot new cars, etc. Have fun with it, and you ll find that your potential friends and customers will engage with you.One note: These take a bit of time to build properly, so start several months early, if possible.

More traffic, more income possibilities. Put an add on facebook and create a business profile. There are 200mil members. Thats a great start.... If Honda is doing it and they have had the number one selling car in its class for years I think you can learn something from that. Use facebook advertoising money and recognition to your advantage...Good luck..

there s no easy way, Just jump right in and type, type away, content is king there as well.

Advice on starting Graphic Design business, freelance.? -

Hi everbody,I m a complete newbie to business, so please bear with me.I ve just completed a graphic design course at college, and am hoping to start my own freelance business.The thing is, as I say, I m completely new to this field. I d like some advice with someone with experience.What s my first steps. I ve designed a company logo, I ve got the company name sorted. I ve even designed a proposal letter to send out to potential clients. But I figure I need to cover the legal side of things, like registering the business etc.I ve also joined the Business Link mailing list, which should provide me with some information.Can anyone lend a helpful hand?ThanksLuke

Hi Luke - Generally, businesses are required to get a business license to ensure that they are complying with government regulations. Licensing requirements will depend on which city/county/state your business is located in.Business.gov can provide information for your local area and type of business at their website. You can enter your zip code and business type, and you ll receive information on licensing requirements as well as permits, tax documentation.You ll also want to register your business name with the County Clerk s Office. Contact your county for forms and instructions.You ve done a good job so far. Just so you know you re covering your bases, I suggest picking up a How to Start a Small Business type book at your local library or bookstore. These usually cover lots of different important topics, including legal and tax information, and will probably answer many question before you know to ask them.A good book at Amazon: Working for Yourself: Law Taxes for Independent Contractors, Freelancers and Consultants Finding clients: You can list your graphic design services and find freelance work at a website called eLance.http://www.elance.com
