I want to start a competitive fight club were people fight to a cash prize using semi safe weapons.? -

The idea is draw out a league were everybody fights 3 times against somebody and eventually it will come down to one person being the winner and he gets a cash prize from like fourth or a half of the entry fees. I think it will have mass appeal and I already have rules about what is classified a kill shot and such what. but how do I get it started cuz I don t have a clue??By safe I mean padded weapons like a padded sword or a padded axe etc, but don t get me wrong there will still most likely be bruising and blood. What do I have to do to get this started?

Sorry. The first rule of Fight Club is, you do not talk about Fight Club.

What to open a child care busniess. Need some input.? -

So me and my wife want to open an childcare business at home. I want to be able to keep track of business speading - food, toys, gas (transportation), etc.... What is a good software to use? Thanks for reading my question.

You could use something like Excel or Open office if you just need a spreadsheet to track expenses. If you need an accounting program you can try: http://www.gnucash.org/ for a free one. Quickbooks, Microsoft Accounting, and Peachtree are the most popular paid software for small businesses.Personally, I recommend avoiding quickbooks or peachtree because once you start using them, it s almost impossible to stop.

How do i get into selling monogrammed items? -

I know you need an actual monogram machine for putting initials and such on bags and things but where do you get the items like the clipboards, koozies, keychains, and cups? I d like to get into a business of this sort and I have no idea where to start! Someone please help =)

Is Melaleuca a scam or a good opportunity? -

Tori has a valid point in her opinion but I m not sure of what her standpoint was on her background with the company products or the compensation plan. I started as a customer for the value and quality of the products and I began marketing their products/membership enrollment by sharing the same value myself and many others were experiencing with Melaleuca. Just as if you had eaten a meal at a quality restaurant or seen a fantastic movie and told someone else about it, that does not mean you are selling the meal or the movie. After all, have either of these entities ever sent you a check for sending their venue business?? Nevertheless, I continue to share with everyone I know the environmentally friendly products that make a big difference for the future of my children and at the end of every month my family receives a commission check from Melaleuca as a thank you for the referrals of customers who choose to shop with them as a result, you just can beat that; I ve never received a check from any of those corporations that I sent people to buy products from or have spent tens of thousands at myself. As I am a fully trained Eco-Consultant I pride myself on knowing what products will and will not take away from the quality of life for my family and I will always try to share knowledge with others who indeed are seeking a higher quality of life through their buying power and business ventures. I encourage you to do your due diligence in making any business decision, but I can assure you that I have done mine and for me there is no better company out there offering such an outstanding opportunity. If I can help you in any way with questions concerning Melaleuca and enrolling from the comfort of your own home, please don t hesitate to ask. The company is offering an awesome enrollment special until the 22nd so let me know when your ready to start saving money on great products with a great company. Christian email: acd@sc.rr.com

Any opportunity can be a good one if it is the right opportunity for you. When considering any business, it helps to find a company and products that you will use yourself and be able to talk enthusiastically about to market to others. Check out the compensation plan and see if the profit margin/commission you will earn will provide the income you want within 3 to 5 years. How many items will you need to sell each month to reach that goal and is it realistic?I know that Melaleuca prides itself on promoting the idea that there is no selling involved, but that seems misleading. With any business, you must market (AKA sell ) and promote products or services by advertising or telling people about them. To make money in any business, someone must buy something, so if you are telling or sharing information with people about a product and you earn money when someone you talked to makes a purchase I think most people would consider it selling .You may also want to consider if the marketing methods allowed will fit what you want to do to create your customer base. Melaleuca used to be very restrictive in the marketing methods they would allow. They may have loosened up a bit. Personally, I was put off by having such limited options and by having everything so mysterious and secret.Good luck no matter what you decide to do.

How much money do you really make as a sole proprietor? -

What percentage of money do you give up when owning a sole proprietorship business?Isn t there an average number? Like, isn t Fed taxes 25%, state 5%, FICA 15%.Does that mean for every 100 dollars you make you really only make 60? (100-40)

You only make about 8 percent if you are lucky.

What are restaurant expenses as a percentage of the total? -

For example, on an average, how much of a percentage would a restaurant give as taxes, or for labor, or food costs. I m trying to do a paper on the economic prospects of retailer s co-ops which operate like franchises.

I ve asked the proprietors of good restaurants. They say about 20%. Franchises may have different numbers. This is the kind of research you would be well advised to do in person.

What are some stores essential to small towns? -

I m writing about a small town and I wanted to know what types of stores small towns usually have.

Walgreens/rite aid drugstoreBakeryVariety store (small mom and pop stores that carry a bit of everything)DinerLocal chain grocery store (Aldi s, piggly wigglys, HEB, Giant Eagle)Hardware storeBankLaundromatAs for specific names for these stores, they usually have names with the name of the town in them or the name of a person, like Bellevue Hardware, Mercer s grocery, May s diner, etc

The same stores every other town has. Banks, food stores, jewelry stores, laundromats, etc.

In Texas, they all have a Dairy Queen.

Should I start a new account to sell on Ebay? -

I have decided that after buying on Ebay for several years, I now want to start selling on it. I have an excellent buying record, so I was wondering if it would be better to simply use my current account to sell, or should I start a new one to do so? The reason I ask is because I don t want to ruin my current account if I run into a buyer that s difficult and leaves negative feedback out of spite. I hear that Ebay favors buyers much more these days, which is unfortunate, because I think it should be an even playing field for both. What do you guys think?

I think you should use your current account as you have already established yourself in the ebay world lol IYKWIM. A lot of buyers tend to steer clear of newbie sellers. Yeah its possible to get a loser to neg you for fun but one neg will not stop people from buying from you especially if they can see that the buyer is in the wrong.I buy sell on the one account havent had any dramas. touches wood

Definitely use your current account. Buyers make purchases based on your record. How often do you purchase from someone who has less than 10 or so feedback remarks? It takes awhile to accumulate the feedback remarks as a seller. Plus if you have excellent feedback, then no worries. You should have no problem selling right away!

Mortgages for Guest Houses / Bamp;B / Small Hotels? -

I am working on realising my lifetime ambition to run a small guest house in the West Country. I currently work as a self employed business consultant for the licensed economy so could be based from anywhere in the UK to continue this. I have 2 houses with mortgages (equity of about ��80k) so although not a good time to sell, it is a good time to buy, being able to take advantage of lower prices and also to make sure that completion takes place before the start of the 2010 season. Does anyone have any advice on how to make this happen without finding 30% cash deposits?No offence - but if you do not have any experience or professional advice to offer please do not respond!

Hello PatI m not sure how you can make this happen without a 30% deposit. I ve just gone through my latest copy of Bed and Breakfast News, for which I write a regular column, but there are no adverts for ways to finance your guest house.As you ve been running a business, it s possibly worth talking to your bank business manager to find out the best way of doing this. They should be able to advise you on a business mortgage. We looked into this a few years ago when we were considering increasing our property portfolio.The other people to sound out about this are your local Business Link. They have a wealth of information on sources of finance other than the obvious choices.You may be able to use the equity from your properties as a deposit but that would mean remortgaging them as well.Make sure that you will have enough hours in the day to run your B B as well as your consultancy. From 0700 to 1200/1300, depending on the size of your guest house, you ll be tied up on the premises. Afternoons are split between cash and carry runs and guests checking in and, if you re lucky, you ll have the evenings off but you need to be available to take booking enquiries.Good luck!Rosemary

Does anyone have any information on how I can set up a Van Hire Business? -

Hi,(a) I would like to set up a VAN HIRE business in my local area in England.(b) Essentially I am looking for ANY help or INFO from anyone who knows what steps I should take(c) Has anyone ever set-up a business before, where they can share some good tips(d) What should I be scared or cautious of(e) Should I consider a Business Partner or go it aloneIn the first instance, thank you for reading my questionAnd more importantly if you have ANY ADVICE, pleasescribble away, since everything useful is seriously appreciatedthank you sincerely ... in advance

Speak to your local Business Link. They provide free help and advice on starting in business. They also have industry specific information which could help you a lot.Think very carefully about taking on a business partner. If you feel there s more work than you can handle, take on someone on a part-time basis or bring someone in as a freelance who is skilled in the gaps in your expertise.Why do you want to set up a van hire business? Who else in your area does something similar? Why should people choose your service rather than theirs? Is there enough trade to support another van hire business? These are the sorts of questions that you need to answer to put together a plan for your business. Again, Business Link is very good on helping with the structure of your plan so that you cover everything. There also good on sources of finance, if you don t have enough to start with.Be prepared to work long hours to get your business off the ground. Think about what changes you ll have to make in your life to do so and consider who else will be affected by your new status. It can take over your whole life. I know this from personal experience!Good luck!

BUSINESS HELP PLEASE 5TH TIME ASKED !? -

i want to start a business maybe on clothes i want to import clothes from india and then sell them online a bit like they have done here http://www.rupalionline.com But im not quite sure how to i know how to get the clothes and were from and i also know how to make the website for them and that butt how much would it cost and stuff ?also what other options do i have if i want to start doing a business becuase at the moment i am in very much need of money

before anyone starts a business the first thing they have to do is a professional Business Planthats where you write down your costs(stock ,website postgae and any other costs), your possible customers, your plans and details of your competitorsYou also need to identify how much money you are prepared to put into the business as no lender will give you any money unless you also put in a substantial deposit of your own

without doing rather extensive research on UNMET NEEDSwherever you want to do biz, you are playing craps with your $if you have $ to throw away, start any biz.if you want to earn $, find UNMET needs and satisfy thembetter than anyone else in your area.find things that EXCITE YOU.

www.Alibaba.com has wholesale items you can import, bear in mind your money will be tied up in stock. Wouldn t it be better to earn money with little investment? If you re just starting out you should test the market by selling a few items, you buy items from shops or online and sell them for more.http://Acme-People-Search.com/1257083242��

What are some good sites to make money online? -

http://www.athomeopps.com will give you a bunch of different companies that pay people to work from home

makiing money on the internet is very hard as its a very saturated market, i found a site (which is getting me easy cash) which addresses an untapped market, cell phone advertising, give it a read an see what you think, it has really impresse me so far.

Hi. There are many sites to make money from such as cash crate, treasure trooper, global domains international, team success builder ,etc. I have been a member of all these sites and i struggled to earn over $50 a month. However i joined a new website, it is designed ingeniously by one of the worlds top online marketers in the world. I joined it 4 weeks ago and its amazing. Its free to join, and on November 7th you can decide if you want to upgrade your account or not. Trust me im about to get some massive commissions from this site on November 7th, and i have hardly put in any effort at all. It is an affiliate program, however its designed to provide you with massive spillover, and you only need 512 people signed up under you and you will be earning $2300 a month. And to be in profit all you need is 2 people under you. Remember its completely FREE at the moment, you could even just sign up and forget about it, and on November 7th, see how many people were put under you from spillover. Then you can decide if you want to upgrade your account or not. Its 100% legit, 100% Risk free, so why not give it a go? Im glad i did, i will definitly be upgrading on November 7th.Heres the link: http://www.twrpowersystem.com/aff/uid/twrelements_1

Create WebsitesI can��t tell you how many people have asked me to build them a website since I started this one a couple years ago. I am not seeking the work and people are requesting it, so if you do a little legwork and pursue small business owners, there is a lot of work available. Teens might be great for this, because they would be able to work for less than some higher end website developers, which would put them in the price range that it seems many small businesses are looking to spend.

There are many ways to make money online, just be careful of scams. Be sure to research anything before you do it.You may want to become an affiliate. This is a way of making money on commissions. Every product that is sold through one of your links will earn you a commission sale.Here are some places where you can become an affiliate:http://roselanding.com/affiliateshttp://clickbank.comhttp://bidvertiser.comhttps://affiliate-program.amazon.comhttps://www.google.com/adsenseYou could also make you own websites to generate an online cash flow. https://imi.infusionsoft.com/go/npc/a100�� is a website where you will be taught very thing you need to know about building websites and making money from them. I personally do this and the others above.

I ve tried just about every site out there and the best site that have actually paid me is,http://tu.nu/kWyNI ve already made $1000+ in cash prizes without spending a penny.*******US, UK, CANADA ONLY*******It��s free to join, they don t ask for your social security number, and you don t need a credit card like most other sites. You don t need to refer a single person in order to receive any of your prizes/payments. And most importantly, it s not a SCAM and I can prove it. But you can get paid by check, you can have the money sent instantly to your PayPal account ($1 min.), E-Gold account, Alert account, Liberty Reserve account, or you can spend your points that you earn to buy anything you want on Amazon. A few ways that you can earn points by completing offers, surveys, playing games or referring other people. But most of the offers are quick, very easy to do, and 100% Free. *******VERY IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ******* Your account will be blocked if you create multiple accounts or if you sign-in on another ip address. All of your Cash Points earned will be lost.STEPS FOR SIGNING UP1. Copy/Paste http://tu.nu/4a/11/ab2. Click on the banner that says, It s Fun and Free Sign Up. 3. Fill out the information with your valid name/address/email etc. (So that way they know where who to ship your prizes/payments. Once you re done they ll send you an email that you ll need to confirm in order to participate.4. Don t forget, you get 250 points for free!!! Use that 250 points to order the Dollar Prize for 144 points. This will verify your account and take you to the bronze level. Also, you should at least try one offer to show you that it really works!*****PROOF OF PAYMENTS*****http://prizesfromp2s.blogspot.com/

look, if you really want to earn online, you need to have determination (90%) and luck of about 10%. and the money flows.i personally had a success on this online survey site(not a scam since i had my first ever compensation 75$) a href= http://www.AWSurveys.com/HomeMain.�� src= http://www.AWSurveys.com/Pictures/A�� width= 600 height= 100 /a you might want to try it out. you could get 25$ right away after answering some 8 surveys. ^^ i wish you luck!!

I go on this website during my free times. You can earn e-gift cards for like Amazon.com or cash through Paypal, or other prizes they have. But the only website I know for sure that is legit is SwagBucks. They have many users and you ll never find anyone complaining of any scam and all. All you need to provide is your e-mail address and your name. You basically win these SwagBucks for searching and with those, you can redeem prizes they have there. It takes a while to get enough points (otherwise they d be out of business) but it s not hard and it s just for fun. (for me anyway) Sign up here if you re interested http://swagbucks.com/refer/300243 That is my referral link, I would greatly appreciate if you signed up under my account because then I can earn more for spreading the word~! If you don t feel comfortable about the legitimacy of this site, try searching on YahooAnswers if it is real. Every one of them will say so. Here are some tips that might be helpful so you are not lost at first http://postwhateverblog.blogspot.com/

You can write online for eHow!They pay per click/review/comment/rating per article. Sign up is free and there��s no download. For me writing an article take only 15 minutes, but to be fair for others it can take almost an hour. Reports of early earning ar low. Its unusual for anyone to make more than like 10 dollars their first month, but earnings after the first year are posted at 250-500 dollars a month (because articles never delete. So they accumulate, even if your article is only making like 10 cents a month)For more info on how to make earnings:http://www.ehow.com/how_5613975_amount-traffic-article.htmland if you do decide to sign up, add me as a friend!

I am a entrapanuer and look for invesmnents all the time recenlty I have found supercuts to be a great idea? -

In matters of renting a business? -

i have had new owners take over my job in the recent month or two...there had been an eviction notice on the door that employees seen, and his response to us is not to worry because hes not paying rent until the landlord (is that what theyre called for business property?) fixes a few things including a leaky roof and there is mice in the restaurant too...(gross i know)i dont believe is is the property owners responsibility since its a business but hopefully i am wrong whos responsibility is it to fix these problems in this occasionbusiness owner or property owner

Mice, well that s up to the business owner himself/herself not the building owner unless that s covered in the lease or the building is a multiple type of some form but only if more than a duplexLeaky roof seems to be the building owner s responsibility, however it could result in a health department vio or shutdown since it s a restaurant. My fix would be have it done, then sue the property owner for the amount if the initial request for repayment is refused! You cannot refuse to pay rent as that is a violation of the lease agreement in and of itself, and that eviction notice can be acted upon. This seems to be a job for...... LAWYERS! YAY! I know, but that s what they re for!

Management Question for Business Plan. What does this mean? -

The Question: List the duties and responsibilities of the principles, as well as reporting relationships.If this helps The Question Before It was: History Principles: Basically, why would the lenders be interested in investing in you and your idea. What is the combination of education and work related experience of those members operating the business? Why would they be a good investment?

It s asking who is going to do what, and who reports to whom.

Good name for a cleaning business (residential and businesses)? -

Trying to think of a name for a cleaning business that I m starting. My name is Carley and the name doesn t necessarily have to have my name in it, but it can. Any suggestions? Something professional and nice sounding.

Either you have not given enough information about your plan or you have not done your homework about your proposed business yet. Often your name falls out of your plan and research.Is it a residential cleaning or a commercial cleaning business? It makes a big difference. residential cleaning company names are usually more fun and whymsical (Merry Maids or Scrubbles) where commercial cleaners are more corporate sounding (SeviceMaster or ABM).So, decide your on the market as part of your strategy in formulating your business plan and your name will likely flow out of that work. Marketing and credibility are important. Very, very few do both (residential/commerical well as part of the same portfolio becuase they are just different animals.

What are the things one should keep in mind before starting any new business? -

Before starting any business, you should bear in mind, First, that you have enough knowledge and skills in the business you are planning to put up. Secondly, It is very important you have the necessary financial capability. These all depends on what kind of business . Lastly, you should put up a business that you like most . I mean where you will be contended Psychologically, emotionally and the financial reward will follow.

Most common mistake is not knowing your business. Not what the business sells or creates. The business of the business. You must do a business plan. Google business plan software there are alot out there. Businessplanpro.com comes up alot but like I said there are alot of them out there.Do a business plan outline first to see where your at as far the knowledge base of what your business will need, what it doesnt know, who exactly your selling to, and why they would want to buy it from you.http://www.business-plan.com/outline.htm��SBA ( Small Business Association)http://www.sba.gov/smallbusinessplanner/��

Location...location and location! Before you start any new business you should find that said business will be beneficiary to the area and if the location is right to bring in the big bucks for you!

The reality that you are most likely going to be in debt to someone or some institution. Also that you better have a stellar business plan when you go looking for credit.

Customer service is job 1. Listen to your customers, be available as owner/manager.

Does any one know of any legitimate work from home opportunities to suppliment my income? -

I have a full time job that I love (preschool teacher) but that doesn t pay very well, and I would like to supliment my income... I actually have been burned once already by trying a work at home scheme that ended up costing me thousands and making me no money. I was wondering if anyone knew of any legitimate work at home businesses -- ie: data entry, etc that could earn me some extra cash. I m not looking to make thousands a month, just some extra wiggle room in the budget. Thanks.

I know someone that just hired about 10 people to write articles of some sort. Apparently there s plenty of demand for writers. It seems like almost your field.

Actually almost all the work at home programs you see out there are legit, very few are actually scams. The only problem is with these work at home programs is that it is very hard to make any money unless you have the right training for it. I have been working from home for 2 years now and I have mastered it. If you are looking to start your own home business and make some money working from home I can help you step by step which is what you will need. I will get you in my business absolutely free and get you your own website which you can promote. I will teach you marketing skills you will need and walk you through everything in order to make money online. I only work with 5 people at a time. You can signup to work with me at http://www.trker.com/go/52362. I guarantee that I will help you make money in your first week working with me.

This should get you heading in the right direction. www.forthegoodofman.com it is exploring the legit work from home arena.-you may have to scroll down to the section where it talks about the legit work from home companies. :) enjoyit explores some ways to increase your income from home.you can check a few of them out there anyhow.

You can freelance write online, be a text guide, data entry[real, not that scammy stuff], website tester, call center virtual agent, transcription, etc.There are many real jobs u can work from home, and even part time since u already have another job.I found out about all of these from work at home forums like workplacelikehome.com. Also in the sources area is a link for a blog that posts work at home job leads everyday. Real ones that u can apply to like any other job.

I don t want to get flagged SOOOO, here is my website and you can look at it if you wish. I work part time (young kids at home) and make approx $600-$800 a month. If you want specific information, go to the contact me portion of the website and I will email you personally. I have been with this company for over 2 years, VERY legit and VERY well known. There are links about how the business works directly on the website. Hope this helpshttp://www.hostpassions.com

If you are looking for work from home that earn you long term income, You should have look this method. It will create very good income for you every months. You can get more information from link below.

I have heard of a few people doing medical transcription from home. The only thing to that is that you have to take training which will cost you some time and money. If you want to look more into it, you can view a demo of an online training course and get more info on the career here http://www.careerstep.com/wah/?uid=a1403

Look at this site http://shelling.web.officelive.com

I have been trying to find a way to make extra income for myself working from home and for quite some time I only came across sites that claimed to offer very profitable home jobs. Everytime I decided to subscribe to any of them and after doing a little research on the internet, it turned out that most of them were scams or ways to make just a little money while risking losing a lot. After days of searching and getting nowhere, I came across someone s review on making money from home that mentioned a site called Wealthy Affiliate . This site is like a university on Internet Marketing, but apart from that, it recommends legit sites offering jobs from home. Of course, I first did a research on Wealthy Affiliate, too (since they require a monthly/yearly membership), before becoming a member. Every review I read was positive and said they were really satisfied. In general, what they do is give you all the guidance, tools and information you need so as to become a successful Internet Marketer, starting from scratch. If you are not interested on Internet Marketing, they recommend sites that offer a variety of jobs from home (i.e. data entry, article writing, web design, translations etc). All of them are serious sites, well organized and trustworthy.So I became a Wealthy Affiliate member myself, but I m just starting to learn the moves...The membership costs around $39 a month and you can cancel it anytime you want. If you pay a one-year fee, you have a discount (I believe it goes down to $29 per month)Anyway, take a look for yourself here: http://www.wealthyaffiliate.com?a_aid=KOexgg7z��nd good luck!

Simply the fact that you said just a little extra money on the side. You can simply do ebay, but then again the fees are insane now. I mean you don t have to have the product, you can sell someones product and get a commission. You can try looking up for drop-shipping. You can sign up with click bank or commission junction and sell affiliate products, whether they be physical product or online products. I know many people have quit there job because of this. You can do survey, simply look up free survey on google and you will have plentyto sign up for. They should ALL be free to sign up for. You can make say $1 - 3 on average survey and sometimes even more depending on what type of survey you get. I did it the past, but have move on to better things. You can definately look for freelance job, where you do a task for someone and get paid. There are just way to many legitimate work at home opportunities out there to name it all. I myself have elimited most of the scams out there and started my own home based business. I too am a technician working full time and that definatley pays less than being a teacher and doing this business on the side. Maybe you like to get involve Simply come by and see if this can suppliment your income.

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.

FOR ALL THOSE WITH ASTHMA.....please help I need ideas!? -

I have just joined a group where we get ��4000 to start up a business idea. Mine is a really good looking inhaler cover where you buy one (or however many you want!) which has an awesome pattern on it and just get the cylinder refills after. It will be much better for the environment as we would all use a lot less plastic and the cover could even be made form recycled plastic itself. As an asthma sufferer myself, I am fed up of the boring square, blue or brown inhalers. I think I might base it on Puffins or something as I call it a puffer. lol. Could you give me any ideas for what the cover could look like or a business name???

i really do not care how it looks as long as i can breath.pretty puffers.happy inhalersbeautiful breathing...?

Well i do. Report Abuse

That s honestly a great idea. How cute! :) Pretty Puffers Little Puffins You could do things for young boys like soccer balls, football, etc. For girls and teens you could do polka dots, bright colors, c s to replicate Coach, initals. :)

holly s inhalers, take a puff and get the stuff

If I own 2 businesses, with one making $5,000 profit? -

and the other loses $4,000, then do I owe the IRS 15% self-employment taxes on the $5,000 profit, or just on $1,000 combined profit?

we own 7 different factories under 3 different company names.. all which are indepenant of each other even though we share one large office for all 3 as a headquarters .. we used to be able to right the loss from one off against another several years ago but now the laws have been changed and all the companies have to be seperate enties .. we cannot even transfer money from one to the other to help out in rough times .. any company trying to do this any more is asking for trouble with the irs ..keep them seperate

Good Fund raiser ideas for a new club? -

I m in my college s new Eco club..And we haven t done too well in our last couple of fund raising attempts.. We are trying to be successful while staying GREEN, and its backfired on us.At our last event, we sold beans, yea I know, and we barely sold 3 cups of beans =/Maybe were going about it the wrong way, but I m looking to try anything that can help this club survive!Maybe make an Organic Bake sale? Chemical Free Car Wash? Anything!? I really want to fund affordable trips, inform people about the environment, and plan events, but we can t if we don t have or earn enough cash...What are some good Fund Raising Ideas?Thank you!

Maybe you could sell seedlings in milk carton halves. Just buy an entire packet of seeds...sunflower, native plant, which ever, and then sell them once they start to sprout.

Client got away without paying us. It cheeses me off.? -

My husband did a $2500 job for a client who them went under. The thing is the parent company is still going strong and has a flashy website etc. It really upsets me. It is all with the company receivers now etc, but the chance of us getting anything is zero. Some other poor sole lost $20,000. What would you do apart from warn others about them? They are in another state.

Don t feel bad this world feels like everybody is out for their own. I had a company I put 2.6 years into building they owed me 8k likely 30k to date. We just move on we live and learn.

If you let it cheese you off too much, you re in the wrong line of work.I have a $6,500 debt to me that is more than 450 days old.I have an $8,000 debt to me that is 375 days old.

You could always try and submit your invoice to the parent company or one of it s subsidiaries Depending on how big they are they, they may have poor controls around approving invoices.

You could always sue them, but it s business, sometimes it happens.

Macys in NYC easy question? -

I m currently twenty years old with one year of retail experience. My last job was working at Calvin Klein. Now I plan on applying to Macy s in New York City. I send my application in and got dined. What exactly is Macy s looking for? I have the personality and looks to perform as a sale associate and experience. I am serious about getting this position. I need it. What can I do next time when I send in my application for the 2nd attempted?(Male)

Having worked in NYC myself for 10 years, and having come in from out of state...what I learned was that NY companies would prefer to hire people with New York experience.You may think to yourself...that is pretty arrogant of them....Let me set the record straight.....They are completely justified in that requisite...the reason is that many people go to NY and try to make it and they just don t have what it takes.NYC is a whole different level of playing field....You have to be top notch or you won t make it. If you are lucky enough to get in somewhere...you will either adapt quickly or you ll fail and probably have to move away. it is a tough city...but if you make it....the education you ll get being in that environment will give you a trmendous advantage if you ever move back to your hometown.Its just like that NY song says If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere ...that is absolutely dead on.Keep trying and good luck.

i send in my app and got DINED. What is dined? They took you to eat?or do you mean denied?to get hired, you need to have excellent English skills.and do not send anything in, visit them.......ask to talk to the HR depart andask what days of the week they interview.

How do people on ebay get thier cell phone ect. products to sell so cheap? -

I go on ebay and buy cell phone chargers and such and I just want to know where they get the stuff at and be able to sell it so cheap? Do they buy like thousands of dollars worth and make profit or how does this happen. I see that people from Hong Kong sell alot of things like this.

either buy in extremely large bulk or stolen goods - either way it makes it very difficult for the average person to make a buck

How to classify this worker? employee? Independent contractor etc..? -

We are in a dentistry business. We are planning to hire this person, a sort of billing agent or an specialist that calls and make appeal letters to insurances so we get paid pending completion of the requirements that insurance is requesting.She offered to come once a week for 4 hours to complete the job needed. She works independently but uses our computer to write the letters and emails and also uses the telephone to communicate to insurance companies.How should we classify this worker? An employee? An Independent contractor? What?Thank you for your help.

The employee is coming in to your office and using your computer and telephone. Since they re in your office, I presume it could be argued that they re being supervised by one of your staff. I d say that the person is an employee.Edit: It seems as though some of the answerers are confused. See the IRS link below with these two items: 5. If you have the right to control or direct not only what is to be done, but also how it is to be done, then your workers are most likely employees.6. If you can direct or control only the result of the work done -- and not the means and methods of accomplishing the result -- then your workers are probably independent contractors.

I would classify her as an independent contractor. As long as you don t dictate to her what hours she has to work. It s completely ok, that you agree together what hours she works.Also, she doesn t HAVE to use your computer telephone. She does this so she is not responsible for controlling the files out of the office.

Independent contractor. You just pay her and not withhold any taxes, and give her a Form 1099 at the end of the year. She is responsible for all taxes, self-employment tax, etc.

She could be either. I would check into which would be more beneficial to the business with taxes and liability.

Overhead cost - Accounting? -

Feeman Company uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. At the beginning of the year, the company estimated manufacturing overhead would be $150,000 and direct labor hours would be 10,000. The actual figures fo the year were $186,000 for manufacturing overhead and 12,000 direct labor hours. The cost records for the year will show:????I know the answer is Underapplied overhead of $6,000. I have no idea how they reach this answer. Can anyone help?

Use the actual figures.......they are the ones that count. $ 186,000You add up the gross sales.(186,000)Then you subtract the costs. ( Labor Material, etc.)( 12,000 for labor and 6,000 for rent, electricity bill, etc.)Thus, the costs you are going to subtract is 12, 000 + 6,000=18,000(Gross) (Cost)180, 000 - 18,000 is 90% profit. 180,000 - 18,000 = 162, 000 162, 000 is the profit....and 162,000 is 90% of the gross of 180,000 Underapplied means the same thing as not applied ..not applied are the 6,000 in other costs...in other words..they give the labor as: 12,000...the costs that are missing (underapplied) is 6,000.Learn that words like underapplied means the items that are not given...its like me using words, that only someone that took that class would know.SUMMARYThe cost records bottom line is they made 90% profit or $162,000.

Where is the best place to get items to sell on Ebay? -

Such as wholesalers or anything else you can provide.

You can find some excellent deals on Craigslist.org. Search the various product sections and also check the freebie section. Determine what the items are selling for on Ebay, and then make your offers at 30-50% below that to compensate for Ebay and PayPal fees.Another resource is Freecycle.org. Everything in the Freecycle.org network is free, but I will say it is frowned upon to get items from Freecycle.org and then sell them. If you do this, I would make sure you don t make it known what your intentions are.You can also frequent garage sales, flea markets, thrift stores, etc.If you re looking for wholesalers:www.alibaba.com

Best way to Mail 5000 Post Cards? -

We need to mail 5000 business post cards....Whats the best and cheapest way to do this?

Talk to your local postmaster. The post office has computer programs availableto help address mass mailing and you might get a deal on the postage rate.

Does Amazon Charge shipping per item, or the whole order? -

Okay I am going to order a few things from amazon. The shipping for each item is $2.98. I have about 7 items in my cart. Will it charge me $2.98 for each item. Or is the $2.98 the price for shipping the whole package.F.Y.I.-all my items are cheap, they are just cases. I also live in hawaii

The 1st poster is right.. there is another factor involved, are all of your items from the same supplier? If not, than it will definatly be $2.98 per item, as each item would be shipped seperately from a different location.When you order a lot of items from 1 supplier, there will be only 1 shipping fee because they can ship everything together.. this wouldn t be the case with Amazon, as they tailor to many, many different suppliers, including individuals that can sell their used items.

Amazon has an extensive table that shows you what exactly they charge for shipment. The charges vary by the product type. Please go to the website address given below for detailed information on shipping charges.The charges are by ITEM and per SHIPMENT. In other words, they charge a FLAT FEE ( Per Shipment amount) PLUS a per item fee for each ADDITIONAL item.Based on your example, assuming you are ordering jewelry, If you ordered 7 jewelry items @ $2.98 a piece, then your shipping charges would be $9.93 as shown below:Standard Per Shipment charge...................... $3.99$0.99 per each additional item: 6 x $0.99.......... $5.94Total Shipping Charges.................................�� $9.93

They are going to charge you by the weight of the box so it will probably be 2.98 an item. But seeing how you are getting them all together it may be a discount involved.

If you are buying used items from third party sellers, then you are charged shipping on each item.If you are buying them directly from Amazon, then you pay one shipping charge for all items.

How to use credit card on Paypal? -

I have already added my credit card as my backup funding. How do I use my credit card when making a purchase instead of Paypal automatically withdrawing the money from my bank account?

Don t ever give your credit card number to Paypal or anyone else. Always use a secure online account number for your credit card. Paypal is as irresponsible as anyone else would be with access to your money.

Before you make a purchase you are able to change from where you want to withdraw money, bank account or credit card. Just click on More Funding Options before you complete your order and it should be able to let you change it. Don t forget to add it first through PayPal or it won t show up as as an option. :)

EVERY time you make a purchase, you click the button that says you wish to use alternate funding.

How can I start my own clothing line?I cant sew or draw but i have a lot of great ideas? -

Single mum,there is a market for kids clothing in my country and i want to capitalize on it.I have no idea where to start or how much its going to cost me.If you have experience e-mail me @ trakim5@yahoo.com thanks

start reading at http://www.fashion-incubator.com/ esp. http://www.fashion-incubator.com/archive�� and http://www.fashion-incubator.com/categor��

Let s just think about this for a moment! If you can t draw then LEARN! Even if it is just to draw stick figures you have to have a way to show what your ideas will look like! You have to start out with a clothing line even if it is just one or 2 pieces to start with (there was one famous design line that first started with just 1 tee shirt as its first clothing line product).There is also something that I am trying to figure out here. Do you just want to present the ideas and then have someone else create the clothes? Then that is going to have to be some type of partnership kind of thing and you will have to have a partnership-type contract between the 2 of you.If you want to do the clothing line yourself then you really should start with a business plan. Basically you ll have to come up with the design, market it and show it to others and get buyers for it. There are also such things as investors and angel investors but you are going to have to convince them as to why they should invest their money with you.

Whats the difference in hardware needs between big business and small businesses? -

hardware like computers, telephones, fax machines...

a big business might have their own servers to run their websites on, big presentation screens, tons of networked computers, photocopiers, quality printers, etc etc

If your smart and your an online business, not much. They have huge servers, you can outsource servers for under $100 a month. You need professional telephone services get www.onebox.com. You need a professional address see www.HQ.com. You need a million dollar place to meet use www.HQ.com. If at home with the business write what you can off. Go to www.irs.com and ask an agent to send you in the mail ir direct yourself to the website to download what you can and cannot wrote off. You can 1099 your agents . Large corporations fill very large orders. So can you. Get a LOI (letter of intent) with full banking take it to and the bank that you have been using already that can be used (along with your satisfactory or great credit) as collateral. They will loan you the money for 30, 60, 90, or 120 days as long as you also have a one page business plan summary that explains in detail how your going to fill this order. Need live chat 24hrs online customer service use www.24-7intouch.com. Want expensive 4 color brochures and business stationary use www.stocklayouts.com. Need high end or semi high end things like office equiptment join a freecycle in your area. Otherwise use your credit (make sure it good) and fill out a Dell Premiere application and see how much credit you will get immediately. Also watch TV Shopping shows where they give you 3-6 payments to make on that item. Need a professional look shop at the local distressed assets company in your town. Marshals, Century21, Daffys, Filenes Basement, Burlington Coat Factory, etc etc. Even Walmart and Target. Need a great watch but a RENATO Beast from www.shopnbc.com or a RENATO Beauty for women. Very weighty substantial watches that wont break easily, look expensive, quality work, and will last a lifetime. Now often the only thing that stands apart are services. Outsource your services. You know a lawyer, guess what you now do legal consultations and have a Legal Dept . (Have a way for people to make appointments online and sync your lawyers schedule with the online one). You know a person that speaks 3 languages you now offer translation services and your business is Trilingual . (They scan and email the doc, you forward it to your friend, they type a translation, you accept payment, and they get emailed their doc translated). Etc etc etc. This isnt false advertising you have Outsourcing Services that work with companies in many industries . You think the BIG companies do everything ? NOT!Small business is responsible for 85% of USA income. Small business isnt small at all. The mom and pop stores, men in their garages and women at the kitchen table. Noone knows how big or small you are. All clients and customers care about is deliver on time what you promise in the most efficient, professional, and timely way with a smile. Period. Whats the difference? I dont know from where Im standing...

About as big as you can think of. A small business might ONLY need a cell phone to operate. Big businesses need entire infrastructures of IT and communication equipment worth MILLIONS.

Where can you get capital without any assets banks are a no go and the sba offers little help? -

I have a Business idea that will require about 500,000 to one million and at the moment have no assets no credit and no money? Of course it s impossible but even if i did have lets say good credit and 10,000 dollars it would still be impossible so what to do I want my Business to work so I can be free.Ive heard of angel investors but they want like 40 70% control and only invest in larger companies that have a track record this is insane the world we live in

Unfortunately that is the way it is. Because of all the unsecured loans that have been given out in the past, it has made it very difficult to fine money for businesses today. I own a company that invests into smaller businesses but the main thing I am looking for is, WHEN DO IT GET MONEY BACK. This is what anyone that is willing to invest is looking for. Unfortunately you may have a great idea but if someone has the money, they have the power. It is rear we invest in company do not take at min of 51%, this is protection against my money. On thing your may think of doing, if you are friendly with you bank - ask the bank manager if he knows of any angle investors, not all want an arm and leg - these are people that are willing to invest into things the bank may not be comfortable investing in. (They are usually friends with the bank and tell the bank to send people their way) This is how I started, and how I repay the people that helped me get to where I am today. The money you are asking for - is going towards buying equipment of inventory? Be very careful sending anyone your information or ideas - a confidentiality and nondisclosure should be signed first, even for free advise. Good Luck

We all have great ideas but unlike you, we don t expect someone else to take all the risk if it fails but none of the reward if it works.If your idea is so great, get your parents and friends to loan you the money and pay them a pittance if you are successful but lose all their money if you fail.

No, it s perfectly sane.You just feel entitled. Get over it.

How can I start my own plastic wholesale business? -

I want a plastic wholesale business. I just want to know:1. what are the basic requirements for it?2. Space area?3. Initial investment?4. What are the major plasic manufacturing companies?Any other relevant info is appreciated?

It all depends on where you are going to do it. You could do it in a cheaper country or a much more expensive country. Costs can vary widely, that part really can t be answered. As far as investment, its the same thing and this is what separates the people who fail from the people who succeed. I would first look at your plastic manufacturing companies. I would do a lot of researach, this isnt something that can just easily be answered, it all depends on a lot of things. Find your plastics wholesaler and then work from there and decide how much you can afford, and where your market is going to be, and how much you expect to make on that. Then you look at your expenses and look into housing and things like that.

Our salon has a credit card machine. Owner wants to charge us $1 per client + 5% of our tips. Is this normal? -

We have a credit card machine at our grooming salon. We work on straight commission and tips. There is no hourly wage. We earn a percentage of each dog that we groom. There is a tip line available on the credit card slip if clients feel that they want to leave a gratuity. Most of our customers do leave tips. The salon owner says that the machine and the tip line is costing her hundreds a month so she wants to have us give her $1 per client plus 5% of our tips. Is this normal at other pet grooming or human grooming salons? I know you can t give me an exact amount because it varies on the type of business, volume etc., but generally how much does the tip line cost and what is the average cost for a credit card machine per month?

Yeah, 5% is way too high - though it depends on the credit card that you re using -- I believe traditionally Amex takes the biggest percentage of each sale. There s also a rule, it was a MasterCard rule that you weren t allowed to charge customers more if they were charging. Now this doesn t apply here since you re not a customer, but the intent there is that they didn t want the use of a credit card to be perceived as a disadvantage compared to cash. In your boss s own way, that s what he s doing with you. I don t think it s specifically against their rules, but it goes against the intent.And as another poster suggested, it s not your fault people want to charge. It s your boss s decision to have the machine and he s done so because it s a sales advantage (or rather not having one would be a disadvantage).The $1 per client is bogus. Most POS vendors charge very little per month - if it s hundreds, they should find a different one. It s the percentage that s the big part, and if it s 5% it would only be because he has a bad credit rating or is considered a risk.

No, it is not really normal and is illegal in some states. Tell the owner that you are willing to renegotiate your contract but that what she is asking for is not reasonable.The credit card companies charge between 2-5% of the total transaction. A $1 fee per client transaction may be way more than that 2-5%. Sound to me like she is trying to get more revenue from you.

Credit card companies charge the owner of the service a fee for every transaction. On the plus side you may potentially get more business because a lot of people carry cards instead of cash. On the down side you have to pay all of the fees associated with accepting credit cards.

5% is too high. Maybe around 3%. I think merchants pay Visa and mastercard about 3% for the transaction.is she shuts down the line her customers will go away. that would be foolish way to save money. If you have any say in it tell her you will not tolerate it.

It kind of sucks for you, but also your boss needs to do whatever she needs to make sure her business is profitable.That said, you should confirm her exact expenses so you are not paying more than she pays. This shouold reimburse her, not be profitable for her.Her credit card fees can be set up various ways. Many charge a small fee per transaction ( a few cents) plus a small percentage. I usually see around 3% but it varies. Sometimes there is a flat monthly fee as well.My suggestion is to agree to split the percentage for the services and to agree to pay the percentage on the tips, BUT you should confirm with her what her fees actually are per transaction.

How do companies get supplies? -

I am starting a kitchen appliance company, and was wondering how do I get the materials? I think that big companies, can make and buy there own materials... but I don t have much money because I am just starting out.If anyone can direct me to a metal company, that would be great.PS: If it helps, I need copper, titanium, aluminum, steel.Possibly Gold or Silver

The best source of wholesale and raw materials is trade magazines for your industry. Also contact trade organizations and unions for information.

I need some help about an ebay dispute.? -

I cancelled an ebay transaction and I was waiting for the payment to clear on paypal, since it s been in hold, so I could refund the buyer s payment. But the buyer open another case saying that he didn t receive the item. Now paypal has the whole payment under its jurisdiction and I have no access to it, it s not even shown on my account anymore. To refund the payment do I have to put money from my budget?, if so will paypal release the payment it has under its jurisdiction and we ll it be mine if I refund the buyer s payment from my budget? Should I wait until paypal solves the problem? I cannot refund the payment from my budget because I don t have enough funds and ebay is my only way of making money. Should I transfer enough money to my paypal account and then refund the payment? but after this will paypal release the payment and will it be mine?

Wait for pay pal to handle it. They will take the money out of your account and refund the amount. Too bad the seller didn t wait for you to do it. This will negatively affect your score.

even if paypal hold your payment,you can return to him also,it doesn t need to wait the payment reached.......and you don t need use your own money to return..just return his money even if they are in hold status.

I work in community care starting most days at 7am last shift 9-930pm start again 7am is this legal? -

You are legally entitled to 11 hours rest in any 24 hour period and cannot be required to work more than 48 hours per week. You can exceed this if you wish but your employer cannot enforce it. You may have been given an Opt Out Agreement to sign which effectively waives this law but you can retract your consent in writing if you wish.Acas can provide you with any information you require on the Working Time Directive - http://www.acas.co.uk/index.aspx?article�� or other employment issues.

legally, you should have 12 hour break, so if you finish at 9-9.30 you shouldn t start until 9-9.30 the next day. usually in community care, and other caring professions as well as catering and hospitality you will have signed a contract agreeing to work whatever hours. Even if you don t sign a contract, after 3 months (might be wrong on the 3) you are considered to accept the terms of the employment contract, even if you haven t seen it! for further advice try ACAS...they are up to date on the legalities

I worked in the caring profession for many years. One of my responsibilities was rotas. Whilst i tried to avoid back to back shifts, it wasn t always possible. However, on the rare occasions it presented difficulties for the staff member, a chat to me usually resolved the problem by swapping with someone else.Rather than looking at the legality issues (I am sure the shifts are legal), if you have difficulties, why don;t you chat to your line manager and see if a solution can t be found.An amicable solution is always better than confrontation.Incidentally I loved my job, the residents were great - I teased them and was teased in turn. And when the day staff went home, I still had jobs to do and was invariably on duty before the day staff arrived.

Legally, as long as you have 8 hours between leaving and returning it is legal. I worked those hours for 14 years.

What if I am sued in small claims court and dont pay? -

What happens if I am sued in small claims court (under $500) by a business and I don t pay? Can they put a lien on my property? I am 61 and on disability social security

they can do anything the court and your state s laws allow -- attach you bank account, etc. that the disability check went in there isn t a bar to that unless the judge refuses to issue the order.

In a small claims court judgment, if you don t pay, the winner of the court case would have to take you back to court for enforcement of the judgment . 85% of all small claims court winners never get the money awarded by the court. If they do enforce the judgment, then the court can attach to your property, but disability checks are exempt from attachment, levies, and garnishments.

They can more than likely hold you in contempt of court because it was court ordered based on the judgement that you pay. See if you can work out a payment arrangement. If you just ignore it, its only going to get worse and become more of a problem. Technically yes, a lien can be placed and the IRS can also withhold any refunds come tax time if you have failed to comply with a court ordered settlement.

How old do you got to be to pawn ? -

i need the money today, i am 20 but don t know how the hole pawn shop thing works. someone who know give me answer

You should be old enough to enter into contracts. At 20 years old, you are now considered an adult; but depending on where you live, they might have local laws saying you have to be at least 21 to enter into certain contracts.

You have to be 18 to pawn something.You will be required to show ID in which they will write down all your info, or make a xerox copy of it.Take your stuff to the pawn shop.You will be given about 1/3 of its value in cash.If you do not return the items within a specified amount of time, they keep your items.You can also, ask them to buy it outright - also 1/3 of value./

Any Self Employment Ideas Anyone ? -

Hi all, Any Self Employment Ideas, ( offline, not related to the WWW.) that i can start from home at little or no cost? Please Advise.

i think small shop under a big complex with xerox machine and 2 to 3 std phones and one fax will fetch u good money i know that with little of recharging of mobile phones

That s a a huge question. I mean first you are being unrealistic when you say start from home at little or no cost. That s every person s dream and if it was possible, there would be no joblessness.The reality is being self-employed COSTS. You have to make an investment in the business. People think being self-employed is easier than being employed and actuall its harder because you play all the roles (janitor, accountant, marketing, president, secretary, etc.) and you have to keep the business afloat and take ALL the risks. No matter what idea you come up with you STILL have to sell it to the public so people can buy your product or service. Marketing and advertising costs (big time). Even if you said, you are going to clean peole s houses for a living. Well guss what...you have to sell yourself and gain people s trust for them to hire you. That s work. You have to purchase supplies and business products. That s costs.So the first thing is to change your mentality about being self-employed. There is no such thing as a get rich quick or get employed quick plan. You first have to decide what it is you have a passion for and then see how you can turn that passion into dollars by offering it as a service or product. don t chase money because believe me your motivation will sour real fast when the challenges of running a business come upon you.I know a guy who has a mobile car detail business. Again you will need some start up. He has his truck, a huge water tank, cleaning supplies and he goes from corporation to corporation washing people s cars in the business parking lots while people are at work. He makes great money just at our office alone. But it s work.so first sit down and decide what it is you have a passion for.

How do I broadcast radio or tv by internet? -

I want to broadcast my own tv or radio by internet, how do I have to do it, what kind of equipment do I need? and what kind of services do I have to buy?

First of all, do you want to put audio or video? If it is video, you can put it on Youtube, if you have an account, or if you have a google or gmail account. Unless you don t have the coyrights, your video will not be accepted. Be careful with where you are putting the video, and whether it s just for adults or for everyone.Secondly, if you have a google or gmail account, you can create your own blog on www.blogger.com and add as many videos you want with freedom. But be careful to kepp the settings right. You can do the same for the audio, that you get from the radio. Be careful while putting it. You might be taking a risk while putting even a single word on the internet, because people also look at things from different perspectives.

the only software that had the feature to allow me to broadcast my own tv and radio station was dishnet software. its a great software but i wish it was free. try the link below for the software http://s.dishnetpc1dis.click2sell.eu

What is an example of risk in a business world? -

Risks can come from uncertainty in financial markets, project failures, legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents, natural causes and disasters as well as deliberate attacks from an adversary.The risk that a company will not have adequate cash flow to meet its operating expenses. A company s risk is composed of financial risk, which is linked to debt, and risk, which is often linked to economic climate. If a company is entirely financed by equity, it would pose almost no financial risk, but, it would be susceptible to business risk or changes in the overall economic climate.

Does a cell phone company decide to spend $50,000,000 for all the towers it needs in order to expand their service to a new city? With no guarantee anyone in that town will buy that company s cell phones?

Investing alot in a fledgling company.

Are all/most empl0yers in Australia racist when selecting people? -

For example when the employer is a white, he will tend to choose the resume with the name such as Smith, John, Peter, rather than Muhammad, Lim Ying, Nakata?

Because owners like people to think their company is Australian made and it s run by Australians.There s also the whole idea of westernisation where the west has always been thought of as more intelligent than the east .

What do i need to start a gardening business? -

ok i live in the uk and im wanting to start a garden business and i have all the eqquipment to do the job and i also have the knowledge for the job but i am unsure what i will need to legaly work with a friend. i will also not be hiring new people. such as who do i need to inform and what to register.

If you want to be self employed just register with the tax man. Simple as that really. If you do that then you will be invited by HMRC to attend a couple of courses explaining what you can claim offset against tax and you ll find they are generally very helpful.

theres free help in your local business centre or business link.call the newly self employed help line at the inland revenue...google 4 the tel no.call tax credits...u will get tax credits every week ...amount depends on how much u earn and if yre single etc...u can get child tax credits aswel if u got kids. u may be eligible for rent help... call housing benefit.u will prob get a nhs card for free medicine dentistry etc.keep all your business receipts and bank statements, bills etc...

Register with the tax man and purchase public liability Insurance, which is quite reasonable. Make enquiries to pay your stamp.

I would like to start a business the care? -

I would like to start a business in care for adults,I have an SVQ L2 friends have L3s.Just wondering how i get this started off.Is there any help out there like grants etc.Any help would be great.I live in scotland and not to sure of the help out there thanks again

If you are going to manage the care home then you ll need an SVQ 4 or working towards it,or someone else willThe job centre can offer grants,subject to status, for new businesses, it s usually around500 - ��1,000, with a Business Plan ,and your own money as a contributionOther than that you ll need to complete a robust Business Plan and approach your bankRemember ,no bank will offer funding unless you are also puting up some finance yourself

Builder is asking for payment without starting work? -

We were going to use a builder for some work, however he has messed us around - not had good communications and now I have mentioned that we may not go ahead with him and he is saying he has bought materials for this job and indicated that we will have to pay. Legally do we have to pay? We ve got nothing in writing from him and he has verbally broken his agreement as he was meant to start the job on Thursday. Any advise would be appreciated.

just wondered if you watched Watchdog the other nightA similar story came up where a driveway was being done without the customers final agreement, as she d not agreed anything in writing and had said no to it going aheadIn the end they didn t pay a thing as there was no written contractPersonally this outfit sounds like a scam, as no decent business would ask for money for materials, as they would always have cash flow for thisPlease get rid of them because they sound like something out of Rogue Traders on BBC 1.

The situation is unclear. If you agreed his estimate and asked him to start, a contract is in effect. Call his bluff by asking him to provide you with copy invoices for the materials that were to be used on your job. If he can t, or won t, give you these items, tell him to go away. If he can you will have to consider your position a little more carefully. You either proceed with the job or pay him for the materials he has bought once he has passed them into your possession. Not before!

Even though you have nothing in writing (that s a big mistake on your part) there is a verbal agreement which is binding in law. You should have made an agreement on what was to be done and how it should be paid. We paid 25% of our new kitchen up front to allow the fitter to buy what was required, then 50% when the job was finished and the remainder when the last bits and pieces had been done and dusted. I would suggest you have a meeting where you both agree on terms that suit you both. He is entitled to some money up front as he will have things to buy and maybe even other workers he has to hire in. Do not pay him the full amount of the job before it is finished. If you need more advice speak to Citizens Advice as they will be able to advise on all the legal aspects of the work.

I can tell you the answer in English Law.The absence of a written contract makes no difference one way or the other. A verbal agreement is equally binding - so, what have you agreed exactly?Usually the failure to do something on time will not entitle either party to avoid or vary the contract unless it was agreed beforehand that time is of the essence .Builders are not entitled to payment until the job is finished unless you have agreed differently.

If an agreement was not signed, and he broke a verbal agreement then you do not have to go ahead.You do not have to pay for anything. Full Stop. Untill the job is completed.If he threatens you with all the Bulls**t, tell him you will have him for harassment.Don t stand for it. Go elsewhere.

no never, because nowadays it is difficult to trust someone,even now you are still thinking to trust me or not. at first tell him to show what he has done(I mean your job) and they pay him. usually polish or eastern eu people ask before they start.trust me many people had kind of situations.

A verbal agreement isn t worth the paper it s written on Ignore him and find a new contractor and get everything in writing, along with finish by dates.He may threaten you with legal action, so be sure there is nothing in writing he can use against you

legally you do not have to pay him, unless you signed a contract saying that you would pay him. then you have to pay

I would say definitely not. If you had nothing in writing he does not have a leg to stand on....If any problems take advice from your Office of Fair Trading.

I wouldn t pay him a dime. If he s this bad now he ll ignore you totally when he gets your money.

say no

Where can I find a list of government contracts for small bussinesss in my area for free? -

I live in Alabama and I am looking for a government listing of contracts (small bussiness). I am looking to start up my own personal bussiness and need to know whats out there. State contracts would be appreciated too... Thank You

In order to provide Federal contracts, you have to register your business with the CCR and be approved. Then you can look on their website to find contracts. In the state of Alabama, you send an application to the state and they contact you when they have an available job that fits your business.

Your county government s office will have the information. It will depend though how well the web site or web presence of your county isIn Fairfax VA for example, their website lists government contracts available http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/dpsm/solic.��Also, your Secretary of State or governor s websites will have links to contracts available to small businesses in your areaOr contact the SBA office in your state to point you in the right direction http://www.sba.gov/localresources/index.��Be clear though with the certification processes -- are you a woman owned business or a minority owned business -- and all the requirements and processes for bidding on government contracts

The information is hard to find for my company. I advise using a service like Bidprime or Govbids to get emails when there are new bids in your area.

Trademark both name and logo? -

I am preparing to trademark my companies brand. Do I need to Trademark both the name and the logo? Do i need two separate trademarks?

This decision is going to depend on a number of circumstances, as with most things in the trademark world. Let s take some time to go through a few different scenarios:1) Your comprehensive trademark research on the logo shows that it is legally available whereas the trademark research on the name shows a similar, not the same, name within a related, not the same, industry. Your trademark attorney may then advise you to file the name and logo together to ensure registration.2) In showing your mark (e.g. advertising, web site, tags or labels, etc.), the logo is ALWAYS shown with the name but the name is sometimes shown without the logo. In this case, you may want to file two applications - the name and logo together AND the name alone.3) The logo you re using is the crux of your brand and the name you re using is entirely descriptive of your goods/services. You may want to trademark your logo only OR trademark your logo alone AND trademark the name logo together.An important thing to keep in mind regardless of your particular situation is that whatever is filed with the USPTO is exactly how you should be using the mark. The USPTO wants to see your mark as you present it to your customers. Hope that helps! I wish you much success happiness in all your ventures!
