Work at home job but no cost to start? -

i would like to work from home but dont have no money to pay to get started can u help me?

You need to send your resume out to real jobs you are qualified to do. In your cover letter you need to state that you wish to work remotely, from your home office. LOTS of companies, especially in CA operate this way. They usually provide transportation for you to come in for an interview and for you to attend company meetings a few times a year, but otherwise everything is done online

If you know correct work at home info you can make money. I did the method at this site and I . create very good income every months. It is very easy to make money. You can find my method that making me money at link below.

If you talk about freelancing it needs zero initial cost else if you have already planned for doing another work you should search for angel investors

Why isnt this working .?.? -

I just made a new website at sitebuilder sponsored by optimum.I just finished but I wanted to add a game to it. I tried copy/pasting the code on my website but no game shows up. All that s there is the code. Does anyone know why this is happening?

firstly double check to make sure it s not something simple like having a character missing from the beginning or end of the code as that would cause it to display as just code rather than the game.then check to see if the sitebuilder has a html module which you should insert the code into, i use microsoft office live to build my websites and they have introduced html modules and if you insert any code without a module it just displays as the code and not the actual item you re trying to insert!also get some totally different code off the net, some glitter text or something, and try and insert that. if it does the same thing you know it s prob something to do with your website settings or the sitebuilder, likewise if it shows correctly you ll know there s a problem with the code you were trying to put in - maybe it s just not compatible, or has an error in it.hope you get it sorted!Rebecca

How to start a business with electronics? -

Hello, Ive been thinking of some businesses to start. And One of the ones that i have come up with is like a business like dell or apple. Basically i would like to create Computers, it would kindof be like asus or something similar to that. Im not really sure where to start, what would it take, (money of course). Eventually i would like to create my own mp3 player, mainly i would like to create my own electronics and produce and sell them.Thanks

Great that you want to start your own business but I would suggest something different as computers are dropping in value and use that your margins would be sa small that your business would very likely struggle from the start and possibly even fail right away. So your money would disappear quickly. I would suggest creating a small specially built system for a very specific market niche. What that specific niche is you will need to determine by your area and what people are buying. Say it was a gaming PC computer you found people in your area wanting. What you would need to do is see if you can effectively build a gaming system that is cheaper and has better specs than the big guys (Dell, etc). If you can t or you only make $20 it is not worth it. Find something else to do. I hope this helps you think it through. Good luck

if you have knowledge i would build 1, and maybe sell it around your town, or go and put it up on ebay. If u see people find it nice then make a website, and sell there. And to go abouve and beyond after a while build a shop

How Do I Start In The Music Business? -

Im Not Talkin about Performing or making music, YEt..im talking about making a radio station, or something like that, something in music..please help me out, its something i wanna do and once i start going to college, i will sing up for music classes, so ur help is apprecitated..P E A C E!

Hey Fawk,Generally speaking I can recommend against trying to build a radio station as there are so many huge players in that arena and getting the rights to broadcast are nightmarish. That said - you should absolutely run to the local college radio station as soon as you get to college and volunteer to work there if that s what you want to do. Radio is a difficult business but then again so is everything else in this economy. If your highschool has a student adviser you should hit this person up to see if you can t get an internship or a part time job even doing low end work for a local venue, club, radio station, promoter, booking agent whatever. If that doesn t work- find some band with promise and start managing them - you will get to know how hard it is first hand to break a band starting out at the local level and the understanding of that problem will give you a huge advantage over people who just take classes.If there is a big local band or group you like - ask to be there intern, drag their gear around in exchange for free tickets to their shows and introductions to the music business people they know. It s all who you know man...don t wait, go find a way to be involved - be willing to trade your time and hard work for a real business education by working in the field at the ground level.Be professional, network, get business cards from anyone and everyone you can (make your own too) and see what kind of hustle you can put together. Finding a bunch of musicians to manage isn t hard- finding a good group of musicians...well, that s another story but anything you do is experience you can twist and put on a resume.Good luck to you,Rick

Can anyone recommend a software for managing a consignment shop? -

I am assuming that you are using a computer with windows on it, so I have a few links to a safe place to download these free programs, it is from Cnet.download.com, I haven t tried these programs ( except for openoffice ) but they have high reviews and I would suggest giving the free software a try first, there are many good programs that you can get for free that may be able to meet or exceed all of your needs.

Drop shipping from China? -

I am planning to drop ship using a supplier in china, will my customers be charged extra for custom duties and how can i avoid my products and customers from going through this? I am in the US

As I know, http://www.b2c-support.com, this online shop has drop shipping business, you just need to place the order and pay, they will ship the products, and they have two shipping methods, one is international flat airmail, this will cost you many days, maybe one month, to receive the products, but the good thing is that they label it as gift , so there is no tax or custom duty. and the other is express shipping, you can get your order soon, about one week, in this way, you need to pay some import tax when your parcel arrives at your country, but good news is that they will lower the price, so that the custom won t know the true price you paid, and you just need to pay less taxThat s all I know, for some details, you need to e-mail them to figure out.

Drop shipping from China is subject to custom duties on goods over a certain value, best bet is to instruct the drop shipper to mark all items as gifts on the customs form and to put a very low value (less than $10).But... if you are trying to defraud the American Government of duties you are of course breaking the law and will be subject to the harshest of punishments.

Where can i find websites or contacts for information/places to apply for graduate jobs in China? -

Im a 20 year old UK student working in Madrid at present but I intend to work in China for my graduate year if not a permanent position, so I need to know who is best to contact, what requirements are needed from me and just any advice would be really appreciated! Thanks JD

It depends on what kinds of jobs you want. If you are only want to spend a few months in China, I think the language training school is a good choice, like the Mew Oriental. If you can speak Chinese fluently, you can find some internship here. By the way, are you planning to study while work as well? Then, this could be a different story. I am a Chinese student in college myself. So, if you can give me information about you and your plan, I can give you more help. You can e-mail me your problem.

I started a home based business but I find my Yahoo email account to be limited. What is a good email host? For example, I need autoresponder and the ability to send emails to 100 s of recipients.

You can upgrade your yahoo account or better yet if you have a web domain with Yahoo they can provide you an appropriate business email account with multiple addresses. Contact them about this for more details. Hope this helps

I think you just need to upgrade buddy..

I don t think free web base e-mail is going to cut it. Try using something like Constant Contact. Here s their website:http://www.constantcontact.com/index.jsp

I need to buy flat poly bags and to have them custom printed and I dont know where in Sacramento, Ca.? -

Lefty call 916 681-4800 they will ask you what is going in them, what size, do you have the artwork for what is to be printed, how many colors is the print needing to be, what thickness, if it has to be food grade (virgin polyethylene or the much clearer and crinkly, like cellophane, bi-oriented polypropylene) and lastly how many are you needing. Poly however is a commodity and sold by the ton, most bag printers want 100,000 and if your need is for, not quite so many, you might have to go with a stock size poly bag and print a label (like a decal) to adhere to it s exterior.

Ebay Better to sell now or wait until the Holiday season? details:? -

I ve got a very hard to find discontinued product; almost impossible to find. Buyers are paying about double the retail due to it s rarity.Selling for about double the original retail, you can t buy this perfume any more it was highly popular then discontinued due to a lawsuit (similar design of bottle)The manufacturer will likely issue a similar product this holiday that will be affordable, and will not be discontinued.Holiday coincides with the release of another popular move (New Moon; Twilight series)Should I be greedy and wait for the holidays?or take the money and run?Due to the cost $100; i figure people will be kind of broke; that and being able to get the 2nd gen product that will be available with no limitations?

sell now.i say this because i deal with selling stuff on eBay as well and i ve learned that if you try to hold out for them couple extra bucks you can end up making less than what you would ve if you just let it go right away. strike while the iron is hot.

Is this is a good idea for online business? -

i thought about starting my own website answering peoples questions. and charge like a dollar for an answer. i know alot of useless info and i have access to lots of info. is this a good idea?

You should seriously consider revising your business plan/model. Offer the service for free and use targeted ads and affiliate programs on your site to earn money.

rather than setting up a website, why not set up a premium rate number that forwards to your cell, then advertise the fact that you can answer any question and when people call you will be making money from their calls rather than a $ per question answered on the web ;)

Considering your competition - yahoo answers - offers this service for free, it doesn t sound like a very viable idea. What would you offer that Y!A does not?

Well, you ll be competing with sites such as Yahoo Answers which give them away for free. So I doubt many people will pay for it.

How come cha cha sends you the AAARGHH youre are temporarily out of Qs message when i am not? -

It has happened several times and i am wondering if when they don t know the answer do they just send you that message.

Personally, I think it s probably because Cha Cha is a complete waste of time and effort - don t expect a check or rewards any time soon or at all. It just a website targeted to young people. They ain t going to pay you or give you free stuff - it s all BS. I don t know how old you are - feel free to waste all the time and effort you want on this fabulous Cha-Cha site. Your question definitely seems to support my line of reasoning. Good luck.

What, legally, do I need to start a bakery? -

I have the experience, the place, the materials, etc. I m just lost as to how to go about getting started. I realize that there are permits, etc. required, but would appreciate any information you could offer as to what, specifically, that entails: what permit, license, etc. How much? What, in essence, is the process of applying, inspection, etc. to get started? Again, I can get the funds, etc. and don t plan to use any employees at first, so insurance, etc. isn t an issue either. Just looking for the legal aspect really. Thanks for your time and help.Kellykchristian811@yahoo.com

It depends on what city and county you are located in.You will probably need:1. Food Handler s Permit (you may have to take a class for this).2. Business License (inquire at your city administration office).3. Sales Tax Permit (if you are required to collect sales tax on what you sell). Also inquire at your city administration office.4. When you get employees, you will need to contact your State Employment agency and set up an account with them to report employees wages and pay state unemployment taxes.You will also need to do the same with the I.R.S. for federal unemployment taxes.That s about all I can think of. Good luck.

What sort of opportunities are there for entrepreneur operating from home? Thanks? -

I m not interested in joining anything or paying for any work to join? I would like to start something from home? What work do yo do from home and get paid for it? thanks

Starting a business from home is similar to starting one from premises, although there are a few other considerations. The main things are that you find a market for a product or service that you can provide, work out how to reach that target market, how you ll provide he product or service and how much money you can expect to make from it to give you a profit. (In other words, create some sort of business plan.)The other things that you need to think about are whether you need planning permission to run the business from home, if you re doing more than just running a home office or if you have lots of customers or deliveries arriving at the house. Neighbours can object about these things and if the amount of space your business is taking up is of any size, the local authority will want to know and you ll have to apply for change of use.That said, it s difficult to advise on what can be done from home. It depends on your skills, time available and a host of other things. Many years ago we ran a corporate photography business from home. At home we answered the telephone and did all the paperwork on the computer. The rest of the time we were out photographing clients in their premises or attending networking events to spread the word about what we did.I know people who work from home as copywriters. Again, all they need is a telephone line and a computer.Good luck!

I use many different way to home based business , but nothing worked untill I found this amazing way. It works fast and I make easy money after I found right way. If you are serious and really want to make money online you should check this out. You can find info here bit,ly/scgwe8 (Please edit , to . in the link)

I know you said that you didn t want to join anything, but I thought the same thing until I found uppercase living. I thought I would at least make you aware of this opportunity. Check out: http://autumnm.uppercaseliving.net/home.mBest of luck whichever path you choose!

Where to you report businesses who stick unpostaged flyers INside mailboxes? -

its a federal crime....how do you report it?

you can call the post office and ask for the supervisor and report it there, and take it upward from there, ask the supervisor s manager or director in their area, advise which zip code that s occurring in, and could get an address and send them the flyer you received. I suspect it s a business that to save money has hired some kids to deliver to your home and the kid thought the easiest way (rather than dogs jumping at windows if they got too close to the front door) would be safer and a time saver. With that in mind and this being a poor economy, why not just call the phone number on the flyer and ask to talk with their marketing department and tell them about the flyers in the mailbox and then just be done with it. It probably would not occur further as some people don t know all the laws (regarding sales).I always think of it as the horseshoe effect in that whatever you put out comes back to you in the future. If you turn someone in for something they probably never knew existed then some time in your life that turning in someone will come back to you in your life and you will be turned in for some slight infraction. It pays to think ahead.

First, you go to your local postmaster. Take a flyer with you. You can also , if the flyer has a contact # call it and tell the manager that they should not do that.

How to remove your name from a partnership (d.b.a.)? -

My husband is contemplating trying to remove his name from a partnership d.b.a. that he has with his brother. Is it possible to walk in to the clerks office and just asked to be removed or will he have to go in with his brother? He just wants to make a clean break without it getting costly or messy.

To dissolve the partnership the transaction must be registered with the county-clerk or whatever agency you registered with. There s a form like change of ownership for this. Instead of two owners, there s now just one. This, of course, needs to be signed by both partners to be valid.

Ebay question. Once you have paid for an item youve won....? -

Do you then own it even though it s still in the sellers posession? Can they cancel it?

Technically yes you own it - the same as you own the dishwasher you have bought from Dixon that they haven t delivered yet.The seller is able to cancel an auction after it s been paid for due to not having the item anymore but if this has happened to you, contact Ebay and report the seller as technically they are not allowed to do this. Good luck.KD

Unless something has changed with ebays rules: the seller is obligated to deliver the item they sold once payment has been made. If they do not, you can report them to ebay and they could be banned from ebay altogether. It s like any other financial transaction. After you make the payment the item belongs to you.

In theory you own it and are just awaiting delivery to your home. In fact, it is not unknown for ebayers who have not achieved the price they want to conveniently damage or lose the item and you get your money returned (which is the last thing you want if you are looking forward to getting a nice near new laptop at a super bargain price!)

How do vendors and supermarkets work together? -

I was wondering if anyone knew exactly how vendors work with supermarkets. For example, does a supermarket have to give the vendors the money upfront and are returned any money for products not sold? In other words, would a company like Pepsi stock the shelves with its products of a Foodtown after getting paid by Foodtown and then return any money to Foodtown for products that were not sold? Please excuse my ignorance on this. I was just always curious about the whole vendor thing.

I worked in a wholesale business for many years.The supermarket does not pay upfront but will pay on a 30-day account. Some fresh foods wholesalers can expect payment on 15-day accounts but may be subjected to spoilings returns.Wholesale products resellers (Vendors) must provide the goods where specified in the agreement to provide goods, or possibly incur fines by supermarkets for late deliveries. Fines can be as high as $500 per day for every day the delivery is late.A Vendor does not provide a refund on goods returned, just a credit on the next order. Vendors must stipulate this in the agreement before goods are provided otherwise cash refunds may be expected.Vendors must also provide a faulty goods agreement because of Policies within stores is money back guarantee, they will need to be able to return faulty goods to Vendors. Vendors may not be able to provide a faulty goods credit but may offer a repair service instead.If a product is deemed faulty and unsuitable for retail, the Vendor will have to suffer the return of product and delivery return cost.I m not familiar with Pepsi or Coke drinks but I assume the same applies as stated above.

How can i get the franchise mcdonalds in India ,and what is the term and conditions and police of company,? -

and please let me know as soon as possible to you peoples ?thanque

Initial deposit runs into crores you know? yes it is possible to grab but select only metro city with large population otherwise i have seen if in burger selling if you get only Rs.1.50 or 2.00 after all operative expenses what you have earned? Consider the interest on what you have offered as deposit which is very high. Think deeply to go for franchisee as they only earn and we loose on a longer term that is what market says.

My advice is start your own brand.Why give away lakhs of rupees just for a name?In how much time do you think you can recover that?You can as well live off the interest on the capital !

the first term and condition is that one should be able to read and write in correct english.Ask the police for more details

Whats a reasonable loan i can take out to start my bakery business ? -

hey, for school,we had to start our own business and i started a bakery. does 50000 sound good ? is it too much ?and, how long do i have to pay it back ?thanks.

I ve just finished a business course which is what my information is based upon.Before you look at loans work out all your costs, how much money do you need? Shop around and cut down the price as much as possible. Then work out how much you yourself need to live on for 3months. Add up the total and thats what you need. As far as loans go you want to find a low interest, long term payment scheme so again shop around. But before getting a loan look into grants avaliable to you for starting a business, were heading out of a recession so people gain funding.I know this is more based upon a real scenario but figured thats what the teacher is looking for.

How can lawn service customers pay without employees handling money? -

Hello, i am going to start a lawn mowing business and i Dont want my Foreman or Helper handling the money that i recieve from my customers. i live in north texas and my business will be located in austin- kind of far away. how can i collect the payments without them going through my emplyees first? is there a way other than through the mail? (the mail from there to here would take too long).

I believe if you use Quickbooks...they have a credit card payment option for the invoices you can create from their system. This would also allow you to avoid having bounced checks and you are paid after the card is processed. You will have to pay a transaction fee each time...but that may be worth it so your Foreman doesn t have to touch the cash.

My view is, if you are just getting this business started, you need to be there on site daily. If you are not, it will quickly become a disaster. Your employees will steal customers, do side jobs, do bad work and the business will fall apart.There is a discussion on this at the Gopher Forum you should read.http://www.gopherforum.com/showthread.ph��

What are the 3 USPS sevices for the company? -

I m working on a project

Your question is really too vague for an accurate answer. There are many Mailer Services, not just three. Are you looking for services for sending? Receiving? Confirming? Insuring?I will assume you mean for mailing. There is Express Mail, Priority Mail, First Class Mail, Standard Mail and Package Services Mail. Each of these have different standards and requirements.Of course there are also International options that you may also consider.The Domestic Mail Manual and International Mail Manual are available online and can answer your questions fully. It is available at http://pe.usps.gov.

As an dba can i deduct on my taxes my car and gas i use my car for business 75% -

Enter more detail here (Optional)

Not sure what a dba is but if you itemize deductions, you can claim certain mileage allowance (if it exceeds a threshold) or you can try keeping detailed records of all car-related expenses and them claim a fraction of those costs as business expense. But unless you have lots of itemized deductions you might not benefit from going the full itemized deduction route.

When you figure your yearly mileage, you take the percentage average from your daily mileage log that is related to business. The mileage from home to your place of business is considered a personal expense, so don t count it. Be careful of trips that include stopping for a gallon of milk as well as meeting a client for lunch. Uncle Sam loves to inspect your daily log, and your business calendar.

What do I need to do to make at least $100 a month from Amway? -

A friend (of course) told me about this amway thing and i signed up...it all seems a little too good to be true to make money and perhaps a MLM scheme...BUT i have not completely lost faith in it. what do I need to do to make 100 or 200 bucks a month? how many people do I need under me? how much pv do I need to order for myself? thanks!

don t get involved. you just end up losing money in the end unless your the the TOP upline of the supposed team you are under.They are the ones who pressure you into going to meetings and trainings that involve out of pocket travel expenses and other events you have to pay out of pocket attendance fees. They also entice weak minded people by showing you a fake bonus paycheck and claim that expenses are tax deductible. There is also a lot of learning and training material that you have to buy from amway, but in reality the learning tools are the real way they profit (the upline of your upline). I read parts of a very good book when I was introduced to this mysterious business . I dropped out immediately but my friend who tried to recruit me stayed 3 years until they came to their senses. The author was in amway a long time ago (80s and 90s) but the culture of amway and the series of events that transpire are pretty accurate and were similar to what my friend ultimately experienced. I feel sorry for your friend. don t get fired up!

Just for your information, it is not perhaps a MLM but Amway is a MLM. Your friend who recruited you should have told you the compensation plan. If he or she doesn t, then he or she is not doing a good job. That is the requirement of being a leader in any MLM or to be nicer, network marketing company. PLEASE!PLEASE!PLEASE!DO NOT ORDER FOR YOURSELF...You will be wasting money. If you find the products good, use them as a consumer but DO NOT stock up products.I have friends who did this way and lost a lot of money. They will tell that by buying products to keep makes you committed and motivated to recruit more people so you can get rid of the products for yourself. But please do not do this. I learn this from investing and that is the risk/reward ratio. If the reward that you are gaining is not as good as your risk, then that ratio is against you and you should not do it. So do your sums, if you require to pay $500-$1000 to make $100-$200 every month. That means your risk is bigger than your reward. And if I just take $500 per month for example..You have to invest $500 to get $200 (ideal example). This means that you are paying $300 extra every month to the company for nothing. Think about this. All the best..

Nobody s buying Amway anymore, the economy got rid of most of everyone s surplus cash for luxury items. The Amway thing is like a pyramid, the person who recruits you gets a cut of what you sell, you end up with very little. Might as well get out of it while you can and return the materials.

How can you tell whose a scammer on Gumtree.com? -

Ok i have never come across this on Gumtree but they sound like scammers to me because they both using the same kind of story:Customer 1 said:HI, thanks for the mail and i just want you to know that i am buying this item for my SON who is currently in abroad but i wish i could make it face to face and see the present condition of the item but am not n the state now if you don t mind making the payment through paypal, so kindly send me your paypal email ID so that i can make the payment as soon as possible and i will send you 60 USD for the shipping cost via USPS priority Mail Deliver. Thanks get back to me as soon as possibleCustomer 2 said:Dear seller,Thanks for the reply,and am happy to read from you.am interested inbuying your item for myson who will be taking his flight to West Africa Nigeria tomorrow nightso i will like to the total cost of the item plus shipment via FedExor Normal Post services to Nigeria.i will prefer to make the payment via Paypal.so let me have your details in order for me to proceed with the payment:Mrs B.PhilipsSo what im thinking is if i do give my email address of paypal how could they hack me or scam me? They need the password to do it shall i give it?

THEY DO NOT NEED YOU PASSWORD TO MAKE A PAYMENT TO YOUNEVER, EVER, tell anyone your PayPal password ...Anyone who asks for your PayPal password is a criminal SCAMMER .. don t even bother to reply (if they emailed you at the email address you registered for PayPal, then they already have everything they need to make payment to you).Anyone who gets hold of your PayPal password can empty ALL of your accounts that are linked to PayPal (that includes maxing out your Credit Card and your Bank Overdraft) ... and anyone who gives their Paypal password to some random eMail spammer will get no sympathy (and no repayment) from PayPal ..As to the above == well, in theory, both could be legitimate buyers, however I would suggest they are both crooks == they are getting ready to con you into sending your stuff abroad to an address that is NOT the same as the Paypal buyers address (most likely they have phished the PayPal account details off some other poor mug who has no idea that they are about to buy your goods).You MUST NEVER, EVER, send anything to an address that is NOT registered as the buyers PayPal address = if (when) the buyer claims it never arrived, PayPal s computer system will automatically reverse the payment without question if you sent it to the wrong address, your appeal will be automatically refused (see link 1 below, about a US con-merchant, most likely using a phished German PayPal account, who conned the seller into sending stuff to him in USA) Now that people have gotten wise to scams using Western Union / MoneyGram, the more clever crooks are starting to use PayPal s system of always stick the (honest) customer for any scam (link 2 below)

HUGE SCAM: Ignore it.

Of course this is a Nigerian scam. You don t EVER give anyone your Paypal address or password. What they do is create a fake Paypal notification which they email to you referencing your account address and saying the money is in your account and telling you to send the item or send them the shipping reference. You believe this is a real Paypal email and try to log into the site from that email, but you are just giving your login name and password to a scam site. http://blog.gumtree.com/paypal-scam-aler��http://www.419legal.org/reporting-fraud/��This is such a common scam on Gumtree - they don t even mention what they are buying. They say this item and send this same email to everyone who posts anything for sale. Don t believe me - put up another ad for a used iPhone or Laptop and you ll get exactly the same messages. To protect yourself from scams, only deal in face-to-face transactions where the buyer gives you cash when they pick up the item

Charity Business how to start? -

charity Business how to start

first you need a business plan in a charity you may need to access funding if you are client - service user based its hard to advise you without knowing what kind of business you are going into but if you are service based you will need market research to see if enough work is available,a start up loan from the bank may be needed to access premises and fitting out of the work place once again it is hard to advice without more information on basis of your charity, i would recommend you talk to a financial advisor at your bank good luck and best wishes in your venture.

It s quite common now for people to set up a charity. I dislike the idea, unless it is for something that does not already have a charity in force. If a charity already exists for your chosen cause, then setting up another simply takes money away from the original by adding another set of admin fees. Unless you have a good grasp of finances etc then you will lose a lot of money in overheads.

Your question is a little unclear as a charity is not a business. However, a charity can run a business arm. Please can you expand on your question and state which country you are in?

Visit the Charity Commissioner s site for all the things you need to think about before setting up a charity. There s a lot of information there.Good luck!

You need to register the charity with the Charity Commission. See www.charity-commission.gov.uk.

Is it possible to pay using paypal without an account on ebay? -

I have a paypal account from a long time ago (which has my card number on it), but I don t want to use the account. Is it still possible to still use paypal if I use this card.I DO NOT want to use the account.

.. you can change the method of payment when you get to the paypal payment page. but it still shows up as using the account , the money goes from card to paypal account to customer. you can t just go around the paypal account unless you pay for the purchase directly and not by paypal .. When you go to the paypal websight .. you have to use the account .thus log in. Sorry ..

After you qualified by application for your Pay Pal credit card - you are not obligated to use it if you don t want to. You may use pay pal as your regular broker to buy and sell as you desire, it will have no effect on your Pay Pal CC. It may come into play if you forget to update your account expirations dates (other CCs listed as primary or secondary) Then Pay Pal will use your Credit Account to facilitate purchases.

Problems with friends in a business? -

One day me and my friend decided to start off a business, so since my major is into business I thought this would be fun and a great learning experience so we decided that he would get 60% profit and I would get 40% profit and when I put down $140 to get the machine to make our product. I found out later that my business partner made a T-shirt with my other friend without me. More stuff happened and I felt like I was getting cheated because it was a partnership whatever we do we were both suppose to be in on it. And just now I wanted to just get my $140 back because I didn t know what was going on and my other friend said thats stupid if I wanted $140 . Am I right or wrong? I think I should be getting 100% of my money back because I feel left out in a partnership and apparently our friend thats not in this knows more of whats going on than I do.

You can ask your partner to buy out your portion of the business, and see if he s willing to pay you $140. He can always negotiate you down. It s up to you two to reach an equitable solution. There s no such thing as 100% refund in this case.

When you invest in a business you stand a chance to lose all of your money. If your major was business then you knew that a 60-40 split meant that he was the controlling partner and would be able to make all of the decisions. The only chance of getting your 140 back is if the company makes a net profit of around $420. (he get s 60% of the net profit and you get 40% of the net profit), that is if you don t leave first, then you get zip.

if you can, find someone to buy out your part of the partnership.Then, only seek partners who will not violate the law ofFIDUCIARY.luck

your best bet is to let your partner go and reconsider getting into business with friends again.I ve made that mistake, not just with friends buy family as well, and I vowed I will never get into business with them again.I love them, but love doesn t always equal good business relationshipsIf you want to start your own business and not have to rely on friends of family to help you make money, there are ways of doing it. My source below will help you out with that one. there are better things you could do with $140

It isnt a matter of right or wrong., as that is not for others to judge.What it CAN be measured against, is the degree of foolishness of utilizing such a slogan....

Really, like no offense but did you even have to ask this question?Not friendly, non appealing. When people read that there not gonna think of a patio..

Any ideas in how to market a new food product? -

My Friend has exceptional culinary skills. I need to find out what can we do to market some the products that she has come up with: how to market, how to patent, do we need a licence? are there any specific companies that we should reach out to? do we have to mention brand names used to make these new product, or just the ingredients? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Using brand names is a short term plan, what is in the branded products you are using? Find out and use the ingredients.Only need to list ingredients in order of greatest first, not how much is in it.Marketing help http://www.AdvertisingGuerrilla.com are great, they helped me establish my sports company when my budget was too tight to mention.

Wholesalers to use for Ebay? -

I have been searching around a bit and all I can find is crap. You have to pay for all these sites to try and get information. Any good wholesalers out there?

Wholesalers aren t stupid, they do know ebay exists. So the ones who advertise on the internet are not genuine wholesalers, they are the middle man, so you will never find products on the internet from one source, that you can sell at another source such as feebay. If you do find items cheap, the fees on ebay will certainly make it hard to make any kind of profit, or else the wholesalers you find on the internet would already be on there selling the items individually if it were possible to make more money that way. If you want genuine wholesale, you have to go to the source, the source that doesn t advertise on the internet, the source that doesn t know about ebay. I fly to Thailand, costs $1,000 roundtrip. If you re serious about wholesale, then that s what you would do. Go somewhere like that, visit the markets, and make connections. Then when you leave you can work with them and they can send you things on a regular basis. and p.s. ebay is a waste of time. Search for any item on there and go to advanced search. Click on completed listings only to see which items have sold and which ones haven t sold. Its much harder to sell on there now because they made changes last year that kicked lots of powersellers out, which caused lots of their pages to be delisted from google. It s better to just make your own website and use adwords to advertise it.

How much should I charge for a 3.5 oz jar of homemade facial scrub? -

started making homemade facial scrub as an alternative to buying Christmas gifts this year and it turns out that the few samples I gave to friends were a hit. They are asking to purchase the jars so they can give away as gifts and stocking stuffers. What should I charge? I have a 6 month old daughter that eats Gerber Baby Food stage 2. I saved the jars, cleaned them up, removed the label, spray painted the lids red, green or gold, and tied a festive bow around them. I don t know what to charge. It doesn t cost me much to make a large batch... maybe 20-30 bucks. Thanks for your opinion.

What you need to look at is how much is the competition pricing their 3.5 oz of similar product for. Then go from there, what it costs you is really irrelevant to what your price should be so look at the marketplace for your price this will serve you well.

somewhere between $5 and $8 per jar since your batches cost $20-$30.if you can make 10 jars from a batch, your profit would be between $30 and $60 if the batch costs $20.

There are two factors to consider: your cost per jar and what facial scrub sells for in your area.

What do i need to do to start up a gardening business? -

i have looked on business loink but theres a bit too much to read. im only 17 and 18 in january and i was looking to start up a gardening business with a mate. iv got all the eqquipment i need to set it up and i was just wondering when im 18 what are all the things i need to do (in order) to be legally working with my mate as a gardener

As a current part time gardener (i m 20) i would highly recommend creating some custom call cards or even putting your name in the local newspaper. Another major benefit of people getting to know your business is word of mouth! Spread the word to people around your neighbourhood (even your relatives) that your a gardener and that you do all kinds of garden work such as weeding, cutting grass, strimming, planting etc. Also inform people that you use your own equipment and that you do all kinds of garden work. Word of mouth certainly worked for me. My ex girlfriend s aunty needed work done in her garden and she asked me right away. Hope this helps. Good luck

Can I use this as my business name if it already exists somewhere else? -

I am starting a business from home where I ll be catering, making cakes, and other pastries. I want to name my business peace of cake with the peace sign as my logo. I googled this business name and there are a few other bakeries with this name but in other states. I also did the trademark search to see if it was a trademarked name, and it says that it s trademarked by a clothing company in New York. So, could I still use this name for my business name?

The clothing company wouldn t necessarily be an issue but the following mark might be: http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regse��Determining if marks infringe can be tricky and each situation varies from another.The general rules to keep in mind are:1) Are the names similar in Sound, Appearance or Meaning?2) Are the industries the same or similar to one another?3) Are the names confusingly similar to the average consumer? In other words, could customers be confused and assume that both companies are affiliated?4) Do the trade areas cross? What about the advertising routes -- are the products/services advertised in common places?Here s what the USPTO has to say about this matter: The principal factors considered by the examining attorney in determining whether there would be a likelihood of confusion are:the similarity of the marks; and the commercial relationship between the goods and/or services listed in the application. To find a conflict, the marks do not have to be identical, and the goods and/or services do not have to be the same. It may be enough that the marks are similar and the goods and/or services related. It s best to contact a private search company or a trademark attorney to assist you in determining if this will be a problem or not.Hope that helps! I wish you much success happiness in all your ventures!

It sounds like you answered your own question with your question.You want to start a company with a name that is already trademarked and is being used by several other baking companies.Maybe you should pick a different name or you are just setting yourself up for major problems down the road. Each one of the companies does have the right to take you to court. The baking companies because they are already established and in the same industry as you. The clothing company also because they have the name trademarked.

As long as you keep your business as a DBA. If you ever try to incorporate your business they will do a name search and require your INC to have a different name. However you could do POC Inc Doing Bus. As Peace of Cake

yes because the other name is of a clothing company n your business is entirely different. this is as per indian law

You risk getting into trouble so avoid it.http://peaceofcake.comMaybe adding a to make a peace of cake http://apeaceofcake.com

How do I sell on eBay? -

yes, you have to upgrade to the next level but you do not have to get a business account. Good Luck!

No, just sign in to your eBay account, go to the Sell tab in the upper-right hand corner, and you set up your auction from there.

Don t be too specific, it limits your ability to expand. If you define yourself as the best at washing driveways will I hire you if I want you do do my house or pool deck? The word CLEAN should be in your company name though. Clean is always a good selling point.Personally I don t think a catchy name makes much of a difference in this line of work. Referals come from word of mouth and neighbor telling neighbor. When you do a job on a house, make sure that you give flyers to every other house on the block. Tell them what house you just did so they can see your work.Clean SweepPower Clean

I want to go over my current Indian client and do business directly with his client in Germany. How do I appro? -

Things that are pinning me are:1. Is this unethical(From my side it is not, as my current client has gone behind my back and started doing business directly with my sub-contractor. Which I believe is unecthical treatment towards me)2. Will the German client take my direct approch postively(he will not be knowing my circumstances).3. Could this in any way back fire on me.I have never done any export business. I dont know how the Germans or international markets think over these issues.

It is Unethical .... Yet you have to offer a very competitive price ???/.. plus the german didn t deal with you before.. he might take your direct approach, but you have to gain his trust.. yet if the products are the same and the price is much competitive .. yet you don t have experience with exports ???!!!!.. You might make good money or win the german ,, yet it would back fire at you for sure some day or other.. What goes around, comes around Good luck, and have a great day ...

Selling goods for other people - legal rights? -

I recently began selling a quantity of items for someone but soon realised the quality wasn t good and didn t want to continue. I told them this and told them to arrive and collect the money I d made for them plus their remaining goods on a certain day. They arrived a day early when I was out. For the next 2 months I have tried to arrange a pick up and payment but it hasn t worked out and now they are annoyed at me for having to wait so long! I am now busy until the 18th of December and asked them to come and see me then. However they are up in arms about having to wait. Am I within my rights to stick to that date for pick up and payment? What legal rights could they bring against me? Many thanks

I certainly hope you made a copy of the correspondance stating when they could pick up their crap. Were they there on the day of the pre-arranged appointment? NO they came the wrong day and that is NOT your problem. If their stuff is being stored on your property it may be yours now. Check with a local attorney most first visits are free and if the property has been in your posession for 60 days past when they wre to pick it up in most states you are free to dispose of it however you see fit. Pick up that phone. Lawyer will let you know if there is a case or not.

What are some after school jobs i can do at 14 yrs old? -

I want a job i can do afterschool to get money and but stuff i like because my parents dont alwyas buy what i want and sometimes i really want stuff but dont have any money to buy it so what are some job ideas???

you start by asking neighbors to let you go through their trash and collect all the bottles and sell them. Then you go back to only the ones that said yes and you ask them all if they need anything straightened or sorted and cleaned out in their garages. then when you have cleaned out all the garages on five blocks you go back and get them to let you mow all their yards leaving the last one (that has a pool) so you can jump in to get all the pollen off you. then you get a paper route and then when you are fifteen you go to work at a grocery store bagging groceries.

where do you live?i m from canada (eh), and you can get a job at tim hortons at 14..which is a coffee shop...you have some in the states too.so my guess, try coffee shops and grocery stores. many will hire 14 year olds, if not 15 year olds.give er a try!good luck friend

Where can i buy yellow boxes wholesale? -

What kind of boxes? corrugated, chipboard what? Boxes are made in quantity. Like in chipboard (like sees candy, shoe, cereal boxes) they are made in tons any color you want. In corrugated (like shipping boxes) they can be flood coated and yellow as well. But in my 25 years I don t remember any sizes of yellow boxes sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to need just yellow in order to get a quote you will need to know how many, what material and it s thickness it will be made out of, what style of box and the exact color yellow off of the PMS color chart

You need to contact the manufacturers to talk with. You can get the customized boxes from these manufacturers. Here are some manufacturers that deal with cardboard boxes and other packaging boxes http://www.hellotrade.com/jinying-jewelr�� http://www.hellotrade.com/dihong-industr�� http://www.hellotrade.com/clifton-case/, http://www.hellotrade.com/fengze-packagi��

What to do if you have a patent but no money to produce your product? -

I am asking this for a buddy, he has tons of ideas and has a few patent pendings but doesn t have money to produce his products. I m sick of hearing about his ideas but never seeing him do anything with them. Can you take your patent to companies and try to sell them the patent or do they want to see a working prototype which he does not have money to get done since molds and things cost thousands of dollars?Any advice to give him?

There Companies which evaluate the commercial potential or patents and if it looks good the fund it , you will sign a contract where they get a percentage, Same with lawyers,Its best if you get a patent lawyer before going to companies, cause many are not trustworthy, or exploitative.

I think it would be in your best interest to consult a lawyer--preferably one that practices International Law.

Attn Ebayers! Whats the secret to success on ebay? -

I am having difficultly selling and also getting goods bids on my items. I do set a reserve because I fear of selling something for .99 or $3, etc. I set a reserve, have several views and watchers, but they bid at the last minute and still sells relatively cheap. Also, what s the best way to handle shipping? I guess at it and have never charged enough and it cuts into my profits. I see others charging very, very little for shipping, but mine costs me around $15 every time I have shipped and they are all average sized packages. Any suggestions?

Try not to set a reserve for your items, as people typically do not like reserves. Reserves are usually set for high value items such as jewelry, cars, etc. Set an auction beginning for .99 cents, and 7 days. It will not stay at only 99 cents or $3, trust me. I have sold many valuable things at a good price such as TV s, video game consoles, i pods, etc with the bid starting at 99 cents. Also, list your items on sunday evening as this is the time when a lot of people are on ebay. Many people also tend to bid at the last minute, so don t be discouraged when the price of your auction is low 4 days into it. If the time of the auction is ending very soon and the price is way below what you want for it, ask a friend or family member to bid the least amount acceptable you will take for the item.(even though this is against ebay rules, they won t find out..and if your friend does win the auction just cancel the transaction so you don t have to pay ebay seller fees)Shipping is weird sometimes. People offer free shipping for stuff and that usually results in higher bids, as people like free shipping. Try using USPS flat rate shipping boxes. They have affordable flat rates for items up to a certain weight limit, and the boxes are free from your local P.O, or online.

If i pre-order something, will the store hold it for me? -

the modern warfare 2 xbox is coming out 11.10.09 and i have to get it December. will a store hold it?

Probably not. Usually when you pre-order something, it just means the store will save a copy for you on the release date. You d have to ask the particular store what their policy is about pre-orders.But if it comes out in November and you re not going to be buying it until December ... why would you need to pre-order it? Just go out in December when you have the money and pick one up then!

Yes, you can pre-order. You can pre-order on Amazon and they ll just ship it to you when it s ready.

That s the point of pre-ordering. You buy it before it comes out, so when it does, you have a copy reserved. You re ordering it before everyone else!

As long as you pay for it in full they will reserve it for you.

What are some ways that a small business can be socially responsible? -

Everything socially responsible (packing materials that are environmentally friendly, donating money, etc) seems to cost so much money! My small business doesn t have major corporate financial resources, but I want to be as socially responsible as possible and want to give back to the community. What are some ways that a small business without major corporate financial resources can be socially responsible and give back to the community while continuing to make a profit?

Coley, in a price-conscious world, your question is a great one. Many consumer decisions center on price alone, with no attention paid to how goods are produced or other negatives triggered intentionally or inadvertently by companies and consumers. As consumers, we buy engagement rings never thinking about whether young African children might have been enslaved to mine for those diamonds -- and of course without thinking about how that might have been OUR children if we d grown up in a different culture.That s consumer behavior; now let s shift to responsibilities and opportunities for companies. Marci s list of questions provides a strong base for you to increase your social responsibility. One way to look at this is through the prism of the Triple Bottom Line: People, planet, profit. In a perfect world, you want all three. In the real world of compromises, sometimes you ll end up slightly imbalanced. The trick is to keep your business from ignoring any of the three (by the way, I usually replace planet with the word community and use it to think beyond the environment).Some thoughts:-- Are your customers so price sensitive that they would balk if your products were sourced so that the growers or manufacturers were assured a living wage? (Costco has built a huge business on this -- I m not even talking about Whole Foods). -- Wouldn t many of your customers applaud if your packaging were all reused materials (especially if you let them know what you ve helped keep out of the landfill)?-- Isn t treating your team with deep respect much less expensive than recruiting and training replacements?-- Doesn t being out there doing work at the local Boys and Girls Clubs help bring awareness to your brand?We entrepreneurs create our own businesses at least in part because we want to create a reflection of our souls. Maybe a little less profit and a lot more goodwill isn t a bad tradeoff. But I m willing to bet that if you focus on doing good while doing well, you ll grow your bottom line too.

It does not necessarily have to be money that you donate. Join a local community service group (such as Kiwanis) or encourage one of your top employees to join by making the time available and picking up the cost of the annual dues. Now you (they) can contribute with a little sweat equity in one of their projects. You are being socially responsible and get the added benefit of getting your name and your companies name in front of other community leaders. I think it is a win win situation.

If you are seeking some small ways to support you community then how about sponsoring youth activities through the local Boys/Girls Club. How about local high school sports? What about local litter volunteering for your county roads? The other thing may be sponsor a career day with other local businesses. Hope this gives you some ideas. Good luck

I have a small import company and I give back 10% of my sales to charities in the countries my merchandise comes from.

Coley, it s great to hear that you re looking for ways that your business can be socially responsible and I understand your fear that making efforts to help the world could cost more than your business can afford. But I m going to suggest you think about it in a different way. Take a look at every aspect of your business and ask yourself, Are there ways I can improve something here? I m guessing you can find a few places where you can do better without spending much at all.I recently heard about a doctor who was courted for a big position at an urban hospital. He knew he had leverage so as part of his negotiation he asked the hospital to revise its policies on treating poor patients. He got what he asked for. Try to look at your business the same way. What kinds of changes can you make to benefit not only your business but your customers, your employees or your community?Here are some questions to ask yourself.If you have employees, are you treating them as well as you could be? Do they feel comfortable taking time off when they are sick? Do you provide opportunities for training and acquiring new skills? Have you created an environment that allows workers time for doing things that matter in their personal life? Is there a cause or charity that fits in with your company s focus? If so, why not partner with them on a fundraising activity like a walk or a bicycle ride. You ll get the opportunity to do good in your community, to engage your employees or customers in good work, and to get people involved in a fitness activity.If you use a factory to make any of your products, have you investigated the working conditions in that factory? These days, your customers will care about how the products they consume are made. You should too. Start reading Good Magazine (www.good.is) and its spin-off Good Business (http://www.good.is/departments/good-busi�� They ll give you lots of good ideas.

Help starting a business? -

I want to start a business. But i have little money. What type of business can i start with little to no money that can become successful?

It would have to be something that is labor intensive like auto detailing.

Nate, you first need to identify what skills you have. What are you passioate about? What are your hobbies? Are there any needs/opportunites that you can identify in your neighborhood? Within a lot of starting capital to go buy an existing business/franchise, you may want to do some local research and analysis of things closer to you. Talk to friends and family and see what is missing. Good luck.

Nathan, First off, let me congratulate you on wanting to purse the adventure of operating a business. This is a field that I promise you will be well worth the wait, time and investment. During this stage, you will have the opportunity to make as much as money as you would like, be your own boss, and several other perks. Prior to joining this task, I want to make you aware that this is a task that takes a lot of time and persistence. So you should be sure to invest your time and money in something that you are very passionate. Now to answer your question on starting a business with little money, the number one suggestion I want to give to you is to become an affiliate for a company.

You on the other hand, are responsible for all the advertisement and getting the customers to buy the given products. If you can master this concept then you can master the concepts of operating your own business because you will know everything that it takes to make a person buy a product. I hope that you have found this information very helpful and if you need further assistance on how to become an affiliate I would be more than happy to help you out.

QUESTION ABOUT IMPORTING ELECTRONICS ONLINE FROM OVERSEAS..? -

just wondering...if i wanted to buy a flat screen tv online from the U.K., would it save me alot of money? Or what if i broght it from like mexico or something? Our money here in the USA is worth much more than in mexico, so shouldnt i be able to get like a 32 inch flat screen tv for like $80?? Also, anyone know any websites that i can order electronics from overseas for dirt cheap?????

You ll probably end up spending tons of money on shipping - and then you get the added pleasure of waiting for the item to arrive from overseas (which it probably won t). Just buy one off craigslist - of course be sure to check it out for a few minutes before paying cash for it and taking it home. There s not really any Mexican flat-screen TV manufacturers that I know of. Either use craigslist with cash or buy one from a store near you - your chances of being scammed are drastically reduced.

What is the best way to find customers? (Production, Tool amp; Die)? -

We want to find a new customer base in solar and wind energy. But every time I try to find customers to make parts for, all I find are companies that are already producing the products. How do I find new buyers.

Sales people who know how to cold call, not take no for an answer and can close business. It s not rocket science. Just sales.

Small business taxation (USA)? -

With a business partner, we own an LLC in a different state than the one we are currently residing in. Would this create any complications or cause additional cost when filing our individual tax returns?

I am not a tax consultant. I think you have to fill out your business taxes in one state and your personal taxes in the other state. If you only fill out one set of taxes, then you have to pay taxes to both states for everything. You should hire someone anyways if you own a business. They will remind you of more tax write-off s than you knew existed and the laws change every year, so in the long run, it is better for you. If you ever get audited, then you will be prepared.

Yep Xtal is right, you should hire someone if you own a business. I hired http://www.thetaxclub.net/ to get hold on my taxes. I would recommend them to anyone.

Is there a way to register my business name for free? -

i have a small software business(well trying to anyway) and i would like to register it and trademark the name. i dont have any money so i cant pay so i need it done for free. just something to make it official. also include paid ways but mainly free if there are any

You can do it yourself, but it still won t be free. You can do the DBA name at your local city office, usually. They will issue your city biz license and the dba name. It will cost some money, but much less than having someone else do the work for you. However as a business, you will also need an EIN number, if in the US, so you can pay taxes, unless you re doing this as a sole proprietorship. Keep in mind that if you mess up in the business, your personal property can be affected in a sole proprietorship.

YES. I have multiply businesses name and not only are they FREE. I m being paid for having them for more information visithttp://www.rhfreedom.ws

When does a hobby become a business? -

I am in the final stages of getting a business plan off the ground, and hope in the next few weeks to start producing a product to sell in my spare time. I have invested my own money, and don t expect much return very quickly. I am still going to work full time until slowly i can afford to drop a day if my business picks up. I am going to be working out of my friends shed, and marketing through ebay to start off. I have been advised that it should just be a hobby at first. My question is, do i need to register my business with anyone yet, does that make me self employed ? basically when does a hobby officially become a business? I want to avoid getting in trouble.

When you can earn an income from it.

You would need to apply for an ABN no. to register a business name. I don t believe this is expensive - just a formality. I would visit an accountant to get some advice to set up some basic bookwork. I don t think anything would be required until you actually start selling goods - Just keep all your receipts till then. Ps. Good luck!

You can find a small biz to try firstly, invest a little and high profit ,no tech requriements and feasible in reality .DIY Cartoon Shop biz ----you can diy lots of vivid plaster cartoon models by using our natural rubber moulds,so that you can launch painting course for children etc for biz.http://artmeilinda.en.ec21.com/

Yoga business costs ? -

What are the business start-up costs ?What are the operating expenses ?What extra inventory maybe needed ?What is the estimated yearly revenue and profit ?

Hi - Business costs and revenue will vary depending on the size and location of your studio, how many staff members you hire, how many classes you offer, heated yoga, local competition, etc. You can take a look at sample start-up costs for another yoga studio to get an idea of what you may expect.http://www.bplans.com/yoga_center_busine��You can also request information from a yoga franchise like Sunstone Yoga. The investment cost they quote is between $147,000-$327,000.http://www.sunstoneyoga.com/ProductsServ��

I would visit the Small Business Administration in your city and ask them for help. There are many many start up costs, location, liability, education etc. maybe even licensing etc.Also, call a Yoga Business in a city near you and ask them, they may or may not be willing to talk with you, but you may find a great mentor who can help guide you.

Do you need a license to sell tobacco related products online? -

Other than a business license, what do you need to sell tobacco related products (not tobacco, itself) online? Such as rolling papers, pipes, or lighters.

You don t need any license as far as I know. It s very hard to get approved for any sort of credit card processing, and I think Paypal prohibits this as well. But as long as you re not selling tobacco, there s nothing additional from any online retailer that needs to be done.

I don t think you need any other type of license, unless you re actually selling tobacco.

Where can I sell old items? -

Please don t suggest Ebay or a car boot.

Bid UKGumtreeFreecycle

A consignment store will take in good quality items and put them up for sale for a certain time period. If they don t sell by a given date, you pick them up and bring them home.

Ebay is best.

Gumtree

craigslist

if you know their value you could try a local flea market or craigslist.

What is the most efficient way to market an online subscription-based site? -

My partner and I have a new subscription-based site we re going to be launching shortly and are researching the best ways to reach out to the online communities at the onset. We understand it s a bit of a process to market but also understand the impact a solid viral campaign can have. Any thoughts on the best way to attempt to launch such a campaign?

I would certainly start with the social networks, as I discuss over here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?�� Beyond that, think hard about how you can teach what you know. Does it make sense to give away some of the information on your site? I m a big fan of building a following as an expert in a niche. If you re generous with your knowledge, consumers hunting for additional information usually will be willing to pay for perspective that is more specific to their situation. All of this should link back to your own company s site, where visitors can find the most information (regularly updated, please!) on the subject area.If you have a budget for online marketing, you can then use those funds to bring additional visitors to your site. I think search marketing, when smartly done, can be very effective, especially if you test smartly the key words that will get you noticed by search engines. Piecing together combinations of words -- oil-based paint risk, historical military data, etc -- can make your search ads efficient.Lastly, you might consider an email newsletter. If the industry changes enough (and most do), there could be significant value in you keeping others informed on what s going on, neatly delivered to their inboxes (opt-in, of course).

No competition actually, standing in line is a bummer at each and every store as well I would have to say they are alone (with their in ad sale prices) get on their mailing list, you ll soon see. If buying used isn t a bother I recommend half.com it is a very good way to save especially if the seller has other items you can ad on to reduce shipping drastically.

Here is a but a great GPT (Get Paid To) site that is very trusted and safe to make money online. I average about $50 to $60 a month. It s free and never will you be asked for money.

Where can I sell my carpets? -

I will sell organic dye handmade rugs and carpets from Turkey. Apart from ebay, where can I sell them online?

Now selling yours products is not a big issue on internet. Previously i use to sell my products on ebay but from past year, selling on ebay has become more tedious due to its more commission. So i have also tried other options such as free classified websites. Not only these sites offer free ad listings but exposure to these ads are also good. I am listing few sites for the reference such as http://www.craigslist.com and http://www.hindlist.com which offers country wise and city wise listings for all products. There are even more sites which can help to sell your products free of cost.

Consider consigning your rugs at area rug shops and/or go directly to rug stores and ask them if they would be interested in your products. Besides being a good learning experience for you in terms of the market and networking, you may be able to get the best price for your wares this way as well. Selling rugs online can be difficult as in photographs, damaged goods look the same as mint condition goods. If you have excellent quality rugs, you may not be able to compete price-wise with those who are selling damaged and worn pieces.

What can I do to help bring business to my restaurant? -

I have recently accepted a job in public relations for a local Tex-Mex restaurant. The food they serve is quite good and fresh. However, I m having difficulty getting patrons during lunch. Our prices are very low for freshly cooked food. We are in a smaller town, but have a few fairly good sized businesses. I would like to make a deal with some of the employees from these companies, but I m not sure what s appropriate. Do you have any suggestions?

I would start by getting in touch with the HR Director at the businesses and offering a discount or incentive of some sort to all their employees. In most companies the HR Department would be the ones to post the coupons on the company s bulleting board or email the menu around to the staff or something like that. I would make sure you have something to offer to make a benefit for the employees, like 10% off the bill with a company ID, or something like that. Otherwise they won t likely be interested.Good Luck.

What are Bookings.com and Expedia...are they tour operators? If not what are they and how do they work? -

I ve been told that they are tour operators but would like to know more.

I believe they are just booking agencies. They work with airlines and hotels and negotiate discounts which they pass (most of) on to their clients. They also earn a commission from the airlines and hotels.

They are not tour operators (at least Expedia is not ... I don t know about Bookings.) Expedia only sells tickets. They don t run tours.More info:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expediahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expedia,_In��

So i ll have my business for about 12 months before selling it.So what are the best ways of maximising the value of my business so for when it comes sale time, i can hopefully achieve a sale of about $7500AUD.How would one go about increasing value?? Thanks.

You have to show growth (no pun intended). If I am buying a business, Of course the first thing I want to know if what you owe. After that it is how much you make vs how much you spend. The biggest thing I want to know is how much has your profit gone up each month. If it is not at least 10% each month, then I have no interest in it.

Increase your profit. (Reduce expenses and/or increase revenue).Growing your customer base is a common method but this usually takes time and money (such as marketing expenses) and since you want to sell in 12 months it s probably not really worth making this investment.If you don t think you ll lose any customers you might want to raise your rates a little bit.The more you earn, the more your business is worth.

Is it unusual to ask for nearly $100,000 from a lender in order to start a business? -

So long as you have a business plan that justifies the need for the money - i.e. salaries, property, plant, and equipment - and how the investment can generate enough cash to sustain a business and repay the debt, no amount is unusual. The business idea may be unusual, however...

No it is not.. But you need to have a good business plan and also your personal credit (you will be the guarantor) before they can approve you.
