Are there any websites from where i can earn money..? -

i am a teenager....

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.

There are lots of website that can help you earn money.Because you are a minor, you will have to read the TOS (terms of service) of any site you wish to use in order to determine if they will allow someone your age to use the site. Different sites have different age requirements.It s hard to know which sites to direct you to without knowing what kind of work you are looking for.If you can write articles, try Associated Content. They offer up front payment as well as a revenue sharing program. I used to write for them so I know they pay. It s a good place for new writers to start.Once you have some experience, you can put up a profile on one or more of the freelance sites and try to get business that way.Another option is to write articles for revenue sharing sites like Hub Pages. They won t pay you for your articles up front, but the larger revenue share they offer can more than make up for this over time. For some of these sites, you will need an Adsense account and I think you have to be 18 to open one. Again, check the site s TOS and use the ones that don t require you to have an Adsense account if you are too young to open one.If you can do any kind of IT work you can make a really good online income. You would use the freelance websites to offer your services to people all over the country--or even the world. You would have to start out working for low prices until you build a reputation for quality work. Once you ve got some positive feedback from the people you ve done projects for, you ll be able to get more money.I hope this has answered your question. Good luck.

Don t waste your time with survey sites. I ve wasted so many hours for nothing with those.If you can do any kind of writing this wesite;www.odesk.com the website offers jobs from companies around the word looking for cheap workers.It doesn t pay well, but as far as earning money online without your own website, its the most reliable that I know of.

No.Try a real job or make your own websites or blogs and earn from Google ad sense. Good luck.

No, look for an actual job or do odd jobs for people.

Pizza business questions any thoughts would really help..? -

My family recently bought a pizza place. What is a good way to get the business off the ground?

Number one: is to hold an open house with invitations going to all your city hall employees, parks and rec, maintenance, city yard, police, fire and emergency workers and employees. Then on a different night hold another open house to all schools teachers, coaches and administration personnel. If you have an entire city eating at your restaurant the word of mouth will go all by itself also you will get a huge lunchtime following. I must add this as it worked for a couple pizzas places that needed a boost in sales and got it! I must recommend an alfredo, artichoke heart and garlic sauce option. Because you can make every specialty pizza with it, and being on the menu in conjunction with the (normally lonely) red sauce and it will open up a huge following that red sauce non eaters will recommend to every one.

Advertise!!! There are many ways to advertise, but you need to get your name out into the community and intice people into trying your pizza. A couple ideas that may work for you:1. Flood the community with menus and coupons for $2.00 off a large pizza. Hand them out to local businesses to distribute to their employees. If your community has a college, distribute them to student housing locations. Target apartment complexes, either by direct mailing a coupon to them or delivering them door to door. If your pizza is good, they will be return customers.2. Advertise for a pizza party of the week for local businesses. Each Monday, have a drawing for local businesses to win a free pizza party with up to (4, 6, or however many you choose) free pizzas delivered on the Friday of that week. If you can advertise this through a local radio station, you will get an even bigger hit. When you deliver the free pizzas, make sure you bring along enough menu/coupons for all employees to have one, plus extras for the break room.3. Visit local schools and offer to cater student events they might have at reduced prices. Once you get the students hooked, they will encourage their parents to order from you.4. Hand out menus/coupons at community events.

I think since it s fall and there are probably alot of festivals of sorts happening, you guys might want to set up a stand and give away free sample slices of your pizza. The only way people are going to know if the food is good is if they eat it, and they re more likely to try something new if they don t have to pay for it.

I think the best thing would to be have a low priced buffett for your grand opening so everyone will come in and get to taste your pizza.if its good then you will have repeat customers at you regular prices.good luck!

Starting A Company Questions? -

I am looking into starting a company. I am currently in Full Time Employment and I intend to remain in Full Time Employment whilst I operate the company. The company is a weekend thing that can only be operated at the weekend. What I need to no is: How does tax and national insurance work?Are there any restrictions on being in Full Time Employment and Owning a Company?What kind of records do I need to keep?Can petrol be of set in expenses?Thanks

First you need to decide what type of company to set up.If you are providing a service to someone - eg plumber, gardener, mechanic etc you should be a sole trader, you will not need to notify Companies House, nor deal with any administrative or accounting requirements which are required of limited companies.You must register with HMRC as self-employed, even if you already send in a tax return. The advantages are that you can carry on using your personal bank account as your business account. Essentially, your business income is counted alongside your existing personal income, so the accounting side of your business will be very straightforward. But, you will be personally liable for any debts you incur in the running of your business which you wouldn��t be liable for under the limited company route. Self employed people are also liable for Class 2 NI contributions (currently ��2.40 per week: 2009/10 Tax Year).In terms of accounting, you will need to submit an annual self assessment form to HMRC annually.A Ltd company...is more complicated, you ll have to register your company with Companies House (an accountant/solicitor/specialist broker can do this for a one-off fee of ca ��150). Essentially this looks more official and gives you personally greater protection against bad debts. Tax wise you pay class IV and corporation tax and the rest you can pay (after expenses etc) as a dividend. So you ll pay less tax, but the accountancy side is more exacting and annual accounts will need to filed annually and you ll likely need a qualified accountant, so that will cost more. There are also partnerships and limited liability partnerships which are variations on the above. As regards being in full time employment and owning a company, first if you are working for someone else consult your work contract - they might not allow it, in which case you can set up the company in the name of a spouse, parent or similar. You are best off getting an accountant to answer the technicalities of this though.What records...all cash in and all going out - book-keeping plus related business expenses - whether professional services, parts, post, stationery etc. Essentially a record of everything you spend on the company. Keep any information and documents that you may need to help you fill in your tax return or to make a claim. If you lose a few receipts don t worry - especially if they are for minor amounts, but don t of course go claiming for stuff that is not relevant to your business. Petrol...you can charge 40p per mile for the first 10,000 miles and 25p per mile thereafter, in any one tax year. But going to/from home your place of work is not business mileage. Essentially keep a log of where you went and when and the mileage.If your t/o is above ��67,500 you ll have to register for VAT and keep records for that too. Lastly, in my experience provided that you file accounts in good order and don t make too many mistakes HMRC are unlikely to hassle you - there are more than enough tax cheats out there to worry about whether a small businessman has claimed a few receipts illegally.

I run a small business and find that calling the IRS or government tax office to be very useful. They can give you a better idea of details.I don t think there are restrictions on working while running a business, in fact many financial institutions might be more willing to help you out if you are.You need to keep meticulous records. There are programs like Quickbooks that are an asset to any business. You might also want to hire an accountant and/or business manager.Not too sure on the last part. I would again ask your local government tax office for that type of detail.

before you start you need to construct a robust business plan and keep perfect records of all income and all expenses as this is what your tax will be based on.My husband is self employed and pays his N.I. by standing order as a percentage of his gross earningspetrol can be an expense if you use a vehicle in the running of the business

If your serious about owning your own company, even a small one, there are three things you need; an accountant, a lawyer and a banker. That doesn t mean you have to spend thousands, but without them, your opening yourself to major problems.And you ll get much better advice than you will on a website.

The citizens advice bureau will give you paperwork telling you all you need to know about starting a business free of charge .Personally i would start the business keeping a good percentage of the profits in a safe place and wait for the gov vultures to inform me how much protection money they wanted to allow me to stay in business .

Yes you can do both as long as you declare your full earnings at the end of the year. An accountant would be able to answer all of these questions properly

you can do both.you need to keep a money log that covers everything you do IE how much you spend, how much you earn, how much goes into product, how much is bills for the company such as storage etc.. and profits.this will help you at the end of each month and the end of the year. would be nice to know your making money i mean what if you spend $500 running the company but only take in $480 at the end of the month well thats not good is it you might want to track that etc..taxes at the end of the year will be a pain without records.you will be filling 1099 more than likely and that means you need to save about 30% of what you earn so that you can pay taxes at the end of the year. hey you can take that 30% and invest in short term cd s or other short term municipal bonds etc... hey if you have to save it why not make some money off it.the key here is save that 30% because the last thing you want is to do taxes at the end of the year and be told you owe the irs $7k and not have it. what would be nice is to have that 7k in the bank and have earned say another 800 off investments and then be told you only owe $3500. even if you owe 7k you still have the 800 in your pocket. get a website and have it SEO d (search engine optimization) even if just for regional seo. web advertisement is so much cheeper and efficient than dong paper advertisement.also depending on the company you work for you might need to look into a no compete clause. IE you work for verizon but want to sell sprint cellphones on the weekends from you mall cart.
