I am opening a clothes shop selling African Outfits but up to now i do not have a name.? -

i have searched for a simple and eye catching name but i dont seem to get any.

How about running a competition in your area through your local newspapers, or with local secondary schools/colleges etc to get all the locals to come up with a name.That way you get free PR in the local newspapers, school/college newsletters etc both announcing the competition in the first place and then announcing the winner, perhaps with a photo of you handing the competition winner their prize (which doesn t have to be expensive - how about an MP3 player for a tenner?) and if you get photographed with the winning name/logo being held up too then it gets it in front of people right from the start. then once they start to see your business up and running they will already be familiar with the logo/name etc and your business will have instant credibility.This is just an idea - adapt it at will!

Name Your Business so it��s MemorableDoes your business name stand out? Does it tell people what you do?��Pet StoreDoes it include your name to give it a friendly feel?��Jenny��s Pet StoreDoes it give your location if you want to target a particular area?��Jenny��s Sydney Pet StoreDo you specialize?��Jenny��s Sydney Pet Rabbit StoreIf you have a small marketing budget your business name becomes another marketing tool and an image for customers to remember.

Maybe use part or all of an African village name, or an african word for a piece of clothing.Look at the type of names used for african hair products or successful wine merchants......Often the idea will come to you when you are not thinking about generating a brand name.

I cant really help you with the name of the store (Sorry) but I can tell you that your going to need Dress Forms and Mannequins, and that I Buy mine on Amazon.com, they have some really good ones listed and the prices are very fair.Good luck!!!!!

What about Instyle, Outfit, citizen, standard, or you can use the local word in African Language.Wish you all the best for you new venture.

Out of Africa [ like the film ]SafariSavannahgood luck with your shop

Grant money for expansion of a Real Estate office? -

I work in an EXIT realty franchise in Ohio. I have been asked to do some research into grant money and government aid for Real Estate businesses looking to expand/renovate etc. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

There s no such thing as grant money for a profit making business or company. Don t even bother looking. NO such thing! You need to reinvest your internally generated profits, or borrow against your cashflow. However, small business loans are nearly impossible to come by these days. Nobody is lending. Since you are in real estate, you ought to know better than anyone what the banking finance climate is like these days!

Jessica,give a try to this resource: http://getcreditfast.info/businessgrantsHope it will help as it have helped some of my friends.Good luck!

I would like to know what college is a good buisness school and i would like it to be an Ivy League like harvard or darthmouth. Also any tips would be great! Thank you!

PLEASE GIVE ANY FEEDBACK EXPERIENCE-WORK AT HOME SCHEMES? -

HAS ANYONE EXPERIENCE WITH THE GOOGLE EASY PROFIT KIT, ITS A WORK AT HOME THING- I AM ALWAYS SCARED OF BEING SCAMMED SO I REALLY WOULD APPRECIATE ANY EXPERIENCE FEEDBACK

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.

I am not sure what Google easy Profit is, but I can tell you that there is no easy profit. The key word in your question is scheme. That s exactly what these things are.I am an accountant and while I have never tried one of things, I have had to clean up many of the messes they caused. The Madoff scam should have helped American s get their heads out of their butts but people are still after the easy buck.Even if you find an honest work at home business, you will work twice as hard for half the pay of a normal job. It s not worth the headache.

Read the fine print on that, it ll scare you off- then open an ebay account sell off your old video games and stuff. You make better money that way its safer.

You could start a completely free home based online business.

Hi again, i have an open NA plot, do suggest me a business? -

hi again i have a open plot of 4000 sqft at nashiki was planning for mushroom cultivation or rabbit farmingif u have any other ideas please suggestpleeeeeeeeeeez

Since you have asked me through separate email to suggest you a new business fetching you about 50 K return per month income with Rs. 5 lacs of investments and this plot you are mentioning here; I have gone through your Question Answer profile at Yahoo! Answers and found it interesting to know that very recently you have answer to Vimi s somewhat similar question but no answer to your own question!With the background of your already being Tea/Coffee machines dealership, you may consider yourself to expand to a dependable and affordable Service Provider kind of entity with the kind of investment budget and income expectations you have. Remember, you would require to build gradually your business over a period of time, say 1 to 2 years with a team of dedicated and practically delivering manpower under your control. Now this service providing could be either to household customers or industrial/business customers. Have a workable business model in your area of operations, stay honest and practical in catering your customers needs, be affordable cost and time wise, exploit use of the plot as your physical base for business and I am sure you would be through. Rs. 5 lacs may not be enough investments in these times to manufacture/deal in products and supplementary logistics but is surely enough to be a good service provider in Nashik and around.Good Luck!!!

The fashioned shoe store. One where they measure your feet. If people have the proper size shoe there would be less foot and back problems.

How long is a business day? -

It varies on the type of business. A standard business day is 9 am to 5 pm. However, a bank keeps different hours, being open longer on Fridays and closing at noon on Wednesdays and Saturdays. If you are referring to shipping then normal business days are Monday through Friday.

That s up to the individual business.

9am-5pm. 8 hours. Monday-Friday.

How does Avon Pay the Commission you have earned from sales? -

I have recently become a Avon representative and i am currently on my 3rd campaign.I was wondering how Avon actually pay you the commission you have earned ? As i have not received any credits to my bank account or had any cheques from them in the post.Any help on this would be much appreciated

After you collect payment from your customers, you will pay your avon bill. What you have left over from this amount is your payment.

Avon only requires you pay a percent of the sales (depends on your sales level). You collect the FULL amount and keep the difference. For example- you sell a lip balm for $1. You collect the $1 (plus tax of course). Avon will only ask you for .60 cents (if you are earning 40%). Hence you keep .40 cents. That is how you make your money.

You collect money from your customers and keep the percentage left over. You can join Avon in the UK at http://www.applyavon.co.uk

I sell Tupperware. After market research I decided it was easier than Avon

What business I can start with an investment of 3 to 5 lakhs in Mumbai? -

Please suggest except brokerage, share market related business or online.

There are a number of Businesss that you can start with very low investments, some of them are listed below.(Always look for niche markets or products)1) Customizing homes for old, infirm or sick people, or making homes child safe. Providing support railings, double doors and security devices.2) Making automated car covers, that not only protect your car from the sun, dust, bird droppings, leaves and thieves, but also reserve your parking space.3) Home maintenancee, many homes are empty, the owners are NRI s or old and they need paying of bills, cleaning, repairs and more, payments on a monthly or yearly or one time basis.These are some ideas, there is a need and so far no one has stepped out to meet them. You will succeed, there is no other option.

you can start your mess in and around some college and office area...am sure you vl get success in that busines
