I want to start a Reiki at home business, do I need a license? -

I want to start a Reiki business at home but was wondering if a license is necessary? If I have a Reiki certification is that enough to start a reiki practice in San Francisco? From what I know, I may either need a massage license, a business license, or both. Reiki is a form of energy healing which deals with what is called touch therapy. Although it is completely different from Massage, there are some similarities.

i would consider an LLC if you can.almost every business here in tx has the LLC title (limited liability corporation) it limits what people can sue you for

Stump on how to get this business going!? -

Hello, I have a small gourmet beef jerky business that has been in operation for a few years now, my problem is getting capital and or a investor to help me with my venture, I have been selling online for a couple years now with pretty good sales,and we sell in our local area at convienence stores,sportsbars.We make a very unique beef jerky and have one of a kind flavors like...PEACH BBQ...WHISKEY GLAZE...HUCKELBERRY HABENERO....PEPPER MAPLE...and more! my problem is my credit is not very good at this time and even if it were with the economy being so bad lenders wont touch me, just would like some sound advice on what to do next,I have a business plan that is almost complete and have done my homework on all potential capital possibilites,

contact me at fineguesser@yahoo.com. Provide me with a return address and we ll talk.

Can you package your product in a manner that it can be shipped, and stored for somewhat lengthy periods? ( I m assuming it doens t need to be refridgerated)offhand this sounds like a product that certain sports enthusiasts would enjoy...like hunters, hikers. I m sure you are aware of several other of your perfect customer type.Why not advertise directly to those types of people.Direct mail...it works..especially for food

What I think is this,You don t want the bank or credit card companies being your partner, thier not our friends.Keep working on your business plan.Take smaller loans from family and friends and thier family and friends. They say everyone has 250 people in thier circle. Heck, if you borrowed $50 from a thousand people.I would look for two or three more accountsand earmark that money for your venture capital.If you don t have a website yet, try Bizland.com its a good learning tool and very reasonable to build a web site.You might also try ecrater.com to open a free online store front.I was looking at Facebook today and you can use that to develop leads and myspace too.Then of course theres e-bay.It all might be a bit slower but you sure are going to save some interest.So Good Luck to you and soon you will be the King of Beef Jerky.

How can I sell homemade caskets and coffins? -

In my home country I used to make caskets and coffins and sell them, I can produce very good quality caskets, better than what they sell at Wal-Mart. I dont see much regular people in this business, so I would like to start my own Casket business. How would I go about doing this? Is it legal to just build and sell them from my garage?

Belly, I lost my job 5 months ago, but I ve finally found something I can do in my free time to make some exta money to help make ends meet. By no means am I making as much as my previous job, but every dollar helps. Try it yourself. http://www.americastopchoice.com/Work-At��

How much capital (approx.) do i need to open small coffeeshop in toronto? -

what are the rental cost (approx.) and renovation cost (approx.)? im intending to open somewhere in/near shopping malls or business district; thanks for your answers

Toronto is an expensive place...... and you will need enough money to get you through to the point where you will actually be making money - and you still have to pay your staff while you are starting out. So, you need enough to pay the bills and the rent and the salaries for about 6 months, and also enough to support yourself for a similar period - PLUS what you will need to renovate any place you might rent. Count on $ 60,000 - to me that s a realistic figure.

this is something that you will either have to reseach yourself or ask a property dealer or estate agentthe rental costs of a shop will depend on the area where you intend to open while the renovation cost will depend on the type of renovtion you want to get done and materials that will be used for it, it is my guess that it will be anywhere from CAD $ 5,000 to 15,000 - the rest you can check out by getting the estimates of what you want

Would a British architects drawings be approved in an American city? -

I need to submit drawings for a building permit and I know someone who s married to a British architect. I know they have different code in the UK and I m unsure if he s familiar with US code. Would my local government accept his stamped drawings? Would the fact that he s part of a British firm make it unacceptable?

Every city in the US can have different building codes, so the architect will have to work with the people who are doing the actual construction to modify the building to suit the city, and obtain the permits. A building in the cold north would have different heating and cooling needs from one in the hot south. The soil stability in the area, and the building height would require different foundations. Parking areas, building setbacks, termites in the area, and a thousand other things enter into the equation.
