| How do I go about owning an Online Business privately? Posted: 03 Jun 2018 09:36 PM PDT I'd like to start an online business. However, I don't want my professional identity to affiliated with my online business whatsoever. How can I go about making my online business (and website) privately owned and making others unable to back-track who the business is owned by? Any good tutorials on this (or knowledgeable people here who can inform me on this)? Just how much secrecy can I have? POSTSCRIPT: For those bound to ask; no, it's not a porn site.

| Printer recommendation for home printing labels? Posted: 03 Jun 2018 07:18 PM PDT I make soaps and I do a lot of label printing of soap labels and packaging materials as well as stickers. I've been using a Canon Pixma, but the colors aren't very bright and lack depth. The ink is also very expensive for the quality. Can anyone recommend a great printer for under $600 that would be good for printing photo quality color and black and white labels and stickers? I'm looking for good quality and a decent ink system/price. [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for advice on selling my business Posted: 03 Jun 2018 04:54 PM PDT Hi everyone. I found a group of people who are interested in buying my business. It is structured as an S corp with 1000 shares. I own all 1000 shares myself. We are still in early negotiations but right now the deal is half the principle up front and the other half over the next 5 years. Should I transfer all the shares right away or should I try to retain partial ownership until the debt is entirely payed off? Any advice would be appreciated. And before anyone suggests to have them just buy the assets and disaband the S corp, The original corporation needs to stay intact because otherwise the new buyers will not be able to maintain the required licensing to operate the business.

| Potentially Starting an app business Posted: 03 Jun 2018 08:26 AM PDT I am potentially starting an app company. I already have my first job with it and will be getting around 15k initally to create apps and around £500 a month in commission from the apps. I need to spend around 3k for a a designer to design the apps and I will be building them in my own time. (After work and weekends). What is the best way I should proceed with this. My aim is to keep as much of the money as possible. Should I even start a business or should I just take the money under my name? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Jun 2018 04:46 PM PDT I've been using Line2 for 6 months for my business, having done about 100 client calls with it. The features and software are all fine, and work as expected. I really have only one complaint: call quality. I would gladly pay more for less delay and clearer voice quality. I understand this is affected by the other end, however typically clients are using cellular networks which are better than internet voice. Are all other 2nd-line services the same way? All anyone talks about is features and pricing, to me they all offer the same things. WhatI want to know is which one has better servers and better access to internet backbones. Are internet communications just naturally always going to be like this? How do these apps compare to hardline VOIP setups in office buildings? [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for help to catch business partner stealing profits Posted: 04 Jun 2018 12:58 AM PDT TL;DR I'm a minority shareholder (20/80) in a company that my friend and I created to start up and operate our cafe under. I had to take time off and was told I would have to forgo my dividends or sell up at cost price (to her). Now the business is 'breaking even' on the books, the date of this approximate $3000 a week drop of profit coincided exactly to the date I took time off. I am seeking advice on how to proceed with catching her out as she is not only stealing from me currently but devaluing the overall market value of my investment when the time comes to sell. Two years in and we are on average profiting approx 3000$/ week. I needed to take time off from the business for personal family reasons and was told by my partner I would have to forgo my dividends or sell my shares to her at cost price. We have no contract in place stating we must be employed in the company to receive dividends. I sought legal advice and made a letter of offer to her that she would need to pay dividends or that she could buy my shares for approximate market value, I was open to negotiation. She responded with a facetious response 'offer' that she wants me to buy her 80% shares. I am gathering from this she is not going to negotiate in a professional manner. I have never had a penny to my name and I worked hard over the two years (under minimum wage, no sick leave, holidays etc..) to build the business up to its current profitable status and don't want to just let it go because I have family matters to attend to (of which she is aware of the serious nature of why I had to take time off). I want to catch her out for stealing cash from the business, it is difficult because she does the paperwork and I know that she pays some suppliers cash and some on the books. Of late she has begun to make payments to usual cash suppliers through our bank. This must mean she is filtering the rest of the cash straight into her pocket. Obviously it isn't a clear cut scenario because cash is difficult to trace. I have records of spreadsheets showing the cash payments for a period of two years and the wages that were paid cash (at her behest, I wanted otherwise but she exploited everyone that worked with her). Is it worth my while to contact an accountant, show them the history of spreadsheets and the current takings (I have the Square app that allows me to see daily takings and it shows same takings or more each week as the past 6 months) and let them analyse it and possibly go to my partner with this evidence? Let her know it is either we negotiate legitimate sale of shares, dividend sharing or we can go to court for embezzlement? Any advice or direction would be very appreciated. I fell so helpless and taken advantage of. [link] [comments]  |
| Looking into buying a local small business - what to expect? Posted: 03 Jun 2018 07:43 PM PDT I'm looking at buying a local chocolate shop in town that has been in business for 12 years and has a great well-known brand. I'm calling a bank tomorrow to understand their requirements for a small business loan, as well as calling a lawyer who can run me through the sale and ensure it's a good deal. I have a couple questions/ concerns. Do banks issues small business loans to purchase a company? Will I be able to get a loan without putting personal collateral on the line? Do I need someone more business savvy than a lawyer to review the financials to ensure it's a good deal and provide me the right offer amount? I'm a bit stressed out and excited at the moment and want to know what to expect. Any advice is appreciated, thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| How to expand customer and/or distributor base with hand made beef jerky company. Posted: 03 Jun 2018 03:05 PM PDT Hey guys, long time lurker, first time poster. I move in about a week or so and the moving costs are stacking up. This made me realize that I wish I had a larger clientele. I have over 1k in product but can only move about $400 of it currently to my families grocery store. I'm located in Orlando, Fl. I don't have an internet gathering or platform for my business and I primarily deal with family and friend owned businesses to distribute my product. Any advice on how to expand? I have the means to expand production to suit whatever demands I can get myself into. I've been contemplating personally visiting mom and pop shops in my area to try and make new acquaintances, any tips on this aspect too? (I make original flavor, low sodium, mango habanero, BCAA marinated, as well as sweet and salty flavors, I can also ship. For background info) [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 03 Jun 2018 03:12 PM PDT Afternoon. I apologize if I didn't search the right terms prior to posting this, but I didn't see anything that answered my question. I'm preparing to open a rental shop and I'm looking for POS options, both hard and software. I was wondering if Square provides good features for that type of thing. Checking things out with a barcode and then back in a few days later, managing memberships (and the discounts that go with them), taking and returning damage deposits, etc. Thank you!

| How difficult is it to buy a new cargo van as a new courier business? Posted: 03 Jun 2018 01:55 PM PDT Hi, so I am thinking of starting a courier business starting with just one van for now. I've been looking at the Ford Transits that are north of $30K USD new. Basically, my credit score is unusable (in the mid 450's) because I've been unemployed for so long, I've had to let a lot of debt go into collections over the years. For this reason, I ask, with my credit score, would it be possible at all to obtain a vehicle so I can start working for myself? Edit: not looking to turn this into whether I should buy a new cargo, but to keep it as how successful have some of you been in acquiring the new commercial vehicle you needed as soon as you started your business.
