| Need help finding a decent POS system in japan Posted: 01 Sep 2019 01:42 AM PDT Hello everyone, My wife and I are running a small grocery store business in japan that's steadily growing. We're getting kinda tired of having to count inventory and saving small receipts for tax so we need a POS. I'm looking for anything that supports a customer facing display(not a pole display), shows current inventory, sales percentage and preferably cheap. We've tried to find some solutions online but the amount of results was overwhelming to say the least. If anyone knows of a solution. I'd be very grateful. [link] [comments]  |
| Looking to expand my landscaping business from seasonal to year-round. Posted: 31 Aug 2019 04:21 PM PDT Good evening. So as my title says I'm looking to expand my small 4 month old landscaping business into a year-round service. my 2 brothers and I started a landscaping business this summer and it went well. We mostly mow lawns and cut down trees. We have paid off all our gear and our car. We have about 20k left in the company and we want to use that money and maybe some of our own to expand into something different, since its the end of summer and we have the time. Things we have thought about -Snow plowing (still an option but expensive equipment cost and unreliable work) -buy a truck for a moving service (still an option but not sure about the pay for the jobs) AAaand some other things but my head just went empty so I'll update when I think of it. It has been a real learning experience since we started and I just wanna keep going. If you have an idea for a service a landscaping business could provide during the colder, more depressing months I would be happy to hear them. [link] [comments]  |

| Need help with suggestions for a delivery only restaurant. Posted: 01 Sep 2019 03:16 AM PDT Hey everyone, I manage an Asian food delivery service in Dubai. I have recently come across a service that will deliver promotional material directly to the client's door step.
Anyone tried anything that has been very effective in terms on converting the client? Looking for suggestions and ideas that might help. P.S. Our product is great. Once the person tries us the probability of them using our service is very high. Thanks in advance for everyone's input. [link] [comments]  |
| Fitness Clothing Line Business Help Posted: 31 Aug 2019 09:50 PM PDT I am starting a Fitness Clothing Line Business and I'm going to try to keep it "Local" at the moment since I don't know how to make a website and I don't know how to ship my products outside of the U.S. I designed my very own Logo and came up with the Name of my "Business". I also wrote a paragraph on what and who my Business stands for which would be a reason on why I came up with my name. The way that I am starting off is by selling my T-Shirts to my friends and family members. I asked through Snapchat, "If I start a Clothing Line Business who will support my products?" I posted a picture of a shirt I designed online and 18 of my friends told me that they will buy that shirt. At the moment, I ordered a total of 20 Shirts (Sizes from XS - XL) to be Screen Printed at a good price since it's a friend who is doing this for me. I'm currently researching on how to make my very own website and how to ship my products to my customers. How long should I wait to register my Business and to make an online store?

| Posted: 31 Aug 2019 12:28 PM PDT I feel like people don't often respond to surveys or emails - I have the time to call patients in the afternoon - do you think this would be off putting? My husband is the dentist and we have 6 employees. The dental practice is established, and most visits are the patients' first contact with my husband (the new dentist). The previous practice had no online presence at all, never did any sort of marketing / patient outreach, or anything to gauge satisfaction. [link] [comments]  |
| AUS - business loan from personal account tax? Posted: 31 Aug 2019 11:48 PM PDT Hi guys. I'd like to "donate" some funds from my personal account to the business for capital. When filing taxes with the ATO. How do I include this to the tax? Is it a expense since its only a loan? Australian company. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 31 Aug 2019 06:55 PM PDT Starting a fashion line. I am keeping this vague because the product I am producing is only made by one other company. I have made one proof, but not used to working through the fashion industry. Does anyone have suggestions? [link] [comments]  |
| Freelance/Independent Contractor Agency Posted: 31 Aug 2019 03:46 PM PDT I'm looking to create a production agency that would supply businesses, agencies, and individuals with producers, videographers, editors, etc. on a per project basis. I would fundamentally be acting as the middleman, but I would be paying the freelancers and independent contractors. This seems like a huge legal undertaking, so I'm trying to understand all facets of it. Anyone have experience doing something like this? Any advice and books or articles would be useful.

| Can I start my own private tutor business? Posted: 31 Aug 2019 02:18 PM PDT I have a B.S. in Bioengineering and M.S. in Mechanical engineering with a previous tutor job long ago. Would I be able to start my own private tutoring company where I can provide weekend sessions and at home morning tutoring to home-schooled children (math/science)? I work in the afternoon so I have time in the mornings only, but am free on the Weekend. I'm job searching and in order to make at least $200-300 a week, would this be a possible venture? Do i need certifications? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 31 Aug 2019 09:35 AM PDT I am 32/M, business is located in Philadelphia, PA, USA. A couple years ago, my dad was very sick. Before he passed away, he signed his business over to me, my brother, my sister, and my mother. My mother, brother, and I all have 26%, and my sister has 22%. As per my dads wishes (plus incompetence of my mom and sister), my brother and I run the show (there really was no other option, we were groomed to do it). My brother and I split the profits in (almost) half, and my sister, who doesn't work at all, gets 10%. My mom gets a weekly paycheck of $600 as requested by my dad. She got everything else though including all savings, all investments, a rental property, and the payed off house she lives in. Anyways, I have held these certificates of shares for the past two years. Out of nowhere, my mom wants her copy. Technically, I believe it is hers to keep. They have just been in my possession for the past two years. She called me tonight and demanded them. I may have also upset her because I denied her and my sister access to the cameras at work. They actually are down at the moment, but I just told them I wasn't giving her the new password. The thing is, she scares me and makes me nervous. For two years before my dad passed, I know she was having an affair with a family member from my dads side. I caught her. This guy is a manipulator and shady. I'm wondering what this guy could manipulate her to do. What can my mom possibly do with her certificate of shares? As I was told by the lawyer who split the business, if shares are sold by either of the shareholders, it must be agreed upon by all shareholders. Simply put, I just don't trust my mom and her potential. I want to protect this business, my dad's legacy, and of course my livelihood. [link] [comments]  |
| Question for restaurant / juice bar owners Posted: 31 Aug 2019 11:43 AM PDT How is the produce you receive packaged? For example, do your lettuce, kale, microgreens, etc. arrive in reuseable containers? In crates? Plastic bags? I run a new urban farm in Toronto and would like to start making deliveries in a way that balances convenience with environmentally-friendly packaging. [link] [comments]  |
| Pre and post-investment expenses sharing between partners Posted: 31 Aug 2019 01:09 PM PDT Hi all, I am planning on opening a restaurant with two other investors. I will invest 70% and they will invest 20 and 10% respectively. We are in the planning phases and are seeing attorneys and accountants and working on a visa for an executive chef. My question is, should we be splitting attorney consultation fees and other administrative fees between us by our percentage investment or divide the costs between the three of us evenly? Most of this will be relatively small amounts of money. I think theoretically no matter how we divide expenses that it can be reimbursed from the restaurant once it is profitable anyway. Does anyone have experience with this or any advice? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 31 Aug 2019 03:41 PM PDT Hi, I have a few names in mind for my new tech business, have around 10 names but have no clue which one to pick, could I dm a few people for their opinions? [link] [comments]  |
| Co-ordinating marketing/manufacturing/R+D to reinforce each other? Posted: 31 Aug 2019 11:05 AM PDT For example a burger restaurant might have a great outcome creating new products to also be eyecatching and easier to market. Interesting products/features helps with the marketing material. The new product lines (healthy food, juices, on the go food) can drastically alter marketing and branding and new customers. This can create a new brand image that can allow the company to increase price, or sell different products. Should a company focus entirely on tweaking branding/customer perception? Parlay together a joint effort in marketing/manufacturing/R+D to create create branding/customer perception? And should they do the same thing with 5 year, 10 year goal to figure out what the requirements are? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 31 Aug 2019 01:33 PM PDT I own a small business where I design and sell custom made clothings to women. I never got any venture capital or loan, Basically I plunged all the savings i had saved from my uni into the business, which isn't much but I didn't mind starting small. I got an industrial machine, a space and some materials to start with, then I started sourcing for loans from banks and microfinace institutions to which I've been turned away at every point. I need a weaving machine, an industrial iron and a generator (power is unstable in Nigeria) and of course some money for influencer marketing as the business is primarily based on Instagram and Facebook. Nigerians spend millions of money going to China and turkey to get clothes, my business is focused on getting those clothes done in Nigeria for much less. I'm looking for investors to help keep my business afloat. [link] [comments]  |
| Thinking about starting a pumpkin patch Posted: 31 Aug 2019 12:39 PM PDT This is a very preliminary idea but I have the land and the knowledge about planting and growing produce. I'm not going to lay out all the factors now since it is so preliminary, but I want some general input What are some hurdles/regulations that I probably dont know about or would come across?

| How to deal with customers who want discounts Posted: 31 Aug 2019 05:39 AM PDT I run a custom clothing company with one product in a very niche market. It's a kind of thing that you really only order one of although some people have ordered more than one for themselves but that's extremely rare. It's not wedding dresses but think along those lines. I branched out to another market and that's a market where you would purchase more than one but not for yourself. More as gifts. I do have a discount program where if you buy five you get one free. That policy is not posted anywhere on my website. I just inform those who order in bulk that is the deal and they are pleasantly surprised which kind of gives me an edge because then they're really happy because it was totally unexpected. But I have gotten customers that think that any time they order more than one they should hit me up for a discount. How do I nicely tell them that if they wouldn't walk into Abercrombie & Fitch and say that since they're buying four pairs of pants, they deserve a discount, they shouldn't automatically get a discount from my custom clothing shop simply because they're ordering 4 of an item? The only profit I make is my labor charges and I am not putting myself on sale! I'm as polite as possible and as far as I know I haven't lost any sales because of this but I'd like to put a disclaimer or a notice on my website that says there are no bulk discounts but there really are and I've had people actually order more items once they find out there's a discount but I don't want people thinking they get a discount any time they order more than one. I am the most expensive person on the internet that I have found that makes the product that I make and my business has grown exponentially in the three years that I've had it. I do not do any kind of advertising. Everything is word-of-mouth so I am eternally grateful to my customers and I don't want to lose potential customers because other people are bad-mouthing me but will those potential customers see through that? That in reality they shouldn't be asking for a discount just because they're ordering more than one because they know it's tacky? I think it kind of grates on my nerves that people think that because I'm a small business and do custom work that I should be giving people discounts for stuff but if they walked into a department store they would never ask for a discount unless it was something that was part of the sale. But I don't have profit margins on the components of what I do like the fabric and stuff like that so it's only labor that I'm making any profit on. I jokingly call my Sewing Studio my Sweatshop but I don't have any underage kids sewing stuff up for me for 3 bucks an hour LOL this is all me and my time is extremely valuable! I've got 45 years experience and I think I should be paid accordingly. [link] [comments]  |
