| Paypal is just, absolutely garbage. Posted: 29 Sep 2020 07:47 PM PDT So I recently made my first few sales with my new business. When I started up I made a new PayPal account for easy checkout on my website. A handful of customers used it. So when shipping, I gave paypal the USPS tracking numbers for each transaction and all that. Fast forward to 2 weeks after they have been marked as delivered, and paypal is still holding my money. I contact them, and 3 different paypal reps confirm that they have been delivered and say "we will try to release these funds asap". What? Now the fourth rep I'm talking to, after ANOTHER week of my money still inaccessible to me, tells me my packages delivered address does not match the customers provided delivery address. (Which is wrong, I've checked all of the addresses many times.) So now, I am expected to contact the customers and ask THEM to contact paypal and tell them that they got their packages, or paypal will continue holding my money ransom. Despite being extremely uncomfortable with the whole thing, I've tried emailing the handful of them but none respond. So I'm just shit out of luck. This honestly is such a let down, I wanted to be excited about my first few sales but I basically just gave out my product for free. Needless to say, I've removed paypal as a payment option. Edit: To clarify as I didn't explain the timeline clearly, the new PayPal has been verified for almost 5 months, I started it when I first registered my business. Also, paypal states themselves that if you provide tracking, money will be released within one day over delivery. Tracking has been provided, and these packages have been delivered for 3 weeks.

| My dad's ( a small business owner) lifelong best friend was just told us he has 2 months to live. Posted: 29 Sep 2020 12:54 PM PDT My question is what is the best way to support my dad through this? What would you as a small business owner want in this situation? What little things can someone else do to give you more free time or take some pressure off? I'd like to free up his time as much as possible so that they can spend time together and take as much pressure off so he can process this. [link] [comments]  |
| Do you follow your competitors? Posted: 30 Sep 2020 01:39 AM PDT After working with a few clients for marketing services, I've noticed that sometimes business owners are too consumed with their competitors and follow their moves every day. Now, I don't think you should completely ignore your competitors, but rather you should be aware of what they're up to. I started working on a software to automate this process and send weekly reports highlighting the competition's important social media posts and website changes. How often are you checking in on your competitors and what information is most important to you? [link] [comments]  |
| How to deal with bad reviews on ubereats etc? Posted: 30 Sep 2020 01:35 AM PDT Since covid i had to close the sit in and only do take away/delivery. For this im using ubereats and another local delivery site. On average i was at 5 stars at both sites for a while but then dipped to 4,5 stars. Eventually today after another 3 star i dipped to 4,4 stars on ubereats. I can write 1 message to the review but they cant reply to me. So i then asked for a feedback of what they disliked with my e-mail. Also no success. Now im thinking of making a feedback form on my site which perhaps helps. Overall they just give a review but never what they disliked so i cant improve on that. How should i be dealing with this? Also i have a lot of returning customers but they never seem to rate us. Anything we can do about that? [link] [comments]  |

| 10 Reasons Why a Mobile App Is a Necessity for Any Business (Especially a Small One) Posted: 30 Sep 2020 04:57 AM PDT Have you ever asked yourself a question, why to create an app for your business? If yes, this article) is a must-read. Again, if your business does not have an app and is doing well (at least so you think), this article is your must-read too. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 29 Sep 2020 02:47 PM PDT I am the point where I am ready to package goods for people to bake goods at home. I need help with the packaging. Do people prefer packaging where they they can see the product? Or is not being able to see what's inside the package okay as long as the packaging is visually appealling.

| Should landlord help retrofit office space to make it more ready for return-to-work? Posted: 29 Sep 2020 09:59 PM PDT Our office is in a cool converted old warehouse - pretty nice space. Haven't been there in 6 months but thankfully still solvent and paying rent. The space is not very well configured to comply with distancing requirements - although some minor modifications could make it much better. The ventilation system is also lacking. Anyone know what obligations the landlords might have to make the office space compliant with current standards? I'd rather not do a bunch of tenant improvements on my own dime.

| Someone wants to dropship from me. Downsides? Posted: 30 Sep 2020 03:41 AM PDT Someone wants to dropship my products, would anyone know the downsides and common terms such as who deals with customer service, shipping enquiries, who covers lost items and commission payouts etc? To be honest I don't really want to, as I'm proud of my brand image and this guys English and grammar are pretty bad, despite being a native English speaker. I can tell he knows very little about business. [link] [comments]  |

| When is the best time of the year to transition from an SSN to an EIN? Posted: 30 Sep 2020 03:03 AM PDT I've been in business 5 years and now that I'm comfortable that I'm here to stay, I want to move over to an EIN before I transition to an LLC. Is there a best time of the year tax wise to stop using the SSN and move to the EIN? Would like to make it as clean as possible so I don't have IRS issues. My fiscal year starts Jan 1. I will need to notify my state, bank, and IRS...is there any other common entity that needs updated as well that I'm missing? I should have started the business with this number...

| Posted: 30 Sep 2020 02:10 AM PDT Hope everyone is doing well, I have been pondering starting an online business for a while now and I did start a music licensing side hustle which has made me a little bit of money. I still feel really stuck for ideas even though it is a skillset I grew over three years and people are paying for it. I feel mentally stuck and wondering what other things I can do. Where did you get your ideas from and is it your full time job? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 29 Sep 2020 03:33 PM PDT I started a business doing woodworking and some metal fabrication. It's all furniture. I did not expect to get a steady stream of clients but I've got a ton of commissions which is great but I'm kind of in over my head. In terms of accounting and taxes I don't know much. I'm thinking of hiring a CPA but I also want to learn this stuff. So my question is, where's a good place to start? Should I buy QuickBooks and just nosedive? Also, is hiring a CPA a good move or is this something I should be doing on my own? I'm sure there're relevant details I've left out because I don't know they're relevant so feel free to ask about things I might have left out. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 30 Sep 2020 02:00 AM PDT Hello Business Owners! I am wondering what everyone uses to receive online orders? Do you build and host your own webpage? Do you use one of the many website builders out there? Or do you use something like Etsy? As always any advice or guidance is much appreciated! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 29 Sep 2020 10:13 PM PDT I've read a recent post about PayPal not releasing OP's money for no reason. I also wanted to integrate PayPal to my website but now I'm wondering what payment processor are you guys using? I want to accept the most types of debit and credit cards worldwide, and recurring subscription type payment is a must. Bonus question: do you handle the invoicing separately or the used service also generates it for you? [link] [comments]  |
| About to start an online business, but another website has the same name. Posted: 29 Sep 2020 05:55 PM PDT I've been building a website for about a year now, and am nearly ready to launch. Unfortunately, I've come to realise that the domain name of my website (.com.au) is the same as an already existing website (but as .com). So my website is example.com.au, and another person's existing website is example.com At the end of the other person's website, it says: © Example LLC 2004-2020 All Rights Reserved ® Am I going to run into issues by having the same name, but with a .com.au domain, and different styling? I can change my name if I absolutely have to, but would prefer not to if it's not necessary. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'd hate to run into any legal issues. [link] [comments]  |
| how to start a specialty animal treat business Posted: 30 Sep 2020 01:18 AM PDT I've looked up several articles and tried to find my state laws, but I just don't even know where to start. I want to start a business selling homemade hamster treats and houses. What do I need to do to do this legally? I'm in the USA, Washington state. I want to have an online shop, and sell to all the states at least to start out. Edit: to clarify I want an Etsy shop not an entire website [link] [comments]  |
| Accounting Qn on unpaid capital recognition on the BS Posted: 30 Sep 2020 12:55 AM PDT Not sure if this is the right sub, but r/Accounting is focused on jobs. Any mgmt accounting advice gratefully accepted. Just joined a start up that has 4 locations globally and looking over the books I noticed a Balance Sheet line item that is for the unpaid capital in one of the subsidiaries. Namely in that subsidiary's country, there is a paid in capital requirement though we have 20 years to pay it all in. So the parent recognizes the unpaid part as a Long term asset The account tells me this is correct but just doesn't sound right to me... [link] [comments]  |

| Are currency gains/losses unavoidable? Posted: 29 Sep 2020 11:34 PM PDT Are foreign currency gains/losses unavoidable? Im a US LLC so my home-currency is USD. If I have foreign-currency activity without converting to USD will I always have gains/losses? Let me explain: Say I have a GST liability account (CAD). I make a sale in Feb and collect $1000 GST. The CAD/USD exchange is 0.80 so my balance sheet will show a GST liability of $800 USD. On Apr I remit this $1000 GST to the CRA, but the CAD/USD exchange is now 0.70 so my GST liability is now $100 USD. I'd have to DR GST liability $100 & CR curreny gain $100 and pay tax on it. In this scenario, I recieved and remitted $1000 CAD to the CRA. I am being taxed on a gain I never realized. Is this simply unavoidable for transacting in foreign currency? [link] [comments]  |
