| Sold franchise business with sellers note, buyer not paying and in default of franchise agreement Posted: 05 Aug 2021 06:54 PM PDT Long story short my father was in the process of selling his multi unit franchise, the pandemic hit and the buyers lost funding. The business was sold with seller financing (interest only) and the remainder of the balance would be due in a balloon payment. While the owners have paid their interest only payments on time they have pushed the balloon payment back 4 times. Now the franchise, under their entity is in default of their franchise agreement. They have stated they cannot move forward with financing until the franchise default is cured. They would give no timeline. To make matters worse, my father is 10 percent owner of this entity and has received $0. According to them they are not profitable but not sharing their financials without pestering them. I do not think my fathers lawyer was the best as the promise note has no talk of collateral he could effectively take back should they default. Has anyone had any experience with a similar situation and how did it turn out? [link] [comments]  |
| Some of my employees are disrespecting me Posted: 05 Aug 2021 06:00 AM PDT I am a manager at a small start-up, and I manage a team consisting of 8 people. I tend to be warm-ish and welcoming and treat my team members with respect. I'm afraid that some members are taking my relaxed style as an invitation to walk all over me... one recent example was during a meeting, nonetheless. Criticism is well received on my end, but a line was crossed by one of my team members who complained about a project they literally referred to as a "useless waste of time" and that "You [me] should focus on... instead of wasting time". I let that slide during the meeting, as I did not want to create a scene, but I feel that I must handle it before this toxicity penetrates the entire team, bringing down morale and creating a dysfunctional environment. The disrespect here is very subtle, and if he were to use slightly different wording, this would not have been a concern (for instance, "I don't see much value in this project, and I believe we should focus our efforts..." would have been absolutely acceptable). I don't take these things personally, and I'm not an egomaniac, but there is a structure of hierarchy, and if there is no respect toward authority, we can not grow as a company. The above is just a recent example, there were a few other "incidents" orchestrated by the person above and another team member. Both happen to be some of my top people, and I'm not planning on terminating them to send a message. Any creative solutions you can offer? [link] [comments]  |
| Health insurance options for 1 employee Posted: 05 Aug 2021 04:34 PM PDT I have insurance from my wife's full time job. I have one W2 employee at my company and am looking to see how other small businesses do their benefits, specifically health insurance. The dental and vision sb plans I looked at require at least two enrollees, but I need medical/dental/vision for just one guy. Do I tell him to look at individual plans and I help pay for that? What's your experience/advice? Thanks in advance [link] [comments]  |
| How much should a owner make in profit Posted: 05 Aug 2021 09:49 PM PDT What is the rule of thumb that an owner or company should generate in profit. Ex. lets say a company makes a profit of $500,000 yearly in profit after cost of goods excluding employee wages, rent, utilities etc. What can be a realistic take home profit for the owner + company at the end of the year that is considered healthy after overhead costs. ** I'm aware every businesses has different overhead expenses and different margins of profit but just a general idea of what a small business owner should be striving for considering the amount of profit that is being generated.

| How Google Destroyed Us Overnight: The Devastating Impact of False Accusations Posted: 05 Aug 2021 05:00 PM PDT We entrepreneurs know the challenges of building a company. The amount of sweat, tears and sacrifice that we have to make as we start and run a company. We are also facing mounting challenges when FAANG are increasingly controlling every aspect of our business. Not only are we bound to use their services in building business in today's world, but we also have to follow every rule that they set for all of us. We are at the mercy of all of these giant corporations. In this post, we'll recount our own story of being falsely accused by the other party (and Google) overnight and what had dawned on us after going through this rollercoaster of an experience. Our business and reputation are at stake and the mercy of Google. How We Were Gaining Traction and Lost It All Overnight False allegations are a big problem in our society today, and it's not just celebrities who get attacked. Small and ordinary entrepreneurs like you and me can have their lives upended with a single accusation. That's what happened to our startup - FILT Pod. We provide reach and visibility for small business owners via engagement advertising. So many white-collar small businesses owners rely on us to stand out from the crowd on social media platforms like LinkedIn. Back in May 2021, I noticed a new Chrome extension for LinkedIn users. As I love what they do, I contacted the extension owner and expressed my interest in advertising on their website. While discussing the advertising opportunities during the video meeting, the owner highlighted the downloads and traffic he can bring, so he wanted a 50% cut of the recurring revenue from the monthly subscription. As a small startup, I didn't think it's a realistic expense, nor could we afford it. So I politely declined the counteroffer, and we bid goodbye to each other. I also wrote him a thank you note. I must admit, I was somewhat inspired by the extension. However, I also know how much more we can bring to the extension. Most importantly, how valuable it can be for a broad community of LinkedIn users around the world. With that in mind, we assigned and dedicated two of our software engineers two months to designing and developing a similar extension on the Google Chrome store. It's a free tool for all LinkedIn users to find the best hashtags to use on their postings. All of our team members also spent day and night testing the extension to ensure users' satisfaction. In addition, our marketing team spent countless hours outreaching LinkedIn users to test the extension and gather their feedback. I have never been prouder at this every moment. We come together as a team to brainstorm and improve an excellent tool for a wider community of LinkedIn users. As of late July 2021, our Chrome extension was gaining momentum and has rapidly gained supporters. We had reached a milestone of 380 installations, though it was dwarfed compared to our competitor at 5000 plus installations. We set our goal to achieve 500 installations by the end of Aug 2021, but all of them were lost overnight after Google received a complaint against us. With one single email notification, the giant tech corporation took our extension off the Chrome Web Store BEFORE any investigation into the legitimacy of the complaint. The complainant accused us of copying his code, which is not valid. We have never worked for him, so how is it possible to even know the codes? Google should understand it better, but that's fine. What saddens me the most, though, is shouldn't we at least have the right to defend ourselves before being judged as the guilty party? Instead of being innocent until proven guilty, Google decides that guilty, unless proven innocent, is the preferred approach. And we, the accused party, should shoulder the burden to prove our innocence. The complainant also said he did not authorise us to create a similar extension. However, we all operate in a free market, so why do we need his authorisation to develop a similar extension? Just because he had done it first, no one else should be allowed to create something similar? Should this be the case, we should only have iOS but not Android, or we should only have Google but not Bing. Take a moment and think of that same world we should live in. No consumers and society will benefit from a monopoly. It was devastating, mainly because our team at FILT Pod had been so pumped to share this free tool with all LinkedIn users. We gave our all to create this application. So that entrepreneurs and business owners could use it for free to boost their content visibility on LinkedIn and build their business. We have more plans and ideas in the pipeline to make it even better, but none of these matters now. "Google can reinstate these materials into the Chrome Web Store upon receipt of a counter notification pursuant to sections 512(g)(2) and (3) of the DMCA," is what they assured us in their email. Whilst we have lodged a counter-notification on this subject, we are left in the dark until Google gets back to us. As we are writing this, Google made us aware that the response would take longer than usual because of the pandemic. But how much damage and loss would we incur until then? If you're a large corporation like Google, perhaps you can afford to deal with the loss of business and recoup it. But entrepreneurs like us are in a more challenging and vulnerable position. What We Learned From This Experience After several sleepless nights and countless emergency meetings, we finally overcame our denial. We accepted the cruel fact: There's a system in place, but in the eyes of Google, it's a harsh one towards those accused of copyright infringement. In this era, the accused party shoulders the burden of proof because the presumption of guilt overrules the presumption of innocence. That is to say, you're guilty until proven innocent, not the other way around. We will continue to defend our rights to offer our tools in a free market and Google ecosystem, despite the demoralising experience. We shudder to think what this type of penalising system would evolve into, should everyone who is ever or soon to be accused take their fate lying down. Unfortunately, we believe that day will probably come sooner than expected. We will continue to stand true to our core, giving all the entrepreneurs and small business owners a voice. Because it is not the large corporations who have a deep pocket, but every business owner deserves to have a voice. And this is especially true in the world we live in today, where the top 1% controls 70% of everything. [link] [comments]  |

| A good modern POS system that will stay for a long time. Posted: 05 Aug 2021 02:24 PM PDT Hello everyone, my parents own a local asian grocery store and we have been around for almost 15 years. We do about 50-60k in sales each week. My mom does inventory the old fashioned way. All eyes and hands with paper, with one helper who does the same way. This takes hours and hours away from my mom who could be doing anything else (especially the weekends). Our POS is pretty old, I've tried messing with the system and it seems to have a inventory system but I want to implement something new and modern. Something I would be more familiar with. I'm excited to be able to contribute to the family biz and help my parents retire! I am doing my own research but I'd thought I'd ask around here as well. Thank you all in advance! Edit: Should mention that eventually (once I get a good understanding of management) I want to introduce the biz into online shipping, preferably through shopify. I was liking Vend but from what I've read so far, Vend doesn't intrgrate well with shopify? [link] [comments]  |
| How many hours a day do you work? Posted: 05 Aug 2021 08:14 PM PDT After running my own businesses (restaurants and tech) for 10+ years, the long days are starting to get old. I currently run 4 restaurants, M-F 9, to 9 ish most days. I feel like I'm missing the fun parts of life my other friends in the corporate world have (golf, softball, etc). The autonomy and freedom running a SMB is great but if we're never gonna use it, what's the point? Am I that far off what everyone else works, or am I totally off base? [link] [comments]  |

| My journey from nobody to online marketer! Posted: 05 Aug 2021 09:31 PM PDT Hey family! Two years back, I completed my graduation and tried a couple of things but didn't feel like building a career out of it. Then, I joined an online marketing agency as an intern. My internship was for three months and I learned a lot about online marketing, SEO, content creation, reputation management, and social media marketing. Then, I got an offer from them and I joined their team. I have been in a supporting role till now. Creating short content, managing social media pages, building backlinks, etc. now, I will be getting my own project! It is a NGO discovery platform named Helplocal. I look forward to your support from you guys! TIA! [link] [comments]  |
| Is having a different pricing model enough to stand out? Posted: 05 Aug 2021 11:07 PM PDT Hello, I'm a web developer so I build and design websites. I have a SaaS side project as well as a PaaS(platform). For my SaaS, it's basically normal web development you'd get from other custom website coders, but what makes it SaaS(or SaaS-like) is that it's subscription based as opposed to most developers that charge thousands upfront. I did this in response to the pandemic knowing very few businesses in my audience could afford the normal pricing model. My question is, is having a subscription based monthly fee over upfront costs an effective enough edge to have to set myself apart? Thanks for any input!

| Posted: 06 Aug 2021 02:25 AM PDT So I am sure everyone has heard of hashtags at this point but what exactly are they and how can they help your business on Social Media? I have had so many clients ask me about hashtags and if they are using the correct amount, how do they choose the rights ones, and why are their posts still not being seen? Well, let's talk about it! For this blog post, I am going to use the Wellness industry as my example as that is the niche of most of my clients. What are hashtags? Hashtags are keywords or phrases related to a specific topic or piece of content. These words are used with the pound symbol "#" placed in front of them. Using hashtags tells the specific platform you are using, what your content relates to, making it easier for them to place it in front of an interested audience (well, so we hope). People may search certain hashtags if they are interested in a particular topic or industry and therefore it is a great opportunity to get your products or services in front of the right audience. How Many Hashtags should I use? The amount of hashtags you use varies greatly, depending on which site you are posting on. However, much like everything else in life, quality is much more important than quantity. When using hashtags it is important to focus on two factors. One, the number of people searching or engaging with particular hashtags, and two, the number of other businesses, influencers, etc using that same hashtags for their posts. Getting this balance right is the key to hashtag success. Hashtags are split into different categories depending on their usage. Nano, Micro, Mid, Macro, and Mega. Nano hashtags Nano hashtags have between 1K to 20K posts featuring that same hashtag, this means that competition is low and your post has a higher chance of being seen. However, you don't want to use a hashtag that has no activity so therefore click on the hashtag and see how recently people have been using it for their posts. I would suggest using about 10 of these hashtags on your posts. For example:
Micro Hashtags Micro hashtags have between 20K to 50K posts featuring that same hashtag. If you are brand new to Social Media and are in a very saturated industry such as fashion or beauty, I would suggest using a combination of Nano and Micro hashtags only, for the first few weeks to get your posts seen and engaged with. I would then start using more popular hashtags as your engagement increases. For example:
Mid hashtags Mid Hashtags have between 50K-500K posts featuring that same hashtag. I would use about 6 of these hashtags on my post but only after building up some following and engagement on my previous content. 500K images are a lot to compete with and therefore it is important that you already have an engaging audience that the algorithm will then push your post out to further audiences. For example:
Macro Hashtags Macro hashtags have between 500K - 1M posts featuring that same hashtag. I would only recommend using about 5 of these hashtags per post. If you have been getting a lot of engagement on previous posts I would start incorporating these more popular hashtags into my content. When you search for a particular hashtag there will be two pages, "Top" and "Recent". Your goal is to get onto the "Top" page which can be done by having a lot of engagement (comments, shares, and saves) on a particular post. This is why I always suggest building an engaging audience using smaller hashtags and then incorporating the higher hashtags into my posts later on. For example:
MEGA hashtags Mega hashtags have 1M + posts featuring that same hashtag. These types of hashtags are highly competitive and unless you have a huge, engaging, following, I would stay away from these. If you want to try and use a hashtag that has over 1 million other posts using that exact same hashtag then I would only use 1-2 per post. For example:
How Do I Choose the best hashtags? In combination with the hashtag categories above, I would also focus on using location-based, industry-based, image-based, and branded hashtags. Location-based hashtags These could be in reference to where your store is based, where you make your products, where your ideal audience is, or where your picture was taken. For example:
Industry-based hashtags These are in reference to the industry your business is a part of, such as beauty, fashion, art, etc. Remember certain industries have a lot of competition so use hashtags that are related to your industry but feature in the nano or micro category above. For example:
Image-based hashtags Look at your picture, name different things you can see within that image, and then find hashtags to match. For example:
Branded hashtags I think it is really important to get into the habit of creating new hashtags based on your business. When we post on Social Media, you will always see us use the hashtag #fasxfis. Encourage your customers to use your branded hashtag when posting pictures of your products or services. Using branded hashtags is a great way to keep track of who is interacting with your business too. Always use branded hashtags when doing a competition or a giveaway such as #fasxfisfreewebsite, and encourage people to use that hashtag when entering. Speaking of giveaways, have you entered ours to win a free website designed by us? Enter Here! How do I know if my hashtags are working? So you have taken all of the advice above, put it into action, and still don't know if your chosen hashtags are working. The first thing to do is ensure that all your Social Media profiles are Business Accounts and therefore able to provide you with the best possible insights and analytics. Within these insights, you will be able to see how many people viewed your post through your hashtags. I usually do an audit of our posts every two weeks to see what type of content people are responding best to, but also to see if my hashtags are working. If I find one of our posts got a lot of attention through the hashtags we used, I will take note of them and use some or all of the same hashtags on another post to see how it performs. Hashtags are definitely trial and error and therefore it is important to have a place where you can keep track of the hashtags that are performing well for your business. Remember hashtags are just one part of the "Social Media Cog" and need to be used in conjunction with high-quality images, engaging and entertaining posts, as well as valuable content, to get the perfect formula. You can check out my other blogs on the type of content you should be posting as well as how to create a month worth of content in minutes. [link] [comments]  |
| How to schedule employees' shifts? Posted: 05 Aug 2021 06:20 PM PDT Hello there. I work for a small busines that is growing rapidly and is having some issues with the shifts management. We currently use excel sheets but is not working anymore, we plan to pay for a software in the future like WhenIWork, but right now we need to do it on our own. I would like to know if you have any suggestions on that matter, maybe SQL or python? I'm not an expert but I've done some minor stuff with programming languages and would be ok to work on it.

| Posted: 05 Aug 2021 09:54 PM PDT What do you guys think about an app that holds every single gas station on it and has all their reward programs. This way customers only have to make one account on the app and they are automatically signed up for all the gas stations rewards programs and so they can fill up anywhere and don't have to worry about signing up. I was also thinking about integrating apple pay to make a gas purchase and so all they have to do is enter a pump number on the app and as soon as the transaction goes through they can fill up their pre-authorized amount.

| Posted: 05 Aug 2021 05:51 PM PDT I've been looking up NAICS codes for my small business to find one that describes it as accurately as possible for a vendor's license, but I'm struggling to pick one that's correct. I make and sell Dreamcatchers, Amigurumi (crocheted stuffies), crochet scarves, wall decor, and blankets, and am working on paintings. Would Art Dealers - 453920 - be accurate? [link] [comments]  |
| Never just pay the minimum: SBA EIDL for instance Posted: 05 Aug 2021 03:20 PM PDT Hi fellow small biz people. Like many of you, we found 2020 to be a very hard time. We were grateful to get (and get forgiven for) 2 rounds of PPP, and we also got an EIDL loan, without which we would not have survived the year. Loan amount: $100,000 Interest rate 3.75% per year ( so another $312.50 a month) Minimum payment: $488 a month (so you barely are paying more than the interest) If paying only the minimum, it ends up like this: But, by paying $2000 a month instead: I just wanted to share this so that you can see it doesn't pay, to pay the minimum! That $2000 a month may be hard, but it saves so much time and money. [link] [comments]  |

| Lendistry COVID-19 Relief Grant Program Posted: 05 Aug 2021 04:57 PM PDT The California Small Business COVID-19 Relief Grant Program provides competitive micro-grants ranging from $5,000 to $25,000 to eligible small businesses and nonprofits impacted by COVID-19 and the related health and safety restrictions. On 7/14, Governor Newsom signed into law the largest economic recovery package in state history. The additional $1.5 billion expansion, for a total of $4 billion, makes California's small business relief program the largest in the country. The funding will support small businesses and nonprofits that have been highly impacted by COVID-19. They just announced three new rounds (7, 8 and 9). I applied during the first round and have been waitlisted all rounds. Anyone in the same boat? It is rather frustrating because there are applicants who applied in much later rounds and have gotten approval notices right away. Anyone in the same boat as me? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 05 Aug 2021 02:24 PM PDT So, I'm a 16 yr old resin artist. I've been trying to sell my work but it's kinda slow. I've already been dealing with depression and this is the only thing that's kinda helping me but my parents are insisting that it's gonna go nowhere for me and keep trying to butt into my business. I have no problem with them helping me but they're constantly putting me down and taking over in the process. Just a few minutes ago I was talking to a customer and my mom goes "They're just selling keychains, I've always wanted to do what she's doing but I never got the time. I have better ideas than them but I'm just letting her waste her money". That agitated me a lot because whenever I brought up resin crafting she would say it's a waste of money or it's boring, now she claimed it as her own idea??? I've been selling thru cashapp lately and I recently saved my allowance to buy a massive mold and supply box (200$+ worth of stuff). What can I do to get more sales and stop myself from emotionally shutting down? I'm too young for a website, I've been using Facebook groups but I dont gave a bank account, I just feel stuck and Ik shes going to keep doing this becus she does it ALL the time [link] [comments]  |
