    Potential client asked If I'm insured - is this a deal killer if no?

    What G-Man said. If you're serious about your business, get a policy. Not sure where you are but I would guess a policy is only a few hundred dollars if it's a small operation.

    Today I got my first employee by accident

    MARKETING 
    I would not get a contract done by an attorney, etc. If you really want to, contact an labor law attorney, but the expense can be high. I employee a lot of people and think the best thing to do is come up with a commission agreement that you can both agree on. Perhaps agree to a 1099 for 90...

    The same thing happened to the founder of UPS and many other business. I have had it happen to me. How many times did Henry Ford go broke before he got Ford off the ground?

    Fashion Retailer Bebe Closing All Stores.

    This. Debt is evil and eventually will sink the ship. I have been buying up inventory from most of these failed companies including Sears. We just did several Sports Authorties last year. The debt load was enormous.

    Need a proper ERP with comprehensive inventory management system

    I have worked with several. There is no answer to your question without a lot of information. How many users do you have and what's your budget. That's the two things that a company is going to ask you when you contact them. ERP systems are very expensive. It can also be very expensive not to...

    Taxes - Software or Brick and Mortar

    TAXES | REGS 
    Don't use H&R Block. Find a small tax preparer that's well established. When you get bigger you will need a CPA. I use a CPA that's also a tax lawyer. Yes I have been audited by the state and the Feds. The state can be brutal. nt

    Quick Question for Those with Supplement/FDA Business Experience

    EXECUTION 
    I'm not aware of the requirement either. I'm not directly in that business, but I do know people that are. Do you have a link to the FDA requirement? I know John McCain was one of the people pushing to regulate all vitamins, so obviously he gets money from big Pharm. It's probably an industry...

    How do I go from a wish to burning desire?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Why don't you adjust your lifestyle first? You sound like me when I don't eat right. Work on that with some exercise for 30 days and see if your desire to produce comes back. Absolutely no refined sugar or fast food for 30 days and just 30 minutes of exercise a day. Do it.

    Day Trading

    INVESTING 
    I have day traded since 92. It's tough and very few make it. I started out losing 30k. That hurts. I'm also the type that doesn't like to lose so I found a mentor. I ended up prop trading for a while and most of my experience was learned though Pristine. They have since been bought by T3. My...

    Hi all.. glad I found this place

    INTRO 
    After reading though several pages of "Ask me anything about eCommerce (2015+)" I decided to sign up. I have many years of experience in Ecommerce and retailing. Currently own a big box retail store and sell some online. I lack a lot of expertise on Amazon, and that's what led me here. If you...

    Need a proper ERP with comprehensive inventory management system

    I have used big expensive ones and some of the less known ones. If you just want something for inventory check Sellbrite and Linnworks. We use Sellbrite because the way it handles variations is very simple. Is there a reason you need a full blown erp?
