what is a fair way to set up a small sales company selling referrals over the internet?
Q. My friend and I have an opportunity to generate leads (sales referrals) for an existing brick and mortar business. The company has a successful affiliate and direct sales program that pays $100 per referred sale. They currently have no Internet representation. My partner and I plan to generate sales from Internet marketing only - no traditional sales. What is the best way to legally set up the business to protect our interests as a company and my interests personally?
Asked by Grant Brown - Sun Oct 7 01:59:11 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. When you say "protect our interests as a company," do you mean the company you are referring people to or the one you plan to form with your friend? It really depends if you are employees of the brick and mortar business. If you aren't, you could set up a limited liability company (LLC) and have the brick and mortar business pay your company (the LLC) for the referrals. You and your partner would then file the appropriate tax forms for your partnership.

Is there a way to report a deceptive website?
Q. For instance, an American website guarantees "100% safe shopping," says they use SSL, and then takes credit card orders in clear text with no option for a secure connection.

What are the average profit margins for selling new baby items (furniture, toys, clothing)?
Q. Thinking about starting a brick and mortar business selling maternity and baby items, including baby furniture, baby toys, infant clothing, breast feeding equipment, etc. but I'm having trouble finding out information on the general profit margins related to selling these items.
Asked by pivoss - Fri Mar 30 21:06:03 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The profit margins would be the same as most other retailers: 30-60%. Knowing the profit margin is important, as is knowing what your market will bear, or knowing whether you even have a market. To know this, you must do local research. Equally important to profit margin is your break-even-point. Good luck.

Personal Income Tax Question: Nevada S Corporation but live in Illinois?
Q. I'm about to incorporate my (just started), online business as a Nevada S Corporation. I live in Illinois. I work full time. My money from my full time job funds my online company. Will I be able to write off my losses (if I lose money) on my IL state and federal taxes? Will Illinois recognize that my salary from my employer is helping to fund my online business or because the corporation is in Nevada and there are no income tax in Nevada, IL will not recognize that I am using my salary to buy merchandise to sell, pay for contractors, etc. for this online only (not brick and mortar) business. Thank you.
Asked by NeerjaP - Tue Feb 20 15:40:54 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. It really doesn't matter which state the S-corporation is incorporated in. The S-corp will need to file state tax returns based on where the S-corporation is headquartered, where the company books are kept, where the company assets are. As far as your individual return, as an IL resident, you are taxed on your worldwide income. That means you are subject to IL tax on your distributive share of the S-corp income. If you have a loss from the S-corp, then the loss will be deductible as a loss on your IL return.

A. Depending upon how easily accessible your courthouse is, I would start there for licensing purposes. Make sure you get the low-down on how your city/town does business. Second, I would hit up my favorite tax advisor for information about reporting taxes and you'll also find hints there about what all you can write off, and boy, can you write a lot of things off in a home business. Lastly, check into advertising, business cards and get the word of mouth out about your business. I could be wrong, but you're not baking anything or spraying chemicals or doing anything far-out there, so I think you'll be surprised that starting a business is easier to do than you think. It's keeping it running and successfully--that's the trick! I'll bet you… [cont.]

A. Hi, A. If you get your business name registed at the Secretary of State (in Arizona its like $15), you can use your social security number as your tax ID, if you register your business as a "sole proprietorship". What you would have to provide to your wholesaler is your business name registration showing that you are "so-and-so DBA such and such" (DBA means "doing business as..."). Also if you are doing handmade stuff, check out etsy.com . It might be a good way to sell the stuff.

How to close my business gracefully, while transitioning it to a web based business?
Q. I need to close the bricks & mortar location of my business. It's not profitable and the overhead is too high. I would like to keep the name of the store as still in business, just transition to online-only. How do I do this gracefully without making myself/business look bad to the general public? My business is in a small town and people talk. When I moved my store a year ago, people made all kinds of rumors, etc... about me and my store, and now I know they will do the same. How do I handle this? Eventually, I would like that branch of the business to be absorbed by my other business, but how do i continue to act like the first business is viable and operational, even though it's closed? I hope I'm not too confusing.

Q. I own a business. Its a small business. I don't have an actual office. I run the business off of my computer basically. I have an P.O. Box where I ship everything out of. We sell clothing online, 100% of our sales come from our site. My question is do I need a business license because I have no brick and mortar store. My business is virtual. I have an EIN, so do I need a business license? I am located in georgia by the way... Thanks guys! IDK if this helps but I am a sole proprietor. Atlanta, Georgia

A. No matter what municipality (city,town,etc.), you need a license. each city, will have their requirements online or at their Administration building. If you are in an unincoorporated area such as, out of the city but still in the County. You need to see your County Tax Assesor or the office designated by your County.

A. (in response to dt) Billboard has been around for decades, and certainly underwent a transformation from "brick and mortar" to become whatever it is today. I regards to Yahoo!, I would start by discussing its primary source of revenue. In the past many ad dollars on the internet came from other website (who got that money from unwise investors). This was a very unstable enviroment for the big players like Yahoo!. Now that thier clients are predominately "brick and mortar," Yahoo! has the stability of income to invest itself in other non-primary services. I hope this at least helped you to brainstorm. Good luck with the next 3 hours.

Will obtaining my B.S. via distance education significantly hurt my chances at getting into a good B-School?
Q. I am an IT in the Coast Guard, and I am 12 credits shy of receiving my B.S. in General Business. My school is a small, bricks and mortar private business school (Nichols College), and I am using their online program to get my degree (I am stationed on a ship). Will this kill my chances at getting into a good MBA program? Also, can work experience while I am getting my undergrad (5 years of IT technical work and management) count towards work experience required to get into top schools? I want to go part-time.Thanks for your help.

A. Are you talking about Nichols State? In Louisiana? Technically the B-school should treat all accredited uni degrees equally. But in actuality they don't. However, I think you could make a strong case for yourself in an interview (and in a cover letter). You are obviously committed and determined- two very valuable assets in an MBA program! And yes, you can use your experience to your advantage. You're just going to have to sell yourself! Email me if you think I can help you with anything more specific. Good luck!
