Groisamomma, it's roxyroxsworld.blogspot.com, I only blogged the first 3 days after opening it so there's not much there, but go ahead and check it out.
Yes Squishy, I live in Orange County, Monroe to be exact. |
The OC Chamber of Commerce had retired business people who donate their time to help others set up their business and guide them through it. It is a great resource. They set up a five year business plan for a friend of mine for free and helped her get a bank loan with the plan. She basically had free consultants. Maybe this program still exists.

| Ok all done. I removed it. Thanx again for letting me know. I wasnt even aware that the link is still there, let alone that it led to a dirty site. Again, I apologize.

| PHB, in Lakewood there's the UEZ-Urban Enterprise Zone program that pays for part of the start-up costs and covers a percentage of the advertising costs as well. Check if they have some sort of program like this where you live.

| I hate to say it but if you can't handle phone calls then a business is probably not the way to go.

2. Make sure you have a selling point over your competitors.
3. do the math. How much will this cost up front . Do you have that amount?
4. Make yourself a legal biz. Either sole proprietor or open an LLC.
5. Open a business checking.
6. Order inventory.
7. Build website.
8. Set up a Merchant account so you can accept CC payments
9. Go live
10. Make money
11. Go on vacation
