I’m going to buy a car in the name of my business, has anyone done this before? What should I be aware of? Higher insurance bc it’s commercial, higher interest on loan? Trying to get a good idea before I deal with the dealership.

Is a CPA worth it if your business didn't make much revenue?

This past year my partner and I created a service-based LLC together in Texas. We are completely new to the business world and have little to no experience with filing taxes, staying up to date with forms, etc. We grossed $10,510 together, which each of us profiting $4,000. Along with another job, my income was less than $25,000. My question is, would it be worth it to hire a business tax expert when we really didn't make a large profit?

How do I get my home kitchen approved to sell homemade foods? UK

What are the basic requirements that are needed to pass an inspection from trading standards? I have an electric oven & hob. My kitchen is open plan and we have a dog but he sleeps in the living room. Our back door is at the end of the kitchen so he has to enter the kitchen at some point. We have slate tiles and wooden worktops. I'm worried it won't pass dut to the wooden worktops. Is there anything I can do to modify things so it passes inspection? Should I get a metal counter protector to work on? Do I need to create a seperste cupboard to hold my dry food & cooking equipment? I only have one sink downstairs, a dishwasher and one double fridge. Also does anyone know what happens during a home inspection? I've tried looking online but I cant find any tips on what's required.

Need advice for getting back into my failed small business selling affordable makeup

Hey everyone, I started a small business selling affordable makeup around 2 years ago but unfortunately, it didn't work out and I had to shut it down. However, I am now planning to reopen the business and try again. I would really appreciate any advice or tips from experienced business owners who have gone through similar situations. One of the challenges that I am facing is that the lashes that I have are too big and long. I am not sure how to approach this issue and make my products more appealing to customers. Any suggestions on how to deal with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!

Good idea is a bad business

I already run a successful small business. My heart wants to start a seasonal business. My idea is to rent kids and adult snow clothes. Where I live Many “flatlanders” drive to the mountains for a day of snow play. They either dress inappropriately or buy snow clothes then resale them on FB. I doubt this would make much money, and things would be stored for 8 months out of the year. I have a passion for encouraging outdoor play, and others have said it’s a good idea. But it doesn’t really pencil out. If it was a non-profit I could solicit donations which might make it work? This would be a side hustle for me-kind of a hobby. Is there a way to make it work? Or does not every good idea come to fruition?

Aside from google, where else would one generate leads from? I use to think yelp was/is one of the major lead generators. Second question in text.

I’m looking to start up an llc soon. I want to know how to generate leads. Second, I don’t know anything about starting/running a business. Would I I really benefit from paying for the premium plans on LegalZoom, Incfile, tailormade etc. Also, as a total newbie which one would be best for me?
