Biz Ideas

When you’re dreaming of starting a business, ideas can be like candy, or like yeast. You may snack away on them like candy, or they may help your business dreams to rise, like yeast in bread dough. We have a downloadable booklet, with 20 business ideas. It also has more ways to dream up your own business ideas. (Print copies of the booklet are available, $1 per copy to cover shipping.)
We also have an entire category of business ideas you can borrow or take inspiration from. A couple of examples:

• How to start a business today (helping others with social media)

Business Intelligence

• Retail Store Industry Benchmarks

Business Plans

Yes, you need a business plan. No, you don’t need a 40 page bound booklet or 5 pound stack of paper. Here are ways to keep it simple, but still figure out your direction.

• Simplify your business plan
• Hate business plans? I have alternatives
• Another business plan alternative: your calendar
• Another alternative to planning: experimenting

Getting Online

Getting your new business online is essential. Here are just the essentials for getting that done.

• Social media tools for small town businesses
• Choosing a website name for small town businesses
• Where to register a business online

Accounting and Bookkeeping

I know, I know. Everyone hates accounting. “Math is hard,” people say like a mantra. Well, time to get over it! You can get this, because we are going to make it easy.

• Do you get accounting?
• The easiest accounting system
• Simplified Small Biz Accounting and Record Keeping
• Simplified accounting for side businesses and micro enterprises

Business Structure

Too may people get hung up on this. Don’t worry about this part until you have already found the idea and started working on details.

• When to choose sole proprietorship is part of the How do I ‘become’ a business? section in Checklists for starting your first business.
• When not to be a sole proprietor: forming an LLC or S Corp
• Can a sole proprietor have more than one business?
• Cooperatives as an alternative business model
• Worker-owned cooperatives can work in small towns

And a couple of related questions, though not really about structure:

• Can you be self employed and on Social Security?
• Blending Business and Family

Accepting Credit Cards

Since many credit card processors lock new businesses into multi-year contracts, it’s better to get this right from the start. I’m a big fan of Square for most small businesses.

• Converting to Square for credit card processing
• Square changes the way Small does Business
• Accept credit cards with PayPal Here
