Small Business - September 2007

I am starting an alcohol delivery service (like dial-a-drink), and was wondering, is there any kind of delivery database, that I could obtain, that would be suitable for this? Cheers.

this would not be a normal cafe. People would come to drink coffee, eat nice healthy foods, paint, paint models, come to open mic nights and maybe have some kilms going. The ppls art would be on the walk and would be available to be bought. I also would have lockers, and art supplys..to be bought or rented. I was also thinking about having seminars for different art projects through out the year... What do you think? How expensive am i talking? realisticly...looking for experienced business owners...or if you have any info that would help me out..Thankyou

I stamp the back and use a deposit slip. It seems people don't know the name of the store they're doing business with or something... I don't get it. Why would people leave the "To:" field blank? It happens on a lot of checks.

I do work for several small firms. I have a small firm that tends to pay slowly (I am supposed to be paid in 10 days but for them it's usually 30), but I've always been paid over several years. I do good work.

Two months ago I sent them a large invoice (about double the usual) because of doing a lot of work in a short time. After 53 days and about 4 reminders by email and phone, they finally paid me only 1/ 2 that invoice, saying they were waiting on some payments themselves. This never happened with them before.

They still owe me1/2 of that invoice plus two later invoices.

Having received a half payment a week ago, I don't even know how to start this conversation about payment with them again. At least they haven't asked me to do any more work in the meantime. They owe me several thousand.

Any ideas? Should I just give wait and give them some space, or what can I say or do or try get paid again before too much longer? Thanks for any help.

Hi, I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I'm only 13 years old, and I need to make 25$ in 11 days. I'm seeing RENT on Broadway with some friends, so I need money to buy a special souvenir that I really want. I live in a really small town, and honestly there isn't many babysitting oppurtunities, or too many elderly people to help out. My mom and dad don't have anything they need me to do, plus they don't have money they want to give me since they're already giving me ticket and train money. I can't get a real job since I have to be 15 to work, so it seems like I have no other options. AND ONLINE SURVEYS ARE NOT AN OPTION!! They're dangerous and stupid. So any suggestions or comments would be awesome! Thanks in advance!! =]

my friend creates really nice beats and have already made a couple of them. he is thinking of selling it to other people, and he also deciding if he should just create an album.

so if he creates a song,and plans to make it public, does he need to copyright it? what if he decides to make an album, does he need a record label to sign with?

also what are the benefits of creating your own record label?

thanks.

Now that the project is done, I sent in an Invoice to the company, who is now balking on my fees. Clearly we did not sign a formalized written agreement, but we were both so busy we completely forgot. However, my work as an electrical engineer is obvious ... I built and supervised an entire system! I have a copy of my schematics and other work documents that I took home with me upon project complete (as an archive). I am glad that I did now, because it is the only evidence that I have of my work now. Obviously we are both in error because neither of us (the company and myself as the independent contractor) signed a formal agreement. But the work was done, and there is no question they admit this as well. Any suggestions? I have received less than $3K total payment on a $75K invoice. I am having to borrow money to pay my rent, and so on, in the meantime.

I am very enthusiatic in starting my own business. Even though it has been tested and I am sure it will work, somehow I am very afraid to actually start it.. I don't know why is that since this is my dream and I really want this to work. I know I won't be happy it I won't see myself doing that. Why do I keep postponing that and.. looking for reasons not to start working?
