Small Business - October 2007

Hi. I'm looking for a good idea of small business I can do in the school. I'd start in my class first and then I would like to develop it into a big business. Generally, I can start a comic rental business since my friends in the class love to read comic and I've done a polling to know what's the most favorite comic. The problem is, we may not bring any comic to school, it's the rules. So, I thought I can start by sell something small to be cheaper than the school cooperation. But my mom said it wouldn't be popular. So, any ideas?

I'm really interested in hearing people's experiences -- what were your challenges? Do you have any advice (for either etsy or paypal use)? I read 'PayPal for Dummies' online, but would love to hear other people's experiences before I jump in. Thanks so much.

I have some concerns about running my own licenced daycare centre.

I want to go to college and get my Early Childhood Education diploma and then get my degree in the same field -- then I want to start a licenced daycare centre.

I love kids and I am really good with them. I also always dream about having a business. This career option appeals to me also because I want to have several kids of my own and I'll be able to take care of them in my daycare centre and feed them the way I think is best, etc.. I'm 20 years old. My parents are telling me it's a no-no because running a business is extremely hard work and I won't have time for anything else. Is this true? Do you think I'll be able to have a great daycare centre and still be able to run errands and be with my husband (and kids)?

Don't get my wrong, I am ready to work hard. I know it won't be easy.

This had been a very busy month at work. There have been several employees out on vacations, etc...As well as a number of projects which had to be completed. As a result, some of my work wasn't submitted in as timely a fashion as normal. This apparantly has upset my manager. Who has spoken to several of my fellow employees about my performance this month, yet has said nothing to me. Really, everytime i've spoken to a fellow employee in the last week they've mentioned that manager has issues with me. What is the best way to approach this?

Someone close to me had a business up and running but lacked motivation. He then went into partnership with someone who was keen to make the business go places.

The business was already established, it didn't have any premises, but had all the machinery. The new partner put no money into the business, but did bring in alot of work and together they found some premises. The same partner started slacking. All he did was sell the occassional lead that came in from the newspaper. He caused alot of animosity among the employees, and speaks to them like s&*^. The employees will all go with the original partner as it's family. But... aparently, it would cost so much money to buy the new partner out, that the other feels trapped.

I won't bore you with loads of details, but the new partner isn't pulling his weight, yet shares the profits 2 ways with the original owner. Is there a way out?

I have started to make ceramics for use in the kitchen and need to call buyers and set it up so I can email them photos and details of my work. The trouble is I absolutely hate using the phone and need to know what to day without sounding dumb and amateurish, which I'm not - but you'd never know from the way I speak on the phone.
It has to be calls first, just emails won't do. Or will they? If you know anything about this area e.g if it's your job to receive calls like mine, then I would dearly love to hear from you. Thanks in advance.
