Answer 1

Check with your Municipality.

If you are interested in selling things - why not supplement your efforts with an on-line business?

Here's a great resource for you:

Good Fortune to You. Congratulations on your initiative.

Answer 2

Check with your city hall or courthouse and they can fix you up.

You may need a tax number while you are their also.


Also ...Do......Get an assumed name form and give your business a name. Do not use your name because if you later want to sell the business the new owner will not want your name on it. Cost very little and last for seven years here.

1. Permit. (License or is that the same)

.2.Assumed Name Form. Complete it while there. Have a name for your company/business ready. You will have to check to be sure no one else is using it.

3.Tax number. Check while there to see if you will need one. Probably will.

4. Insurance.

If you are starting out new most cities have free start up classes so you know what needs to be done. Record keeping, Taxes, Social SecurityTax, Unemployment Tax, Medicare and any other withholdings your state may require. I had to do a quarterly tax statement and pay an estimated tax.

Talk to a bookkeeper or someone with knowledge of what you are wanting to do before you really do anything.

There may be more that you are aware of. Better to be sure than sorry.

I used a monthly bookkeeper whenever I had a small business and she always kept me straight.

Answer 3

try your local city hall. in my community this is where you get a peddlers license.
