    B2B Faulty goods only 5 days old supplier only wants to repair

    Definitely worth sending a letter of intent to file for recovery of possessions. Usually this is more effective than petty squabbling between supplier/manufacturer/consumer. Be sure to clearly state that you entered into a contract with the supplier who under the sale of goods act must provide a...

    2 Months - Sole Trader or LTD - 100k

    Definitely agree! It is shocking how many people forget that turnover is only what your business is bringing in. After expenditure my e-store walks away with roughly 19% profit margins but as a second income it suits me fine as I'm currently working on several projects. 100K turnover should...

    Help I need to become a "Salesman"

    Have you thought about building a commission only sales team? In Glasgow, we have loads of students who have spare time and no definite work so they spend their spare hours canvassing B2B for a small percentage of your profit. This is not only an excellent way to bring in more sales as...

    A new concept for self employed professionals

    Yeah from what I've looked at PPC seems to be the best form of marketing and you are 100% correct it is very expensive but I may try to stay within hardcopy such as billboards and large outdoor advertisements, sponsorship of events and local/regional sporting teams etc. I am looking at hiring a...

    A new concept for self employed professionals

    I have already received a quote for dedicated hosting for £42 per month from a close friend who is a local supplier (Glasgow) and I didn't take into account the marketing costs as I haven't received any solid quotes for services required. When it comes to the website I have received a quote of...

    A new concept for self employed professionals

    Im not charging them to bid on the jobs available I'm charging them to advertise on our site and this is aimed at self employed persons who don't have the skills or time to build a personal website for their low level business. There seems to be no medium rate advertising platform which actually...

    A new concept for self employed professionals

    My main idea was that by not being involved in the handling of financial transactions between professional and client I SHOULD reduce costs relating to merchant services etc. The only real cost would be, exactly as you stated, marketing. When it comes to niche market placement I am not keen on...
