    Staff - What to do?

    They're riding advertising bikes and walking around with mobile billboards on their backs. I've used agency staff before but it's really expensive and would like to cut out the middleman.

    Staff - What to do?

    Hi, I run an outdoor advertising business and get work across the North West. I don't have any actual staff as the work is sporadic and can be right across the North West so I constantly need new staff in different locations. What do I need to do to make sure that they're legit, insured etc...

    Customer has put in a fraudulent credit card chargeback

    Hi, Hope someone can help, I sold quite an expensive item (about £500) to a company. They complained that they couldn't get it to work, they sent it back to me, I showed that it work and sent it back to them with a lot of email support in between. All of a sudden I've received an email from...

    Advice regarding a training company

    I think they wanted to send us a group of learners and we qualify through them through our own funding. Yes we offer nationally recognised, accredited courses through RTITB and EdExcel. We've applied to be recognised by the SFA, finding out any day now if we've been successful. Would really...

    Advice regarding a training company

    No we already run courses for private companies, really want to get working with unemployed and young people though. They've always just said that they're happy to work with us but that we need to have funding.

    Advice regarding a training company

    Hi Ian, Thanks for that, we've got a few contacts with the job centre but unfortunately we need to have funding to offer the courses (keeping our fingers crossed that we secure some funding any day now!)

    Going Limited

    Hi everyone, I've been selling online for a while now, I'd like to make my business limited, I still work for my employer 4 days a week though - if I go limited would this effect my tax code in any way? Also, does anyone know how time consuming/difficult the paperwork is after you're setup as...

    Protecting my product

    Hi, I'm looking at getting a style of sock made with a specific type of print, is there any way I can stop other businesses copying my idea as there will be no logo on them, it's quite generic but it's a really good idea (I hope) - so i don't want it to be copied as soon as I bring them out!

    Getting an 0800/0845 number to go to your mobile phone

    Hi, I can now take payments over the phone, as I tend to be between 2-3 different locations having a landline isn't really any good for me as I'll miss a lot of calls. Obviously I think having a mobile phone number on the site would make it look a bit amateurish so I'm looking at getting an...

    Outdoor Advertising Business

    Thanks Jucbad - will look into Thomson Local! That sounds really interesting Steve, do you have any images of them? I use mobile billboards, they're a large advertising unit worn like a backpack that are fully mobile and can be walked into city centres and other built up areas.

    Thinking of Upgrading to Amazon Pro

    I've been selling on Amazon now for about a year - looking at going PRO mainly as I want to list items that are not currently on Amazon (products that I import with my logo on). I've seen that it's £25 a month - do they take a smaller % of the fees associated with a sale? I've had a look on...
