    Business stolen overnight.

    Must be far more to the story then you've said. It doesn't make sense. Anyhow, my first port of call would be the person who has 'done' this to you. Approach calmly, and ask for an explanation.

    Sick Pay For Starting a Bar Fight...

    Is she a good employee? If so cough up and discuss it with her when she comes back in. Use it to educate her. She's young, we all made mistakes at that age. If she's not a good employee just let her go.

    Solicitor won't give advice on lease he produced for us 6 yrs ago unless we deposit £600.00!

    I think you are being unreasonable I'm afraid. I'd guess if your query could be answered quickly they'd have done so but looking at what you have written, I'd assume the issue could turn into a long winded one so I'd expect a professional to charge for providing help. I'd also imagine 'Please...

    Thinking Of Moving From Linnworks To Channel Advisor .NET has been hell for us

    Have you had a look at Volo (formerly eSellerPro)? It's not cheap but it's good. I used it for about four years (until last year) and it's very robust. The Customer Service element has improved dramatically. We used to put £1.5m a year through it, saved us thousands of pounds.

    how can i offer layaway?

    Yep. You can do a 'Buy Back' where you don't charge interest but you charge a fee for the option to buy the item back before anybody else at a set price within a set timeframe. We never charged for Layaways, it was always a good way to make a high priced sale and help the customer manage their...

    how can i offer layaway?

    No I don't I'm afraid but it was pretty simple. From Column 1 it sent something like: Customer Name Custome Address Customer Telephone Number Item Bought Total Price of Item Deposit Paid + Date and then it would have columns for each payment that they made along with the date.

    how can i offer layaway?

    I used to have a few shops that did this. Handled layaway a manual;y using a form they'd sign when they put a deposit down, then an Excel spreadsheet. Used to have upwards of £5k per store using this system and it worked fine.

    Retail finance - Offering Customers Finance

    There is no easy way of doing it Tom. We looked into doing this and it's very complicated. You need a Consumer Credit Licence first, then a finance provider etc. We actually used Pay4Later as the size of our business was suitable but scrapped it in the end due to how long it was going to set up.

    limited company ebay

    As far as I'm aware you CAN transfer a eBay account if it's owned by the company, and you buy that company. If you have bought the company you simply take control of the ID.

    Next day delivery

    Interlink/DPD are the market leaders by far in terms of Customer Service (to your customer). Tracking is excellent, 1 hour delivery slots etc. They won't be the cheapest, but they will be the best. Depends on what your priorities are.
