Updates On the Business Components

I have two technicians at the ready to work at a wage that allows the company to make it's profit and cover some expenses including the $300 annual fee for being registered as an LLC!!!!

Wow. The LLC better keep lawyers off my behind for 300 bucks a year. I need to earn 1500 to break even assuming no other expenses!

The web page (www.firststoptech.com) now has a store for merchandise.
I may link the rentals in there so people can pay for rentals by credit card. Credit cards are accepted thanks to a linked in PayPal account. The storefront is hosted by BluJay.com. It costs nothing. Google Shopping links to it, which is how I found it. BluJay gave some directiopns how to link PayPal in. Pretty easy, so don't be intimidated. If you can handle the LLC paperwork and taxes... linking Paypal in and setting up your sale items is a snap.

I have two rentals going now at $8.00 per month set up by my first tech. He's developing a working Linux model for the Pentium 3 PC's we offer. I'm using one now.

There are now five designs for business cards. I carry around three of them for different purposes.

This is a tiny business, but it IS a business. I have people working for me and making money for this outside THING that is First Stop Tech. It may pay me fees one day for accounting and administration. Not yet though. If I want money, I need to do some of the grunt work personally. Problem is, I want to give the grunt work to teh technicians who are eager to help.

I finally got around to postign because it's tax time.
I have a second post for that.
