LLC papers and More | Kickstarter Day #16

This is day 16 I did a bunch of random things today as you can see part of what I did today who was actually getting ready for the road trip starting tomorrow or doing the road trip another thing is I got a package of really excited about and open this up and I’m pretty sure I know what it is it is my LCC papers – LCC he probably a little later than I should I need a legal room I think they’re screwing your cookie box not bad at all at some other on works here I never opened up even with absolutist of course different use in different younger but this is a fun thing congratulations your limited liability company better nut butter LLC has been formed so there you go this is the kind of paperwork you get sign up for an LLC you guess intact construction stuff here membership certificate all kinds of fun thing it was only 200 bucks is pretty easy a lot of times people are worried you know how to form a company if they think about it too soon only reason I did an LLC if you can I’m going to be signing a food product other ones you probably can just do a DBA.

If you’re worried about people suing you go the LLC route which I’m a little bit worried you get to somebody continues it has a negative reaction there could be potentially issues but for instance effective e-commerce on a consulting company or if you know that doesn’t need to be an LLC much more likely be a DBA until you’re really big then there’s starts to be two tax benefits I got that I’ll open these letters later because they might notice being something too boring (more…)

Don’t Start an Online Store Until You See This!

 

I have seen so many who start an online store and make the same mistakes over and over again. In this video, I’ll be showing you how you can prevent the same mistakes and build a better online store.

 

  1. Niche Down More

Think of it this way, if you would sell it to one person, who that one seller be? Once you have carefully thought about that person, design your entire site and user experience around that person. On a bigger picture, if you would create a tribe, those who would love your product, think about who they would be.

 

  1. Create a Polarization

When you are creating a product, you want some people to love it, and some people to hate it.

 

  1. You Need To Be Unique

Think what makes your company so special. Why would someone want to buy from you? It actually could be something as simple as your personality.

 

   

  1. Don’t Cheap Out

It is very hard to create a business without any money, if you don’t have any money, go get a job and start savings. Don’t cheap out on this, I highly recommend going to Shopify when you’re starting an online store.
