Setting up a business in Australia…? Do you need to be making breaking even / generating a profit?

Posted: 09 Feb 2011 01:19 PM PST

Hi there

I hope someone can help.

I would like to set up an online company which would be based out in Australia for the Australian market. As this is online I could set up the website in the UK and start to make this work here, before moving.

Does anyone know the criteria for what the company needs to be earning in revenue / profit before you are able to immigrate and get the correct visa? and what the time frame would be?

Hope you can help

Thanks!

How to Market a Franchise. Serious answers only from experienced business people.?

Posted: 09 Feb 2011 11:21 AM PST

A couple years ago, I completed the development of a green janitorial franchise. This was a process that took 5 years, the registration of my service mark, the use of copywriters and marketing people as well as many other things. I spent over ,000 attending two busines and franchise shows to promote the franchise, but came up with no sales. The first show was, of course, my first and I was inexperienced. The second show was just a dud with way too low attendance. Marketing online will cost over 00 a month and a small add in a national magazine runs around 00 now.

This is a great venture as I was offered million for the whole package at the first show, but refused as I know it is worth much more.

The problem and the question is how do I market this franchise without spending an arm and a leg? Getting it to this point has taken everything I had.

So you can direct me more specifically in how to market this, take a look at my site http://envirocleanonline.com

I have been looking for the best ways to promote my online business.
I would really like to know.

Wedding / Engagement – Keepsake, Journal, Scrapbook?

Posted: 09 Feb 2011 07:20 AM PST

I am engaged and I am looking for a way to record this special time in my life. I am looking for more of a journal than a guidebook (no suggestions needed here). I live in a small town and not able to go to a book store to make a choice. And, the selection online is overwhelming!
In short, I am looking for a keepsake that I can write what I am doing day to day, a spot to place business cards, a calendar, and something where I can add pages. I know – typical bride – wants it all!

Finishing my degree — which major?

Posted: 09 Feb 2011 07:20 AM PST

In 1994, I left college, but was still allowed to go through graduation ceremonies, some hours short of completion. Now that I see it, I have basically 30 hours or a full year of undergrad left. I really wrangled my way into the line for grad. Naturally I never got a diploma for my empty folder. But, my whole family thought I had graduated.

I have worked as a freelance writer, holding myself out as having a degree in English. I got 2 books published 4 and 8 years ago, I have published articles, blogs and business and grant proposals. I have done mission trips and ministry work with my writing, and am up for a major journalism fellowship (I did not pretend to have a degree on that application). Lately, I have felt very guilty about pretending to have a degree when I don’t.

Due to serious illness in our family, the construction and publishing markets (my husband’s and my work) and a variety of other factors I’m not going to detail here, our family is on welfare right now. As a bit of background, I have not been offered a full time job in five years in spite of my best efforts. I get part time jobs easily and freelance writing jobs easily — they just don’t pay enough for us to pay our bills. My husband (who remodels houses but doesn’t charge near enough to support us) and I have to cooperate with the job placement plan in order to keep getting welfare. It’s not that the few hundred dollars is such a big deal, but under the program, and since I don’t have outstanding student loans, I can go back to school and finish my degree with distance learning through a university about 40 miles from here. I can take online classes or some classes at a center in my town. It will actually take about 2 years because I have to earn 45 hours at this new school to graduate from it. This program offers adult learners courses at the upper undergrad levels and counts whatever coursework you’ve done to meet the core education requirements. You have to have completed 60 hours to get in and I’ve completed 98.

Here are possible majors available to me:

1. English. Pro: it was already my major and I have a lot of work done in it. Con: I don’t see how it will get me farther than I am now. I’m already a published author and journalist and not making enough money at it. I can already get hired for writing jobs based on my talent — not to brag, it’s just a fact.

2. Psychology — Pro: I like people and helping others. Con: I have absolutely no hours in psychology right now and would have to start with Psych 101. Like all of these, I have the educational core done, but would have to take a bunch of psych and other social science courses.

3. Business administration. I do have nonprofit experience but my lack of degree has kept me from ever getting a job with it. I have no interest in business courses, I’m bad at math, possibly too chaotic for accounting, but I would make more money I think.

4. Teaching certification — I would go for secondary English. Pro: very easy for me to finish up and possibly steady work that I’d enjoy. Con: Our local school district cut a bunch of teachers this year and I don’t want to uproot the kids. I quit the teaching unit when I was at uni before because I didn’t think I would be the best teacher.

5. organizational management — like bus admin but less accounting and other drudgery. Might help me grow my writing business or get a job with a cool organization.

What’s your advice? Hope it wasn’t too long. I tried to break it up into a lot of paragraphs. Thanks.
