ASSURE YOUR FINANCIAL SECURITY & HOME-BASED BUSINESS SUCCESS BY TAKING THE NECESSARY TIME TO START OUT ON THE RIGHT FOOT.
You're being "blasted" by so-called promises of phenomenal overnight riches, ease of operation &, in particular, "just sign on the dotted line, give us your money and your mailbox will be filled with checks in a couple of hours"; "we've reserved this spot for you if you act now", "you have XXXX thousands signed up in your downline but you must act now". P U L L E E Z E!! Let's get real.
FIRST DECISION ... DO YOU WANT A JOB OR DO YOU WANT A CAREER? Just one look at that precious family & examining your lifestyle dreams will answer that. "Oh, I can't give up the security of a steady pay check". No, and you're not going to, (at least not right now). What you are going to do is roll up your sleeves, give up a lot of so-called "free" time, & decide to spend every available evening & weekend minute building that new business. "But, look at what I'll be giving up?" WHAT?? Are you looking at the local or national economic reports? Even in a so-called favorable business climate, we are facing slowdowns, economic ups & downs, stagnant wages, corporate downsizing, workforce reductions, and forced retirements. As recently as a decade ago, companies would attempt "stretching out" severance payments or reclassifying to "consulting" status. TODAY, the cry of "restructuring" is heard everywhere while the corporate whispers announce, "we want to get this person packaged up and out of here". A well known economist recently stated that the dirty little secret of our economic downturn is that severance payments for supervisors are now calculated using days-per-year instead of weeks. Middle management is still set at 1 week per year. Then too, a lot of newer companies lack severance cash. The averages are 3 weeks for non-exempt; 5 weeks for middle management; 11 weeks for senior executives and 13 weeks for corporate officers. THIS IS CALLED JOB SECURITY?

THE QUESTION OF YOUR BUSINESS LICENSE
In planning your business, licensing of Internet businesses entail numerous areas of consideration not to be overlooked. For one thing, brick-&-mortar businesses are usually structured as sole proprietors, partners or corporations with owners, except corporations, being held personally liable for company debts, judgments, product liability, etc. Internet operational businesses cover various areas of product, national & overseas marketing regulations, terrifs & taxation/rates; additionally, the fundamental concepts of jurisdiction change rapidly online. It must be determined where the web site will be operational from to transact business and where the liability for breach of contract, fraud or taxation might arise. I strongly recommend that your new onlne business be organized and licensed as a LCC (limited liability corporation) which permits different classes of ownership, various areas of investor financing, stock transactions, as well as more flexibility in the allocation of profits. It is somewhat more costly and complicated than a single proprietorship but it is critically imperative for an Internet Entrepreneur; any experienced accountant or attorney conduct LCC licensing preparations regularly so costs are minimal. In this way, the owner does not face personal liability for business debts, court judgments, etc. Owners also enjoy fringe benefits including deducting business expenses from taxation and does not require meetings or corporate record keeping. Well worth the little bit of extra time required.
