Dave Gillen – Former FS Concierge replied to the topic Can I ditch PayPal and still get paid internationally ?. in the forum Selling online 2 years, 5 months ago
Hi Mathew, Welcome to the forums!
There are other payment processors you can use, like Stripe. I have used one called Payfunnels, which uses the Stripe processor but makes payments easy to set up and allows you do charge recurring fees etc.
Also try Googling what others use for your service type (consulting for example). They may have one that…[Read more]

Welcome aboard @vickiflocc! Great to have you here.
Sounds interesting. What do you think buyers or sellers are missing in the existing “business for sale” platforms that they will get of Flocc?Dave

Dave Gillen – Former FS Concierge replied to the topic What social media platforms perform best for your business? in the forum Marketing mastery 2 years, 5 months ago
That’s really interesting – 9/10 people would probably say your work is most suited to instagram. But on Insta you are competing with a lot of similar/visual stuff whereas on LI you may stand out 10x more.
Also there’s still very good organic reach on LI compared to IG (doing down).
Thanks for being here Happy Decay and dropping this hint for…[Read more]

Dave Gillen – Former FS Concierge replied to the topic Using Personal Training as a therapeutic tool in the forum Wellbeing & balance 2 years, 6 months ago
Welcome to the forums @mikeepod!
Sounds like a great idea. I’m sure there are a bunch of studies out there on the benefits of exercise for mental health/anxiety/depression, and a personal training service with a focus on those benefits could work.
Find out what those studies say about intensity/type of exercise, and you could build programs…[Read more]

Hi @tryingsolo (love the name),
A @mattdell has said, the business as a sellable entity might be worth less than you think. But rather than speculate, talk to a couple of brokers so you can have proof of it’s value (not just opinion).
Once you get this proof in place around the valuation (i.e. her expectations lowered), then I would suggest…[Read more]

Hi @sugar,
It sounds like Option c) would be the simplest (and most enjoyable) business to start.
In setting it up you will learn a bunch of things about payment processors, shipping, customer service, finding a niche for your art, marketing, and so on.Selling this kind of product can be competitive, so I would personally try to sell custom…[Read more]

Dave Gillen – Former FS Concierge replied to the topic Market Research Survey in the forum Marketing mastery 2 years, 8 months ago
Hi Jules,
A discount offer can be a good incentive, but you would need to be more specific about it.
For example, what is the discount offer (what for and how much), and which company are you from? In other words, an unspecified discount with an unspecified company is no incentive at all.Also try telling a bit of your story. Are you starting a…[Read more]

Welcome to the forums @ayansasmal,
It will definitely be worth spending a couple of hundred dollars to see an accountant to see which situation will favour you personally based on your industry/expenses/rate of pay etc.
A couple of answers.
You can work for multiple clients with ABN. You can work for multiple employers under PAYG also.
And you…[Read more] -
