    I have a firm that does my website, but I do a lot of basic back end things so I can give them the jobs I don't understand well enough to do. I like them and they're affordable, but they're slow.

    Thanks for the feedback. I'll have to look into load times to see if we can cut it down. The app is for people to be able to capture their heartbeat (or kid's, mom's, pet's, etc) with their phone....

    What to prioritize - Small business building

    I have a small e commerce business. We just finished our first year. It's just my husband and myself. We also own another small brick and mortar business. Maybe it has just been the craziness of the...
  5. Check to see if you have an SBDC (small business...

    Fair enough. Is it reasonable to ask approximately how much I should expect to spend on a consultant to assist with that, or does that also depend too much on each individual business?

    I do...

    As a small business that started out with a tiny advertising budget, I would recommend starting with Facebook. They're by far cheaper than Google ad words, so it allows for some trial and error. See...

    Thanks for the feedback. It will be one site with a different price for members with logins. Inventory will be low, but customization for each product high. I got a quote of about $3000 today. How...

    I definitely don't want to cheap out. I'm just trying to figure out what to expect. I'll get a couple quotes as well, but wanted to get some feedback here too.

    Thanks for the feedback. They are a small company, but what reviews they do have are positive. However, like I said, they have never done a mailing that was this specific and time sensitive before...
  12. Thanks. We did have a business plan and our...

    The rule of the thumb is 3 years for a business to be self sustaining and profitable so typically one needs financing available for the initial years. By the sound of it (pun intended) you are on the...

    Billing Issue

    This is the first time I have had a billing issue with another business. A printing company approached us a while ago to do targeting mailers. We are a 3D ultrasound business, and we provide services...
  14. We have flirted with this idea. We have some...

    Makes perfect sense. The point is that you can do it, so if you wanted to do business with people who aren't in your local market and could send their vitals in, you could. You say there's no medical...

    I see a mod had to approve my response to Harold asking about our product. I wonder if it picked up some of my text and read it as spam? I'm not sure since I'm new to this forum, but hopefully my...

    I have to ask this because I'm a web guy...Is this done with an audio recording, or some kind of digital read out? Do I have to be there, or can I send you a copy of my ultrasound?
    Do you see what...

    I really am not looking for anyone to tell me what to expect. I know no one here can do that. I just don't have a lot of close friends or family that have started a business on their own, so...

    What kind of business? We do elective 3D/4D ultrasounds and gender reveals and we offer custom heartbeat jewlery (we can record anyone's heartbeat and have it made into a piece of jewelry).

    Hi. I'm new here. My husband and I started a business a year ago, and I'm having a hard time gauging where we should be. For the past several months we've basically been breaking even, with a little...
