Business Form?  Sole-propreitor for now.  the other forms will not benefit you at, legally and will cost you more in filing fees etc than it is worth.  At some point, if you have employees, you can change to a LLC (limited liability company) with protects like a corporation but taxes like a partnership or sole-prop (if only you).\nAdvertising?  Word of mouth is good for starters.  One place to put fliers or small ads is at retirement communities.  These people are buying computers.  They did not grow up with these machines so don't even have the basics.  If you can, barter your services in exchange for ads.\nBe sure you obtain all the business licenses that your area requires.  Local governments can be more difficult than the feds to deal with.  \nGood luck

I am 16 and I have a small buisness doing what the first guy said. I have made tons of money just helping people do mundane things. Just reimage peoples computers, or hook up VPN, that sorta thing. Like he said, competeing w/ dell is going to be hard. But if you start to fix people computers, make sure you tell them that you are "starting out" because just in case something goes wrong, it will be all you fault, and the world is going to come crashing down. Drum up some customers, and you will have a small clientel. Take it from me, I have a samll amount of experiacne. Just don't take my customers...

consider all options. don't play safe\nsetting up a business is a huge responsibility\n\nTo look into\n\n1. Business plan\n2. Business marketing plan\n3. Financial plan / Start-up loan\n\nHave you checked to make sure your business name is available?; Have you registered your business?; Have you checked and registered your trademark?; Do you need a business licence?;Have you got insurance?;Do you have a business account?; Do you have an accountant?; Have you created a budget?; Can you get to the phone and electrical sockets easily?; Will your furniture fit in the space?; Do you have sufficient light and ventilation?; What is the temperature like in the office?; Do you have enough storage?; Have you all the equipment that you need?; Computers, telephone, fax machine, printer, scanner, etc...?\n\nWould you invest in all that or would you for an alternative like say, a virtual office?

There is nothing simple or easy about starting a home-based business.\n\nThere is nothing simple about doing business on the Internet.\n\nYour best chance for success is to make a list of all the skills you have - what you like to do, what you are good at doing and then match that with a perceived need.  \n\nIf there is an existing market for what you can do, it's much easier.  Otherwise you will be spending large amounts of time building up a clientele for your product or service.\n\nA good place to start is with SCORE - link below - for free business advice from retired executives.\n\nEven if you don't spend cash starting up - be prepared to invest lots of time - most of it without bringing in cash - to establish and build your business.  \n\nEven when you do get clients, expect to put in long hours - most successful businesses don't begin to see a profit for 3-5 years.

Software training (rep for a software company).  After they sell the product, you go out and train the clients on the systems.  You then get to travel and work with people.  Your existing computer background will help quite a bit since you can speak to people in both technical terms and layman's terms.  You could go to te job boards or to specific software company sites that you are interested in.  Just a thought.  Good luck!

If you know what business you want to start, try to determine if successful people in that business have schooling.  Try to talk to one of them, tell them you need a mentor.\n\nIf you want a business you can start right away, write me (jstmother) at yahoo.

Business starting is a question of having an idea of what you want to get and achieve.Ask yourself some questions like, what I can do with the 2 computers? what skills do I have that I can offer with the asserts I have? what services will I offer? Go through these questions and provide answers to yourself. You wil be at it. \nBy the way we do not need money to start business but the mind.
