Self-Employment Advice
Can anyone advise me what I might need to know regarding setting up my own Joinery Business in South Australia. I have my own business here and dont currently have any employees. I have looked into public liability insurance, accountants, advertising etc. What else do I need to know? Also what should I be informed about should I also choose to employ trades, ie licensing etc.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Steve

Re: Self-Employment Advice
What sort of stuff do you need to know? You seem to have covered all the bases already?
You register a business name... http://www.fairtrading.nsw.gov.au/Bu...ess_names.html (NSW)
Apply for ABN... http://www.abr.gov.au/ABR_BC/
You get me to set a website up and design your stationery... and then you're good to go!!
As mines a home based business I'd expect you have a lot more to consider than I have... public liability being one of them which you're obviously already aware of.
Hopefully a tradie will come along and help you out too
