I have been surfing the net to find a good and affordable Business insurance which i can use..i came into Oneshopinsurance.com the cost was ok, but i want to know if there are any more out there who could give out something more affordable and can i depend my money on these?. thank you so much. Do you have any recommendations?? I appreciate any input! thanks in advance.
This is a webmaster forum, not really a physical business type forum, but my I suggest your friendly local insurance broker? alternatively most banks/ credit unions offer insurance services as well and should be able to sort something out...indeed I've never known a bank who didn't want my business (it's just after they get it they turn into complete you know whats ). Online look for an insurance matching service, no idea what country you're in so I'd be guessing on a site.
Sample business plan: http://www.bplans.com/spv/3142/index.cfm?affiliate=pas Id also suggest you contact your local SCORE office if you are in the US.
I can readily recommend http://www.startupnation.com They have a forum there designed for people like you wanting to start a BAM style business. Hope that helps cheers
Best wishes with your new endeavour. My most valuable advice would be for you to focus a large amount of your resources - money, time and people - on marketing. And sales. But marketing especially. It is the highest payoff activity if you know what you are doing. Best wishes
Be sure that you smart invest yuour money. Competition will clean floor with you if you don`t plan every segment of the business for next couple months and how you will react in the situation in which you can be theoreticly.
Just watch out for some adverts on tele? Or you can even search online for some great deals or use a compare site.
