If you are in the early stages of starting a small business, or if you have started up your business and realized you missed a few things – you have come to the right place.
Join former attorney Frank Farmer in a discussion of the ‘nuts and bolts” issues that should be considered when starting and operating a small business. Frank will discuss topics including the need and usefulness of developing a business plan; selecting a business organizational structure; fictitious name registration; licensing; hiring employees vs. independent contractors; obtaining tax identification numbers and other related topics.
