The Notorious B.S.G. Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 I just had a sorta-inspiration: Signals Hair, Nails & More Permanent Waves Grand Designs Or Just a Bit Off The Top ___________________ "Signals" I like because it's sort of vague, but evocative. Then again you could just call it "Curl Up and Dye Salon". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolinda Bonz Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 Congratulations, AGP!!! That is vereh kewl. You are going to do sooo well. There are tons of people who will loan you money, but tie up any loose ends before you embark on this journey. Ahem *whispers* "There are ten community property states, including California, Arizona, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. In community property states, this is the property that is considered separate, i.e. belonging to only one spouse. This usually includes anything owned prior to marriage, inheritances, and anything a spouse earned after the date of separation. Educational loans can also count as "separate" debts, owned by only one spouse." Oregon is Common Law....sayin? DO NOT open a "partnership" , that goes for anyone, ever. I recommend LLC (limited liability corporation.) Also, incurring debt is better than selling stock for a venture this size. Draw up a Business Plan to identify opening costs, define your marketing strategy and project cash flow for at least the first 5 years. Sounds daunting, I know, but just start typing up your ideas as they come...you can organize them later. PM me if you have questions. I did a feasibility study in school about opening my own business. The research calls that I made resulted in a flood of positive feedback that lasted for months. Jeez, all I really wanted was a grade. I think it was the Chamber of Commerce that sent the most info. Good luck, Girl BTW - Signals would be an awesome name. Good idea, BSG!!!

Alsgalpal Posted January 14, 2005 Author Share Posted January 14, 2005 Well folks, the shop got rented out, but I still want to strike out on my own, and lease a station. I think it would make so much more sense. I only get a quarter of what I do as far as money goes. So, I think I can't really go wrong for starting on my own. So, thats the bad news, and I am not really disappointed, if it was meant to be, it would happen. Now, for my good news!!!!! On Monday, I arrive at Pearson Int'l Airport in Toronto!!!!!! Tuesday, I get to meet my sweet best friend Barney, and I will be with my other best friend, Not Barn!!! I hope we get some kewl piccys to post!
