I am in process of opening my own business (with a partner).



I just recently filed the paperwork with the city and there are just a few more logistical things to figure out...





As far as the most frustrating part?



Definitely the parts when I know are there but don't understand in the slightest.

  • Taxes?

    • How do we figure out what to charge as far as tax to the client and to our own payroll and how do we report it to the city/IRS?????

  • Do we hire an accountant?

    • There are only two "workers" and they are the owners who aren't really on the payroll (us) so that throws a whole new ball into the game...






We finally figured out how to even register the business with the city which was a confusing mess within itself.



Not knowing what exactly you need to do, that's the most frustrating thing.





So, if you need a few tips for starting a business, then check out the business planner site from the Small Business Administration.



Your Small Business Adminsistrator can be a huge resource in ensuring that you know all of the steps involved in getting your business through it's painful start-up phase.
