Small Time Operator: How to Start Your Own Business, Keep Your Books, Pay Your Taxes, and Stay Out of Trouble

In clear, easy-to-understand language, the author covers: Getting permits and licenses How to finance a business Creating and using a business plan Choosing and protecting a business name Deciding whether to incorporate Establishing a complete bookkeeping system Hiring employees Federal, state, and local taxes Buying a business or franchise Dealing with—and avoiding—the IRS Doing business on the Internet Handling insurance, contracts, pricing, trademarks, and patents In this new edition, the book will feature a section on surviving the Global Information Grid or GIG economy. The on-demand economy, also known as the sharing economy or the gig economy, is a new and greatly expanding business model that is basically nothing more than a mobile app that connects people who need some type of service—a ride, a delivery, a plumber, a house cleaner—with individuals who provide that service. There are hundreds of thousands of newly self-employed individuals. Uber alone claims that they have 160,000 workers just in California. The great majority of these on demand workers have zero experience or knowledge about self-employment. This book will give on-demand workers everything they need to know about being self-employed.
