Good luck with your new venture. In todays world just doing good work does not guarantee a succesful business. There is all the behind the scenes paperwork crap that needs to be attended to. Sending in collected taxes and necessary reports,social security and withholding taxes etc. Then there are a lot of expenses like property taxes or lease payments,insurances,utilities etc. etc. I've known some very talented people that went into business for themselves and went broke because they didn't take all of these things into consideration.I'm not trying to be discouraging,just realistic. And keep the accounts recievable to a minimum. Beware of the "buddies" that want deals. The saying is I have to make money off my friends because my enemies don't do business here. I ran my own sideline business for over 20 yrs out of my home shop. I worked 40 hr weeks at a shop in town and ran my shop evenings and weekends. Yes it was profitable but things have changed a lot now with all the regulations,required permits and paperwork. I finially got to the point that I wanted to work on my own stuff and have some time to enjoy life. Anyway,just some advice from a worn out old biker and hope things work out well for you.
