Business Information and Help

detailjay asked:


I own a small business and I keep getting relocated within the U.S. Because of this I have to change my business phone number and I am sure I am losing sales not to mention ticking off my current clients with an ever changing phone number. Can someone give me some advice as to how I should set up my business number so I don’t have to change it all the time preferably without an 800 number? Thank you for your time in advance!

I am starting a small business and want to know what steps I need to do to ship to international destinations like Japan, Korea, or Mexico. My product is simple, similar to business cards, but I am trying to learn what steps I need to take to legally offer my goods in those countries. Do I simply fill out a customs form at the Post Office and I’m all set? Or are there “export agreements” or more complicated decisions I have to make? Legally, if I send my product to a client in Japan, for example, am I subject then to Japanese laws and possibly liable _in_ Japan for breaches of some license that I may be totally unaware of? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Again, this is not a product like tobacco or alcohol, but simple pre-printed cards (very similar to business cards) that have a clients’ info on them. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
