Want to get my business going again, where to start..?
So, getting back into game console repairs (which will also at some point turn into other board repairs, ie, on phones).
For a website, I know a guy in the US that is going to help me out, so he'd probably know a good answer to my next question but since it has been quite a few years since I had a website, I know that GoDaddy is pretty much hated all around so does anyone have any suggestions for a web host as well as one (or another business) to register a .ca and .come domain? I don't care if it's a Canadian company in the end or not but would prefer to support a Canadian business if I can (if they're good).
As for registering a business, no idea how but I'm sure I can figure all of that out on my own.
I could probably figure out all of it on my own but would just like some input on what you all think here.
Thanks for any help/advice.
Seems like there is high demand for repairs as I've done about 6 jobs so far in about 2 weeks, which paid for the soldering station and heat station so hopefully it keeps going and going.
Also, every once in awhile I see promotions for business banking, etc. I know nothing about business banking accounts and have no idea what the point is vs a regular set of accounts. Could anyone enlighten me on any of that?
Lastly (Sorry I know this is kind of all over the place). How does one accept credit cards like many online stores/sites offer? Obviously I can use paypal however I don't want anything to do with that company for good reasons (I got ripped off a very long time ago and they did nothing in any way to help me as a buyer (long story short, got ripped off for $1100, they said their buyer protection policy helped me by getting me $4 back from their account. And that was that... I got the money back via other methods but in the end you can easily see why I want nothing to do with them). Methods of payment I will accept are EMT, Bitcoin, and credit cards if possible as I will be selling products as well.
