Dawn asked:


I have taken some business courses but I don’t really know where to go to get the merchandise, the type of business I wanted to start was a business selling digital cameras and equipment. Would I just have to contact the manufacture directly? Can anyone help me and give me suggestion on starting a retail business? Thank you .

I have a home based craft business and I will be selling through my website and at craft fairs. I need to know if there is a general small business licence that covers internet sales or if a local city licence covers it. Thanks!

Jack asked:


I’m thinking about turning my online selling into a business, and I’m trying to get a feel for the tax-related pros and cons of making it official.

Here are 2 questions:
(1) I understand that I can write off business expenses on my tax returns. That includes computer equipment, trips overseas to purchase merchandise, etc. But I’ve never itemized my tax return before. Would I get more money back if I start a business, and then itemize my deductions rather than just taking the default deduction like I always do?

(2) If I make my online selling into an official business, will I have to pay extra business-related taxes?
