Grow your business Exponentially

for only $2 a day!!

 Before we begin I want to give you a little checklist of the things you will need in order to complete this process. Most of it is pretty simple stuff you should already have. If not then you will need to.

 1.      An email (it can be whatever email you use for your business)

2.      A payment method for managing your accounts - credit card or at least an active prepaid credit card with VISA/MASTERCARD logo.

3.      A little bit of time to set everything up.

4.      An idea of the kind of business you want to start or an existing business

That’s it!

Anything else that is recommended throughout the guide that you may need on the way is not essential but may be convenient for you to have.

The first thing that any business needs to do, is be accessible to its customers at any time. Of course the easiest way to do that is for any business to have a website. Once you have that website you want to gain your customers and keep those customers continuously thinking of your business anytime your business can fulfill their needs. Here is a step by step setup on how to only setup your business to be successful in doing that, but also setup your business so that it is most cost effective for you.

First things first, as a business owner you want to make sure that anything you do will be profitable and allow you maximize your opportunity. So, I want to make sure that as an entrepreneur you are maximizing your ability to use this information to increase your business. To do that, you want to make sure that your business is setup to receive the best possible benefit from any expense put into your business. Even if it is $2 a day.  In order to do that you want to make sure your business is setup properly. If your business is already setup and established and this information is just going to help further along grow it the you ca go ahead and jump to the next section. However, if you are just starting out then you would want to follow this step by step.

Now keep in mind this is a brief overview so I wont be getting down to the nitty gritty of everything but enough so that it will set you up for major success or at least give you a good starting point.

Now for some of you who don’t yet have a business or may have already have a business you may want to do this first. Keep I mind as a disclaimer this is in no way shape or form any financial or legal advice and any and all content going forward does not hold the creator(s) of this content responsible for any outcome should you chose to go forward. This is for informational and educational purposes only. Now that that is out of the way…….

 Step Number 1: Legally Establish a business

By this we mean form a separate entity to do your business. Most entrepreneurs/business owners start out by doing things as a sole proprietor. Not that it is anything wrong with that, its just a lot of things that can go wrong with that for one reason or another. The reason why we state this no matter what industry you are in are for many but we’ll mention a few key reasons here now and show you the easiest way to have your business setup for you. If you already have a business entity setup, then you can go ahead and jump to step #2.

Now some of the main reasons you want to establish a real business are as follows

·         Protect yourself from being personally liable from lawsuits

·         Be able to extend your tax write off amounts

·         Appeal to your audience more and grow your business

With having a legal business entity established anything you do will keep you free and clear from someone making you personally responsible. Because if the business goes bankrupt that is fine just start another one. But if you get sued, well it maybe a little harder to come back from that. One of the best things about having the business is the financial benefit you get. Just about every expense you have pertaining to your business is tax deductible against the business income, even your $2 expense to grow your business. This means more money in your own pocket and less in uncle sam’s. Even the little things you may not even think of such as your cell phone bill, meals when you go out to eat, heck even this $2 a day marketing business plan is going to grow your business. Again speak with your accountant or financial professional about how that will apply to your business.

Another important thing, is that establishing business separate from yourself will look much more appealing to your audience as well as other potential businesses, or business clients. It gives your customers the sense of satisfaction that they are dealing with their preference of a company on whatever scale they prefer (big or small) and also allows other businesses to see that they are dealing with a likeminded organization. Win Freakin Win Baby!

All that is good to know but wait…. What if you don’t have the time or resources to learn how to go about doing all the legal paperwork to legally form a company? Good you shouldn’t be wasting your time to doing that anyway you are a business owner leave the paper work to the professionals. The best way to do that is to hire the professionals. Now what is the easiest way to go about this? Simple, You can spend your time going around town trying to find a local accountant or lawyer or just keep it simple and hire the pro’s at INCFILE. There are many other organizations that do this like legal zoom and even local professionals. However, through our testing, experience and surveys, we have found that INCFILE has been not only the easiest, hassle free way to do this, but also the most cost effective.

There are plenty of reasons why we are recommending them. Because for but mostly these:

Folks let me tell you for $49 and getting all of this you honestly couldn’t get a better deal! Had I known this when I first started doing my own businesses I would’ve saved my self so much more time and research. Take a look at the packages they offer and I’m sure they will try to upsell you (which is normal of any business) so make sure what you they offer you is essential but for the most part the $49 + state fee package is all that you need. There is no better place that will help you with How to start your business than going to INCFILE.

Once you get all your paper work back it may be a good time to open up a business bank account. This is fairly easy to do as well. Just take your paperwork into the bank of your choice and they’ll let you know what the requirements are to open a business account with them.

 Step #2 Setup your business

Time to get a domain for your business. The best place for this cost wise is definitely going to be google domains or namecheap.com for the best. Now if you already have a business website go ahead and skip on to step 3 because more than likely you’ll need to start there. $12 for a year isn’t bad to have your business website name. Pretty simple process just search for what you want your business website to be called, once you find it. Pay for it and voila! No tricks, no gimmicks just pay your $12 get your domain and move on. Now that you have your business website name setup now its time to get that website built. Step 3 will walk us through that crucial part.

 Step 3 Website Wonders

 So you have your website name now what? Now its time to make that website! Now for some of you you may already have a website and everything already constructed. Even better you just have the easier part of this step to do. Now for those of you who don’t. You can easily make your website  

Both places (google domain & namecheap) in fact, any place you go to buy your domain may also offer web design to create your site along with other things such as advertising your website as well. Although it sounds convenient it is not recommended for many reasons. Mainly, you dont want to have your website suppressed which is typical with domain hosting companies when using their advertising. You’ll want to have your website set up for peak optimization and be able to run smoothly for your clients at any and every moment. Trust me the last thing I hate is going to a company’s site and waiting for the page to load. Most consumers by then have already lost interest on continuing on to the site. This is major must for any of you running an e-commerce business. Well actually, any business who is dealing with many products or even just having high definition photos or even simple youtube videos on their site. If your site is barely loading or taking forever to operate or be found by the ones looking for you its simply a waste of space.

How do you make sure this isn’t you?

So first you want to make sure your website is using wordpress. Wordpress is used pretty much any and everyone on the internet who has a site for countless reasons. If you don’t know how to install wordpress on your website and are doing it yourself, there are plenty of youtube. videos on how to do so. Just type I (How to install wordpress for nanmecheap / googledomain) We wont go into those benefits right now because we’ll be here all day but just know you want to have wordpress.

Once it is installed, There are many wordpress tutorials you can find on how to design a website. But if you’re anything like me and don’t want to take the time to do and learn all that just have someone else do it. You can easily find somebody to design a website for you for cheap now and days. But of course you’ll more than likely get what you pay for but at the same time you may not need all the bells and whistles. So you can head over to fiverr and higher a developer for a couple of bucks. I’ve actually had a few on them design a couple of my sites for cheap and they did outstanding jobs. $7 got me some pretty good sites designed. From a basic website to a complex ecommerce site there are web designers of all types there. Of course you will need to provide them with the password and/or Cpanel access to your domain and website but you can change it afterwards.

 Here is where your Secret weapon comes in!!!

Once your site is up and the way you want it you now need to get it on over to Kinsta. Especially for you ecommerce stores using woo commerce, shopify, or any other online shopping setup, Kinsta is going to hands down be the best platform to support your site. With them you’ll be able to spend less time worrying about your website and more time growing your business. Whether you need to roll back your site or you’re hit with a sudden surge of traffic, Kinsta’s got you covered every step of the way. Also, Kinsta uses google cloud platform so you have which will allow your site to be secured and fast globally. This is probably the bulk of your expense being that it is going to cost a minimum of a $1 a day but trust me the support and service is definitely worth it.

If you don’t find yourself for some particular reason like using Kinsta you can also use SiteGround. And for $4 a month it is by far the best hosting site you could use. Many people still report seeing substainal change in not only their site but the traffic and sales too when switching over to either one of these hosting companies.

  Step 4: Stay in Touch
