How did you get started with your own business, how do you organize it?
I've been into IM now since January 2009 and things are going well. I focused on Affiliate marketing and creating WSO's.
Ten days ago I started to offer my services to small businesses by responding ads that were posted on craigslist searching for somebody to do the SEO for their sites. On Monday I had my first meeting and they hired me . So far so good.
Problem is that I was doing everything on my own form home before approaching offline companies. Creating simple landing pages, article marketing, creating reports and so forth. No big deal, could handle that stuff from home. When I had the meeting they asked me if I want to work for them as a contractor and I realized that I have to make some changes and move on to the next level if I want to offer my services to companies. (in terms of officially creating my own small business)
For now we arranged that I work for them as an 'employee' so to speak till I have my business up and running. They want me to work for them as a contractor so that I can take care of my taxes and so forth.
Anyways here is the thing, I know how to do SEO and all that good stuff but I don't know how to create or organize a small business.
My question is, do you guys have some books, courses or websites that you can recommend me? If I have learned anything in the last 9 month, then it's that I gotta read the right books and follow people who already walked the walk.
I don't want to do a lot of beginner's mistakes along the way if I can avoid them by listening to the right people.
So if you have been in the same position and you had a great book, course or site that really helped you, please let me know. I'm asking that here because there might be a couple of particular things that I should keep in mind being an Internet marketer !?
Any advise would be greatly appreciated, hope you can point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
