all under 1 entity. Had a problem at start with government as they were to stupid to figure out my payments for gst and staff remitances. (was sending 3 checks in to match the total i owed. but they couldnt figure out what the other 2 checks were for as it didnt match the business name, even though i wrote on the checks the business number and what it was for. They called and said i need 3 business #'s. but i checked into it and u dont.

LOL, that's CRA! I'm an accountant for small corps and businesses and deal with gov't a lot, too bad I can't charge extra for that. I also have a small flooring business on the side.

should probably clarify. i run 3 sets of books for each business so i know exactly what each business's revenues and expenses are just in case i wish to sell one of them. but when i do stuff for the government or staff remitances i do everything as 1 entity.

security-close protection company. Just started it back in September during the film festival, and already have a solid contract with CBC. Once I get it off the ground and have time to promote and market the company and business, then maybe I can leave my full time gig and concentrate on the growth of the company.

I think what you are trying to do here will confilct against the owner of this site. He has a forum dedicated for that here. If I were in his shoes, it wouldn't be something I would allow. Nothing against you bro, but business is business.

Why only France, Belgium? Wouldn't your business website be in French then?

I know, it is weird. I have to re-do it in French. For some reason I have more success in French-speaking countries. I have some clients in the USA all the time, never any in Canada... I don't understand, but whatever...

Does anyone own or knows of someone who owns a business in mini-storage, or a deluxe car-wash? I found a sweet piece of property, priced reasonably in a great location for mini-storage units......I am just at beginning stages of research-so any help, or suggestions would be appreciated. I also wanted info. or thoughts on owning a Deluxe car-wash. Thanks :)

look at those lazer type car washes. the one in this city kicks ass. as u dont have to have anyone staff it. just put a machine there that they choose their option, insert credit card and all done. customer follows instruictions on the sign, and the machine does the rest. plus the place is open 24 hours.

if i could find some property here at the other end of town then this one, i would open one in a heart beat
