Help!!! Lost my job and now Trying not to break the law.
hello b.p well heres the deal ive been learning and reading on here for 2 years slowly but surely becoming one of those that just read and never do anything to chase the dream! I loved the idea of flipping and wholesaling. after 2 leads i got hunting from craigslist turned out to be tirekickers i gave up and fell off.
Well fast forward 1.5 years to 2 weeks ago. i had a big Pre CES show SAMSUNG meeting with my district manager. Turns out right after CES im getting laid off and taking a 3 month severance pay or becoming a part time employee until they can relocate me.... yea im not ok with neither. Just lost benefits and 50k a year. Sure i was depressed for 2 days but then i realized something i spent the last 2 years learning how to make money doing something i seriously like and i never want to go back to a day job again. Plus why make 50k in a year when its possible to make 50k in a good month!!! I instantly snapped and bought a 700lead mailing list (not much but a start) and posted multiple c.l ads. Now the lines have been blowing up and ive had multiple leads now! still no deal but im getting closer and closer and getting a lot better on the phone!!!
I feel as though im applying everything i learned and waiting 2 years of educating myself through all of you was well worth the wait before jumping in.
NOW PLEASE HELP ME NOT BREAK THE LAW.
How do i represent myself?
Ive read about llc and all that however i know as an wholeseller especially new i dont really have much to protect and this isnt much of a neccessity for me.
But my concern is, is it ILLEGAL to give my self a company name for putting on business card purposes , flyers, yellowletters , bandit signs etc.
Also when i send emails this name will be used on my gmail address as well.
This became a concern for me because one of my strong leads and probably the closest thing i had to a deal yet asked me, "what is your business name and are you guys located in the las vegas area?". So i told him the name i have for my biz and its also the name for my gmail. i plan on putting on cards and such as well.
My concern is if he looks up the name their is no llc or corp for that name. So by using a name and representing myself with that name am i breaking the law? When it comes to contract agreements i will not be putting business name but my personal information.
Again if i am breaking the law please stop me and correct me before the law does!
Other then this issue i think im so far so good on my mission to completing my first deal.
Hope the best for me and all of you in 2017!!
