	Powered by Q. How do you start up a car sales business? i've visited a few car lots recently and it got me thinking as to how these car traders start up their businesses. i'm not talking about car dealerships, i'm looking to know about the small independent car sellers and how they got going. (this is a uk based question only as i don't live in the usa) thanks! "Speak to your local business link for free information on setting up your business..." Speak to your local Business Link for free information on setting up your business. They have information for specific industries as well as general stuff. One of your key things is location. Finding premises on a site where people can see what you have on offer as they drive past and where they have room to park to visit you are important. The other key thing, as with most businesses is marketing. How are you going to compete with everyone else who's doing this? Again, Business Link has good information on this. Good luck!

What would i need to start a "car part sales business" ? hello everyone i live in ontario canada and i wanted to get something started with my life and i was thinking about starting a business selling car parts. i was thinking about getting them from japan for a cheap price and selling them here for a low price, this is all completely new to me and i just got the idea from my father and was wondering if i would need to have existing contacts in japan or if u can gain them through the internet or from another source. another question would be about the financial aspect of this. i have bad credit right now and close to bankrupct so it would not be possible for me to get a bank loan, what other options do i have? also how much would i need aproximatly to start a new business like this one. not a huge shop just small enough to run something. if anyone can help me out with tips, info, web sites, or anything else would be greatly appreciated. thanks again here's a link to them on ebay business.

If i wanted to start a used car sales business what would i need to get started? often curious, but never really wanted to ask someone in the business. i guess/think that i'd get faulty info. "An accountant and lawyer would help in obtaining the proper licenses and business plan..." It depends on your state laws. You need an office and lot to display cars. An accountant and lawyer would help in obtaining the proper licenses and business plan. Sell quality used cars, start small and build your reputation, the you can expand. I am in Ontario where the laws are a bit strict, I am thinking of doing the same. This answer closely relates to: Start business cars sell Do all cop cars sell through auction?

	Powered by Q. How do you start your own car sales business? my husband is looking to start his own car sales business. he has experience in cars as well as some mechanical experience. it has been a long lasting dream of his to sell cars and he would love to start up his own business. my question is: what is the best way to get into this busniess? what will he need? would it be better to start of small, selling at home or to rent a unit to sell from? he wants to deal with cars between the price of £1000 and £5000 (selling price - not buying price). how much money do you think is required to start up? any guidance, advice or experience would be very much appreciated. thank you. "3- find a vacant lot on which you can sell used cars..." Its a long process to get it done on the proper way, but as you mentioned to sell cars from home? you can not do that. You cannot park and sell cars from your drive way. Your husband should do the following: 1- Register your business, acquire a business permit and complete all legal paperwork. Create a business plan and find funding and employees. 2- Apply for a wholesale or a vehicle dealer license, you will need a license before you can sell used cars. 3- Find a vacant lot on which you can sell used cars, you need to acquire a sufficient space and not your drive way. 4- Go to auction, also attend police auctions, since you are not allowed to test drive used cars from auction, make sure you and your mechanic thoroughly inspect it, your knowledge here will come handy. Maybe you can start with as little as two or three cars, but you shall need to have a sufficient amount of money to start with to cover the price for the vehicle and any work need to be done to make a profit.

	Powered by Q. Where can i find 100% free business start up grant? i have clients and i just need a building/lot and to officially start my car sales business. i also am in the real estate business. i need a 100% free grant. can anyone help? "Minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts..." It is hard to find grants to start a business. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for starting a for-profit business. One possible exception is for companies developing or exporting agricultural goods, including food and forest product. Another exception could be the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) or Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs http://www.sba.gov/aboutsba/sbaprograms/sbir/index.html , which fund the research and development of technological innovation that meets specific government needs. Your best bet actually will be from the states if they offer grant programs for women (or any other special interest groups -- minorities, women, disabled, veterans, etc). Or check with non profit organizations, particularly women organizations if they offer grants. Examples include Iowa Women's Foundation http://www.iawf.org/ New Mexico Women's Foundation http://www.nmwf.org/guidelines.html Even SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/mostrequesteditems/CON_FAQ2.html "The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments." Nonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture. Here is a listing of federal grants for small businesses. See if there is any available for individuals for starting a business -- THERE'S NONE. http://12.46.245.173/pls/portal30/CATALOG.BROWSE_BENEF_RPT.show Most of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program Grants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs This answer closely relates to: Starting used car business Can tell women has breast implants?

"It can be profitable and you could earn a pretty decent living...just make sure..." I'm sure it can be profitable and you could earn a pretty decent living...just make sure you know all of the laws for your state and county (yes counties have their own little sub-laws).
