Need advice on starting "side business".

Friend made my logo, Vista Print $7.99 fee to upload your own design. Free 250 cards from a promo.

vista print did my cards and brochures. qood quality, but they like to play games with the shipping costs

 

One tip I thought I would give is to buy items in larger sizes to save money. I started my summer detailing business to help pay for all the products I got just for my car. I bought ONR in 32 oz, and already bough another gallon because I know it's something I will be using for awhile, and has many uses. Although I also bought a gallon of their tire gel, and I'm not quite sure why I did that.

 

So I am having some trouble/dilemmas on what to do here. I currently have a free wix site and want to make business cards on vistaprint.com However, I cannot put Wix.com Freeworksdetailing created by Freefallin2000 based on Nu Classic Com on my business card for a couple reasons. The first of which is because I just changed my name to Pristine Detailing Works. I have been looking into a domain name and web site but the domain name through Godaddy.com is $11.99 per year and the site is $4.99 per month. I just don't know how beneficial this will be. I am new to the whole web site building deal so is there any other way around this whole domain/non free site thing? Like is there 1 site I can have my own domain i.e. www.pristinedetailingworks.com and only pay a yearly flat rate?

 

I use fatcow.com for all my hosting/domain services....I paid $44 for the entire year and that included unlimited hosting and free domain name. Check them out if you're looking to save some money. You're using the site just for basic information, so there really isn't a need to pay for more expensive services.

I'm also from AZ also and run a part-time detaling business. Everything these guys have said is true, especially about not buying so many products. My go to products are: ONR, SONAX Wheel Cleaner, P21S Autowash, Megs 105/205, Klasse AIO and Blackfire Wet Diamond.

Good luck!
