QHello, I am an 18 year old business entrepreneur. I run a car and auto part business both of which I started. I already have made a great start and good money, but would be interested in hearing what others think of forms of advertising cars. I have owned over 45 cars already, but I have a jeep i am selling and have had it with little intrest from buyers. I use eBay and Craigslist, as well as local advertisement on my rear windshield and word of mouth. What would you reccomend, or what has worked for you in buying / selling a car?I also recently started selling parts (buying bulk lots or entire cars and selling individual parts on eBay) and to my surprise this makes alot more with much fater turnaround. All answers are greatly appreciated! =]

Q"I want to start an auto detailing business. I've picked out a cute name for my company, but have no business plan or knowledge of how to run a business and have no idea what to do. Will you do all the work for me and list here step by step what it takes to start up an auto-detailing business?"You people aren't going to make it. Go get a job. Entrepreneurs are go-getter creative type people who know how to make things happen. If you can't even do the easy fun parts of starting up a business like coming up with a detailed business plan, then you won't be able to handle all the work that goes into running a business. If you can't fix or recognize problems on your own, or don't know where to go to get the help or information you need, you will fail. Just being honest here, everyone wants to own a business nowadays but most aren't cut out for it.I run a consulting business and would be glad to help you start your business for a reasonable flat fee.

QHi I am a young entrepreneur who has been in business for a few years. For the first few years my business was showing a loss or break even in profit margin. This year has been a much better year for me and I am looking to purchase a truck for the business, but there is a problem. I am 24, I just moved out of my parents house, I have little credit history, and have not showed any income in the past few years. I have the money to buy the truck but I would like to get a loan for it to build up credit for future investments and purchases. What is the best way to approach my bank regarding this matter? The truck I am buying is at an incredible deal....it is being sold for less than half of the Kelly Blue Book value because the owner is in a tight financial spot. Should I look into a private loan, business loan or something else? I have thought that if all else fails I could ask the bank to give me a loan for %50 percent of the price and then use the truck as collateral. Please let me know if this is possible and point me in the right direction.
