Does anyone know of a program that you can put on a computer with a modem that will turn it in to a call queuing server where we can use it at our small business? Something where, if several customers call in at once, it will put them in a queue where it will tell them "Your call will be answered in X minutes"? You know, they have them for call centers all the time. I was looking online and it seems like there’s a lot of expensive "services" out there, but I’m wondering if anyone knows of an inexpensive way to do-it-yourself?

I need a software that allows me to schedule patients for different therapists, and send reminders, etc. I am not quite sure what other features I would like, but am only a small business. I have a few hundred patients max, and do not want to get some ridiculously priced software for multiple facilities, etc. I do home health Occupational Therapy.

I have a small business and travel frequently between Thailand, Laos, Cambodiam Vietnam, Singapore and China. I currently have at least 7 sim cards and have to change on touch-down in each country. My business card ha multiple numbers listed, but clients never know which to call. I cannot access sms messages sent to me until I arive back in that country. Are there any phones that allow multiple sim cards? Is there a skype-like service allowing local numbers in each country like skype-in?

I am running a small business from home, and me and my wife are splitting up can i use my tax id number and business name to turn on my utilities in my business name at my new apt and if so what are the limits.ie like electric, telephone, water.cable.

My husband and I run a small business where we have 10 employees in the office. Recently, one of my employees asked if they could have our internet ID code so they could listen to the radio using our wifi via his phone. I said no b/c the company who does our IT for us said that if many people are using the internet radio at the same time it will slow our system. So, this is when I found out that basically all 10 of them listen to internet radio via our companies wifi every day. I was surprised b/c our system is never slow, but I told them that we were thinking of making it company policy to ban internet radio b/c of the slowness it brings to our internet and risk of viruses. Every time my IT company comes out to fix yet another broken computer or whatever, they tell me all kinds of helpful tips about computers and internet. They said we are protected by firewalls and virus protection software, but they said viruses can come from anywhere and the virus one of my employees got this week on his computer, they said came from google. They tell me of all the latest viruses out there to be aware of, they tell all the helpful things I need to get from them to make our system very safe. It is frustrating b/c my employees make fun of how secure our systems are, they say "why does it need to be like fort knox, we’re just a landscaping company?" but they are not the owner of the business so they do not understand. I am just so worried that a virus will come and wipe out our whole system and years of work will be gone in one second. so now i am very couscous, and i tell them not to go on any websites, even though they complain that many of the websites are blocked by the firewall software. They say they have never experienced our system to be slow but I told them that our IT company gave us this information and I don’t know how to get them to understand that going on the internet radio will make it slow. I mean, I depend on our IT company to tell me everything about computers since I just got a computer in my home for the first time last year, besides that, all my experience with computers has been from work. If they say I need it, then I get it. Have any suggestions? They do not realize the seriousness (wow this really stresses me out!)

My partner and I just started a small business selling customized t-shirts, sweats, etc. to sports clubs. Neither of us have an accounting or business background. Any suggestions for very basic, simple and user friendly software to use to keep our books?

I’ve started a business a little over a year ago and it has been getting bigger and busier. Which software should I buy that is great for a small business?

-Thanks

I would like to start a small business in the near future and was wondering what would be a cost effective accounting software package to purchase without spending too much money up front ?

I recently started my first small business. I’m a couple of months away from soliciting business. My business strategy currently emphasizes professional approach to counter lack of experience and capital (for advertising, grand retail/office space, etc…). I already incorporated the company partly for this reason. I won’t be hiring employees, retailing directly nor do I expect to make a profit for at least a year. When should I join the BBB?

I have a small business that needs some advertising. Would I get in trouble if I posted a flyer on some telephone poles?
I live in Corpus Christi, TX

I need to setup a domain name for my new small business. Time is important because telephone books go to print in a few months.

Can I host my domain at AT&T Yahoo?
How much storage can I obtain?
How do I pick and register a domain name?

Or do you have another web host provider you could recommend?
