Startup advise for online businesses
In the internet age, anyone can be an entrepreneur. All you need is a computer, an internet connection, and a great idea. However, while most people have the resources to start an online business, it takes more than just technology to make a venture viable.
If you’re serious about building a profitable online business, you need support from an online accountant who understands the digital space and what it takes to start a business. At Platinum Accounting & Taxation, we love working with startups. In fact, we’re a startup business ourselves.
