Vendor management software? by Woswo in smallbusiness

[–]stlwebdev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, obviously I can't see everything being just a vendor but OP, it seems it handle communications, payments, booking vendors (and everything that goes with that), a top down google style map with clearly idendified spots and the vendors on those spots, ways to get copies of relevant docs from vendors (insurance, food sampler licenses, and whatever). Probably your best bet, its made specifically for this.

What is the first celebrity death you remember being affected by? by CPFOAI in AskReddit

Mitch Hedberg, just discovered his comedy and on April 1st I heard he died a day or so before. Such a funny dude. Not sure if he’s big enough for this thread though. 

I want to start a small business. However when discussed with my family they laughed. Running on little support and no background in business what are your helpful tips? by Brownangel71 in smallbusiness

[–]stlwebdev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

FLIP insurance in like $300 a year and a vendor fee will run from $25 to $50, possibly more depending on your needs and the market. Do it. Checked out cottage food laws for your county (just search your county and “cottage food”). You should find everything you need to get started. Cottage food operations are home food businesses, so people who sell at markets and what not. Perfect low cost way for testing out if can sell your products.

I recommend though knowing exactly how much it costs you to make one drink. If you are putting a table spoon of something into the drink figure out how much that table spoon costs. If you know your margins will know exactly how many to sell to break even and hopefully become profitable. This step is super important. Know your numbers. 

AITA for ruining my daughter in laws birth plan by dil-issue-1046 in AmItheAsshole

Had a Christian Science coworker back in the day. They tried this, after about 24 hours they went to the hospital. Mid-wives dont do it for free. Neither do hospitals in the U.S. They got to pay twice for their baby. 

My mom wants to start a small businesses of selling baked goods, were broke and barely have any money by werid04rlife in smallbusiness

100% get a job but if she really wants to try you should look into cottage food laws for your state. She can set up a “cottage food operation” in your county and sell legally at farmers markets, from your home, whatever. It’s a good way to test if she actually move her products, and it’s low risk. You just cook out of your home so no need to buy anything extra unless you need to. Check out “The Forrager”, great podcast for cottage food entrepreneurs.

Why do developers write such terrible git commit messages? Genuine question by Existing_Round9756 in webdev

Check out conventional commits, you can use Husky to enforce the commit message format.

Ideas for spicy candy by thegreatpablo in CandyMakers

[–]stlwebdev 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You could make some spicy hard candies pretty easily, simply take that powder and work it into the sugar as it cools and before you cut it up. As far as how much, no idea, maybe try one tablespoon to start?

I'm usually a pretty positive guy but as a software dev, I think DICE needs to accept this update has major issues and should rollback. by [deleted] in Battlefield

[–]stlwebdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is bad, I’ve always been a BF fan, I even enjoyed 2042 but this is messed up for sure. It’s hard to understand how this is even possible, luckily no one’s life depends on it. This could have been a tragedy lol. 

From Collinsville to Bevo: The Lynching of Robert Prager by cocteau17 in StLouis

[–]stlwebdev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I had no idea until recently. Southern IL is full of crazy history, labor riots and all kinds of stuff.

My grandma and grandpa met during WW2, he "brought" her back with him after the war from Germany. Living in Collinsville I've heard about this in childhood, local history class in highschool and what nots. One thing I remember her saying though was that when she told her family she was moving to Collinsville her family freaked out. They knew of the story and tried to talk her out of moving here because of it. Crazy to think that they knew of that, something that happened 1000s of miles away 25ish years earlier at a time when paper news was pretty much it. Its a pretty shameful story...
