Greetings,
it would be interesting to learn about your experiences.
Here in Ireland it is extremly costly, and ridiculously undersupported to setup a professional business. Internet Infrastructure is amongst the worst in Europe, and the costs of business has driven many companies to east european or asian countries already.
Even for a startup like me, I feel the pinch, just to give you an idea, and I would be really interested to hear about your cost situation on those 2 eaxmples as well.
INSURANCE:
The yearly business Insurance I was quoted today, and this assumes already a mandantory membership in a organisation of professional photographers, you wont get that insurance otherwise, hence is supposed to be discounted already, came to round about 1.600 Euro per year for the following package:
Equipment: Insured to a maximum of 30K
Public Liability: 6.5 Million max
Gross profit Loss: 635.000 max
Employees are insured as well
VISA - INTERNET:
This does not even cover the cost of hosting and website, it is only the cost for to have a VISA enabled/secured shopping cart:
1600 Euro per annum plus 400 setup fee, plus 2.2% of each transaction
Hefty or what do you think?
