The best form builder around...
In 2008, I ran into a problem creating a website with multiple forms, and found a free form service, Jotform. Although many competitors have entered the space since then, they were the first company I know of to offer a "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" form creator that allowed you to create an html form simply by clicking and dragging. Of course, Jotform still offers a free service (check out their pricing here) as well as several other features. They are still the best form builder I know of around. ...but don't use Jotform for payments. I do offer one caveat: They offer the ability to receive payments through Stripe, Paypal, and other services, but their bronze plan only offers 10 payment submissions per month. This is a ridiculously low amount of submissions for $15.80 a month, especially when all Jotform is doing is forwarding the customer to Paypal/Stripe/etc. to complete the transaction.

I'm ashamed to say I've been in the printing business for over 13 years, and just discovered Sinalite, a full-service trade printer based in Ontario, Canada.
Based on my experience with Sinalite, I can say without hesitation that print brokers and trade printers should make Sinalite a key vendor. Here's why:
Check out Sinalite! In my book How to Be a Print Broker, I briefly discuss the process of legally starting your own business. Part of the reason it's a brief discussion is that I don't want to offer legal advice (and can't), and the laws vary from state to state. But you don't have to go it alone.
The organization SCORE is a group of retired executives that mentor new business owners and entrepreneurs. In addition to offering personal (and free!) counseling, they offer a wide variety of free workshops, including many on starting a business. I also recommend that you check out this helpful resource on general and specific requirements for each state. Many states have a "one-stop-shop" that makes it easy to apply for a business name and sales tax license in the same place. |
