In this type of situation, what portion of the company is given to the investor?

In a TYPICAL venture deal (yours is not, of course, since it’s so small), it would be pretty common to give seed round investors 20-30% of the equity. Another way to look at it is that private equity investors expect to get 15x-20x their investment if the company is very successful. If your company (assuming success) might have a market cap of $1MM, then 20x on a $5M investment would only be 10%. It’s usually a negotiating process in any case.

There are numerous translators who set up shop as self- employed full fledged freelancers but few who have the guts to turn their business to an all round translation agency. This should not be surprising because establishing a full- scale agency is taking a giant step compared to launching a profitable freelance practice. Nevertheless the intellectual and financial rewards in starting one can be quite solid. Before starting your own professional and an all-round translation business, there are some factors you should take into account. These are:

ü Internal organization of your agency

If your dream is to establish a language translation agency, then it would be advisable to find yourself a competent partner. This is unless you are prepared to start hiring staff right away. This in most cases is not a recommendable procedure. The partner you are looking for should be an individual whose qualities should be ideally similar to yours. Separation of tasks should be laid down to remove any potential conflict of interest.

ü All –round Translation business

When we talk about an all round translation business we basically means the scope of your product which is language translation. As a single freelancer, the output will be confined to one language which you are competent in but as an agency you will be required to offer your customers with a whole range of different languages and discipline. These disciplines includes commercial, technical, medical and legal documentations. This means your range of products will only be limited by the available staff.

ü You should have by your sides a good Business Plan

The first step you take is to gather as much information as you can concerning all aspects of translation business. Afterwards, come up with a good business plan. You can find good business samples at your local branch Chambers of Commerce or download them over the internet. Structure your plan as you find on the samples. The main advantage of having a viable Business plan is that it will aid you to come up with real estimates of the capital needed to start up your agency. If you find your estimate exceed your private available fund you will be able to go to the bank and present your plan for further funding.

ü Another area of consideration is marketing

Yes your agency may have come off the ground, but where do you get your clients? Your first priority should be systematically recruiting your clients. One very helpful tool in achieving this, is through direct marketing. There are two direct marketing strategies available. They are;

i. Internet direct marketing

This is normally through such cheap and reliable methods such as search engine optimization or what is generally known as SEO. This is a term used to refer to various techniques through which your presence over the net is felt in order for your prospective clients to find you and your agency.

ii. Database direct marketing

This is a more expensive method of client’s acquisition. You are supposed to create a database for all prospective clients in different governmental and private organizations or companies. An effective database should contain at least a 1,000 companies you can source clients from and should contain details of the person to contact. Your database should be kept up-to-date for it to be effective.

ü You should have a reliable network of suppliers

Suppliers to your agencies are normally your freelance translators. Others includes the bank, the accountant, the printer and the graphic designer to name but a few.

ü High quality team of translators

Translators are obvious the most important asset in an translation agency. Freelancers will usually present themselves to assist in your agency as soon as they get to know you have a translation agency .One can also recruit them though the normal recruitment channels. Some of the best places to recruit your translators is the internet. Another important source is through your own network of buddies and colleagues as mostly, they are highly educated speakers of the native languages

Of course you have to pay taxes! And what gives you the idea that the IRS won’t know about it? Eventually you’ll have a Business customer who will hand you a Form W-9 and ask for your taxpayer ID number before they pay you. Assuming that they pay you more than $600 (and possibly if it’s less) the IRS will be notified of the payment.

Or someone will get audited and will have claimed an expense deduction for the money that they paid you. The IRS auditor will then gather the details about YOU and make a note to follow the money trail and see if YOU are paying YOUR share.

Either way, you’re BUSTED!

But let’s just say that you manage to fly under the radar for 40 years and get away with it. You retire and apply for Social Security. Guess what! You haven’t paid in a dime in those 40 years so you get goose egg! Nothing! Nada! Zip! Opte! De rien! Null! But hey, I hear that Alpo isn’t all THAT bad!

The issue of a business license is strictly a local one. Maybe you need one and maybe you don’t. But you better plan on keeping proper records and paying your taxes or life WILL become truly miserable for you. Sooner or later. (And sooner is better, since you’ll at least have a shot of paying up.)

Most people have always been afraid in taking the risks and starting out a business of their own. Their reason for this varies from an individual to an individual but mostly is the fear of having mo real job security. For the natural entrepreneurs security comes a s a part of the risk they always take. It comes from designing your life goals. In fact, one can create job security by putting forth the efforts to call their own shots and making key decisions which make sense in your business world.

A friend of mine started a house cleaning business over ten years ago and he has been going from strength to strength. The reason he started the business is because he wanted to call his own shots. According to him his first concern when he started the small family business was the job security but he gradually overcame this hurdle. The next problem was his level of cleaning business education. He did not have much of the needed basic cleaning skills at his belt but he pushed on and learned through mistakes.

He made the following discoveries about his new business venture;

ü Cleaning other peoples houses pays very well

ü The job is quite satisfying to the soul the reason being that leaving behind a thoroughly clean and neat house is quite in order.

ü Being your own boss is simply fantastic

He also found out that he had good research skills. This aided him to keep at par with other professional. Above all he learned that diligence and excellent service provided him with all the job security he needed. According to him cleaning houses is an great idea. Why?

I. Limitless income generating venture

As long as people live in houses cleaning up will always be needed. This being so, you can grow your business as much as you want to, the income generated by engaging in this business is also unlimited.

II. Start generating money within a short period of time

Once you start the business you will discover interested clients within a few days. By the end of the second week you will probably have more clients than you can service and within a months time your business will have grown too big to require addition staff.

III. The start-up capital should always be minimal.

With a $100 you can start your own cleaning business. All you will need is some good cleaning brooms and old rugs to start the gig. This is one business you can start with very little, in fact you don’t need a car or a vacuum cleaner for a start-up.

IV. You will love being your own boss

Nothing compares to the pride you will have when you know the buck always lies with you.

V. You work at your own hours.

When you are empowered with the knowledge that you can take charge of your own working schedule, you take more pride and interest on whatever work you are engaged in.

VI. Getting paid when you want.

Yes this is possible, in fact if you demand so you are paid on a daily bases. Now, what can surpass this?

VII. Cleaning houses is not emotionally or mentally tiring.

This is physical work and you only exhaust your body leaving your brains in tact for other mental duties.

VIII. You can choose who to work with or for.

IX. Work close to your home

There are plenty of cleaning jobs in the neighborhood, thus you don’t have to travel far in search of work.

X. Maximize your profits by starting other cleaning services.

Carpet cleaning, pet cleaning, house sitting steam cleaning, plant-scaping and others are all offshoots of starting a house cleaning business.

Whether you have strategic partnership or contractual partnership, you should be able to show revenue on your tax form as a sole proprietor. The taxes are very complicated, depending on which company you are operating in because I know someone who has a similar business model. There are accountants that specialize in this area and you can consult them.

The double whammy is that the recapture amount will also be subject to self-employment tax (approx 15%).
