Zuto one has been pulled off so a nice 36 units for that 'quiet dead month' everyone warned us about. Best wishes to everyone, have a good night tonight and a great start to the new year.

this year a lot worse than the previous 2 customers more picky than ever depended on a loyal customer base but cant afford to do that in 2016 so need to reapraise where im going to go AT been a complete waste of time with ebay doing me more good but is hard work because of all the nutters who contact you expecting discounts unseen what one thing did i learn? to be harder than ive ever been hard before but to still be fair

Trade insurance is not £1000 a month, more like £300 I would say. Yes you do need to insure your stock, what if the place burns down? Rough monthly costs I'd say, for 120k worth of stock. Advertising anywhere from £500 to £3,000 depending the route you take Wages for staff £1200-£2000 again depending on quality of staff Valeting - guessing you will outsource this so £1k a month maybe? Insurance (road cover, stock, public liability, employers liability) £500 a month Rates £500 per month? Rent £1200 per month Utilities £200-£300 per month Wages for you £XXXX depends how much you want to earn Already at 8k, maybe £10k a month without any of the other costs that crop up such a vehicle prep, garage bills etc. then every 3 months the VAT man will knocking for circa £6-£8k?
