Payroll:

• IRS issues can drag down your company faster than even a bad manager.  To ensure you (or your bookkeeper) don't mess up and get in hot water, I recommend using a payroll company, I've known a few that do an accurate, trustworthy job at a decent price. My current favorite is Brian Gasbarro of PayrightPayroll.com in Acton, MA, and find that they provide great custmer servcie at a good value.

Business Networking International (BNI 495 Referral Network):

• I am a member of this networking group and I want to continue to grow the B2B sphere that already contains some good trusted professionals.

To get a quick website like this with editor, blog, email, etc..:

• Go to 1&1.  It is inexpensive and incredibly easy.

Internet Fax

• Today it makes no sense using a traditional fax machine.  Now when people send you a fax, you can get it as an attachement (PDF) to an email.  Go to Packetel for the inexpensive internet fax.
