Other than that you are in business. Obviously there is a bit more to it than that but essentially you would be open for business.
A bit more than that? Heavens above, if there was ever an understatement then that must be it

I'm sure setting up a business anywhere is pretty easy. Running that business to generate enough of a profit to provide a living wage is the hard bit!

With that in mind I'm guessing Fraser is asking for people who've done more than just register a company name!

For example I've had an LLC for several years that is currently nothing more than a shell company that is used to own some domain names and an email server - not quite sure if Fraser's going to be all that interested in it though!
