| Hobbyest to Business Partner
My Dad (Larry) & I have finally moved up from "hobbyist" to full & part-time rod builders. We have started Snake River Rods. We kind of have 2 locations. His shop/store front in Burley, Idaho is the main location and I work out of my home here in Sacramento, Ca.. Business licensing & tax numbers all handled.
Our new website is up & running bit still a work in progress. Take a gander! Snake River Rods - Home
Thanks!

You don't need any business luck Raymond your craftsmanship is speaking for itself.
The only luck you need is in not running into too many "wankers" wasting your time.
With the production being remote from the shopfront I would recommend a very concise build order form signed by the customer at the shopfront.
( like Capt G uses ), but I expect you would be ontop of things like that.
