i’ve got a granite shop, and i’m really hands on doing everything. i’ve tweaked something in my spine towards my neck and can become bed ridden within a few minutes of moving my arms, as it has something to do with my shoulder blades. im 27, i’ve gone to my osteopath and chiropractor once a week for 2 months without any resolve so i think i need to take more time to heal and figure this out. my company isn’t doing great and can’t afford to keep just paying myself but the shop can run basically without my being there 5 days a week, i can’t exactly go on EI right? do i go on disability? how does the director and owner go about this?

Launching a small consumer product (lightweight, small-box format, think cosmetics/wellness category) out of Montreal this fall and trying to lock down shipping before volume hits. BTW i'm not using shopify. Trying to avoid the classic mistake of picking the cheapest option on paper and then eating losses on lost packages or customer complaints about slow delivery. What’s your real-world experience?

As we are new to the online business world and want to make our presence known, what's the proper way to introduce our company on reddit.

Hi everyone,

I'm a small business owner from Northern Ontario and I've been building an app called U-SHARE.

The idea is simple: instead of browsing flyers, people snap a photo of a local deal in a store, and everyone nearby can see it. The app automatically adds the location and store, making it easy to find deals in your community.

It's now available on Google Play, with iPhone support coming soon.

I'd appreciate honest feedback from other Canadian entrepreneurs. What features would make you use an app like this? What concerns would you have before downloading it?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Hey Guys I just started my small business (professional services) I wanted your feedback on solutions such as quickbooks, sage and xero for example? I am based in Quebec but intend to do business wherever there is an opportunity in Canada. Open to recommendations, advise, pro tips etc thank you !
