|
1. ADDING ONE OR MORE WEBSITES TO YOUR BUSINESS
2. ADVERTISING, MARKETING, AND NETWORKING YOUR WEBSITES ON ESTABLISHED WEB MAGAZINES
3. BUSINESS CARDS AND FLIERS PROMOTING YOUR ONLINE PRESENCE AND WEBSITE
|
|
|
|
IN ORDER FOR A BUSINESS TO USE THIS INCREASE IN ONLINE PRESENCE AS A UTILITY EXPENSE FOR THE PP PROGRAM |
|
THIS IMPORTANT WEB SERVICE SHOULD BE PERFORMED AND INVOICED BY AN ESTABLISHED INTERNET BUSINESS |
|
HAVING FRIENDS AND FAMILY DO THIS WORK FOR YOUR BUSINESS |
LEAVES YOU OPEN FOR A BANK AUDIT IN THE FUTURE WHICH MAY LEAD TO A REPAYMENT OF THIS MONEY |
|
