How to start a business in Australia

www.freedigitalphotos.net
Australia has a population of 22 million people and a GNI (Gross National Income) per capita of 43,740.00$. If you decide to start a business in Australia here is what you should know:

1.       Where to address to register your company?

You have 2 alternatives:
  •  register through a number of business service providers who use software that deals directly with Application for Registration as an Australian Company (ASIC). These providers can be found searching the internet for ‘shelf company services’ or ‘Australian company registration’.
  •  complete the Application for registration as an Australian company (Form 201) yourself following the guidelines on the back of the application and mail it together with the fee (409 USD) to:
Australian Securities and Investments Commission
PO Box 4000
Gippsland Mail Centre VIC 3841

2.       How many days until the business can be operational?

On average you must wait 2 calendar days before you can legally start operating your business.

3.       How many procedures are necessary to start a business?

Only 2 procedures (yes it’s that simple!) 
  •  Complete and lodge ASIC Form 201 “Application for Registration as an Australian Company"; Obtain a certificate of incorporation and an Australian company number (ACN) 
To complete this step you need around AUD 412 (409 USD). Prior to lodging the application for registration, the applicant should confirm the availability of the proposed company name. If no name is specified, the company will simply be referred to by its Australian Company Number ("ACN").]
  • Register for ABN with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) (no charge)
If your company’s projected annual turnover is AUD$75,000 or more, you must register for Goods and Services Tax (GST) by obtaining an 11-digit Australian Business Number (ABN). The annual company turnover represents its gross business income (not its profit). Companies with lower annual turnover may also choose to register for the Goods and Services Tax. An application for an ABN can be submitted electronically at the Business Entry Point, www.abr.business.gov.au.

To sum up, if you want to start a business in Australia you must wait 2 days, follow 2 procedures and spend around 409$.

Fight depression today


www.freedigitalphotos.net
Depression is a disease. It can hit you when you least expect it and turn your life up side down in a matter of days. If you feel like you don't find your place into this world and everything crumbles down around don't give up! Try these three simple things that will take you away from the dark alley you're on:

1.  Eat a salad. It has been medically proven that depression occurs when your body suffers from vitamin deficiency. Lack of B and D vitamins, specifically, can negatively affect our state of mind. So if you feel blue eat some fresh vegetables or fruits. They will not only reinvigorate you but they will produce chemicals in your brain that will positively affect your mood.

2.  Get out of the house. I know it sounds redundant but going out and mingling with the crowds it's really good for your nerves as it takes your mind off the problems you have. I recommend going into a park. Nature can calm you instantly and people there can distract you.

3. Write. When you're depressed you don’t feel like talking to anyone, you tend to sit alone and think about your situation. You can let your emotions out by writing down what you fell. Don’t worry if you cannot write coherent sentences. What’s important is releasing your feelings.

If the above mentioned steps don't work I strongly recommend that you go out there and talk to someone: a specialist, a family member or a friend. Do not shut yourself from the world but allow yourself to be enfolded in it.
