Aside from the actual goods and services, what should I charge my customers for?

Fees you can pass down to your customers.

Internet sales tax advice: The internet is a very competitive landscape, so it would be wise to pass as little of your online business costs down to the customer. This will keep your prices competitive. However, it is generally agreed that shipping costs, internet sales tax for your state and (in some cases) a handling fee for items that require time to package. Of all these charges, the most innocuous would be the online purchase sales tax. Consumers are generally used to going into their favorite store and paying sales tax, so an internet sales tax is nothing new. However, very few people walk into a grocery store and pay extra for the bag clerk to package their groceries.
