I would pay someone to get a business plan prepared for a new business. It helps with so many different aspects of a new business.
You need it to seek small business financing.
You need a map for your businesses marketing, operations, financial, and future goals (the direction of the company).
You'll find that the business plan will help with that.
You may find after completing this plan that the business may not be as successful (realistic) as you thought. Setting up a new business is bigger than a catchy gimick. |

Consider forming a business entity such as an LLC or an S-Corp to limit your personal liability. A good accountant should be able to steer you in the right direction.
There is a great National Non-profit organization that offers free advice for business start-ups (most staffers are volunteers and retired professionals) Check out this site adn look for a chapter near you: http://www.score.org/small_biz_power_links.html |

The best routes to take are to research the process of starting a business as well as the industry you're interested in.
I recommend checking out the SBA, Entrepreneur, The Start Up Journal & Nolo. All 4 are great informational resources for the new/small business owner. I posted links for you in the source box.
Associations may be a good avenue to explore as well. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you'll inevitably have as well as many you haven't anticipated yet.
Research, research, research – this cannot be stressed enough. Read as much as you can. Here are some book titles that are relevant:
* How to Really Start Your Own Business, Fourth Edition by David E. Gumpert
* How to Really Create a Successful Business Plan: Step-by-Step Guide by David E. Gumpert
* What No One Ever Tells You about Starting Your Own Business: Real-Life Start-Up Advice from 101 Successful Entrepreneurs (What No One Ever Tells You About Starting Your Own Business) by Jan Norman
* Business Start-Up Kit by Steven D. Strauss
* Start Your Own Business (Entrepreneur Magazine's Start Up) by Rieva Lesonsky
There are plenty of free informational resources out there. Check the source box for links to articles.
Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures! |
