IDEA

  • To start your own business you obviously have to have an idea.
  • It should be something you're passionate about, or good at.
  • Make sure your business is needed but not provided.
  • If it is provided see if you could sell it better or cheaper.

BUSINESS PLAN

  • This is most useful when looking for investors.
  • To start this you'll need to find your basic cost of operation
  • this is the total of money you will need for the business
  • Once you determine that you'll know if you'll have a profit

PROBLEMS

  • Recognize all of the problems you think you may face.
  • Such as competition.
  • If you both sell some of the same items, you might have to lower prices
  • If their items are cheaper than yours, then you have a big problem
  • Customers will go to them instead for obvious reasons

BUDGET

  • After you know how much money you are dealing with make a budget
  • This will help you make sure you are spending your money wisely
  • And on things that are necessary for your business to be successful.

LOCATION

  • Make sure your business is needed around the location you choose
  • You dont want to pick a random place because you may not be needed
  • Or somewhere where there is too much competition
  • If you dont carefully pick a location you could be out of business before you start
  • It helps if your business is near a known or busy location

LOANS

  • You should talk to a bank to see if they could give you a loan
  • If you go to a bank you are already familiar with you'll have a better chance
  • It will also be easier for them to look over your records
  • And having a positive relationship helps too
