Getting Started
Once you've decided that you have what it takes to start a business of your own, determined the kind of business you want, and evaluated your chances of success, you have to begin setting it up. To get started,
consider the following:
- Choosing professionals to assist you discusses your need for a
professional when you are starting your business, including insight
on how to assess your needs and how to find a professional.
-
Building a business plan addresses what a business plan is and
why it is essential for your new business.
-
Organizing your business considers the legal steps necessary to
get your business up and running, such as choosing a name and
form of organization.
-
Getting a loan for your business addresses the need for financing
for your business and gives you some suggestions for raising
startup funds.
-
Setting up your books tells you what you should do to make sure
that your business record keeping gets off to a good start, and
explains how you can spread out some of your startup cost
deductions for a period of up five years.
