Talk to your local Small Business Administration office. They are there to help you make your business real.First, figure out where you want to open your shop. You want an area where people have lots of money to spend on their pets. If you are not aiming for a pet boutique; how are customers going to buy your dog treats? Then you need to look at the health codes that will affect your business. If you have your kitchen making dog treats, do you have to keep it as clean as place making food for humans? Will pets be allowed in the shop? What requirements are needed for labeling the ingredients? Are you sure the treats are safe for animals? Do they need to be inspected by the state board of veterinarians? Realistically, how much money do you need to generate in a day to stay afloat? Rent, utilities, wages (you need to be paid), advertising, raw materials and cooking equipment need to be paid for. The smaller you can get this number, the better. Then you have to figure out how much each dog treat will have to generate.
