Since it seems that this is your first time in business, I would highly recommend that you talk to a business counselor before you do anything especially spend money. You have to determine what legal form your business will take and how you are going to attract customers. I d call the local office of SCORE (see link below and input your zip code to find the chapter nearest you), the advice is FREE. The counselor at SCORE will most likely advise you to write a business plan which is very good advice because it will force you to dig out all of the start up details and the costs of starting your small business and force you to also understand all of the aspects of this business including the customers you ll concentrate on (your market) and how you ll go after them.You ll need to register the business with your state controller s office and make sure that you have any city and county licenses if any are needed where you live. All of this will come out in a business plan.You ll also find good advice at YCHANGE International (see link below) and read some of the articles especially the ones about a business plan and starting a business.
