1.FIND A GOOD BUSINESS IDEA
A good business idea isn’t just one that turns a profit. It’s one that’s a good fit for you personally, for your target market, and for your location. Hopefully you’re going to be in business for a long time, so pick something you love.
2.CHOOSE THE TYPE OF BUSINESS YOU WANT TO START
A traditional business isn’t right for everyone. If you want to hit the ground running with a tried-and-tested business model, a franchise may be a better fit for you, or if you like the idea of doing good at the same time, why not a nonprofit, or a social enterprise?
3.DO YOUR MARKET RESEARCH

5.WRITE YOUR BUSINESS PLAN
While you don’t need a 40-page business plan in order to get your business up and running, if you’re seeking funding, banks and investors may ask for one.
6.BRAND YOUR BUSINESS
A strong brand is the key to customer loyalty and higher sales. Now that you know a bit more about your target audience, you’ve got the opportunity—through your brand—to grab their attention.
7.MAKE IT LEGAL
Before you can open shop and comfortably start doing business, you’ve got to make sure you’ve checked all the necessary boxes. You are going to have to do some things “by the book.”
8.GET FINANCED
While not every startup needs outside funding, most businesses do require some help, at least at the beginning. If you’ve worked through your business plan and have a sound handle on your financials, pitching for funding should be a breeze.
9.MARKET AND LAUNCH YOUR BUSINESS
It’s time to start getting people hyped up about your opening day. This is your opportunity to get things going with a bang!
