So You Want To Open Your Own Home Based Business ?!
by Beth LK
So You Want To Open Your Own Home Based Business?!
Staring up your own business can be exciting and yet scary ! The
online world can make it easier for you, and yet you need to be
careful as it can also scam you !
Do you want to open a new business today ? NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
!!
You want to to do the following FIRST !!!
1. Write down ALL your reasons for wanting to open a business
Doing this will help you remember why you wanted to do this when
times get rough :)
2, Write down ALL the business you would consider running. This
way
you can get all the needed information as you take the below
steps on
everything at once instead of going back and forth on each idea.
3. Find yourself a support partner. Maybe your spouse, a family
member or a friend. Just find someone who will believe in you,
and
allow you the time and support you need to bounce ideas off
them, and
vent when need be.
4. If your business is online. Go online and check out your
competitors, and see how they are doing. Ask yourself can you
compete
with them? How can you make your service better then theirs?
( OOPS ! I almost forgot to tell you : Write down everything on
paper
( that way it's with you when you need it ). It won't take long.
Trust me you can forget half or more of what you have already
researched.
5. If your business is not to be online, then check out your
competitors in your area. Also check out the want/need for this
type
of business. example : you live in a small town of say 700
people,
and there are 5 day cares, 3 cleaning businesses and 2 tax
offices,
then you probably shouldn't do those type of businesses in your
area.
UNLESS you believe you can GREATLY improve on those businesses !
I will tell you my secret here: I use to call my competitors and
have
them give me information thinking I was a customer. Sneaky....
well
probably... :)
6. Go to your search engines and type in needed information.
ASKJEEVES.com is a great tool for this. You actually go there
and
type in your questions. Not just the subject as with most search
engines
7. Visit your local court house and get the needed information
on
permits, licenses etc etc.
8. Visit your local IRS office ( yes you have to do this ) Come
on,
they really don't bite! Mine have been very helpful to me. Tell
them
what types of business you are thinking about and that you need
to
know what to do next if you would open this. Just keep really
GOOD
records or they may not be so helpful the next time you see them
:)
9. Make a list of NEEDED supplies/equipment to get this business
STARTED. Figure out the costs.
10. Ok now your almost there. Get a cup of coffee and all your
papers. Don't forget your support partner. Go over everything
you
have collected.
11. Ask yourself these questions :
a. will any of these ideas fit into my family life?
b. do I think any of these ideas will work?
c. can I afford to do this?
d . why/how to reasons A. B. C. ( write this down as your
talking )
12. Ok you now have a match right ? Your ready to go !!!
Oh you can't afford it after all..... so your done right ?
NO NO NO NO NO !
Ask yourself these questions next.
1. how bad do you want to do this? REALLY BAD???? Ok now then
ask
yourself theses questions.
a. can you get a part time job to support the cost of the
business at
first?
b. can you open a different business for right now to pay for
the one
you really want? Ok your already working long hours and can't
take a
another job on.... now ask yourself this.
Can you redo your game plan and start out smaller at first?
YES YOU CAN !!!!! IN ANY BUSINESSES THIS CAN ALWAYS BE DONE TO A
CERTAIN DEGREE ! You don't have to have everything other
companies
have when you first start out. This may make your job rougher
but if
you really want it..Go for it !!!!
