I was one of the key executives in a company till they sold out. I am thinking of starting a business, but do not know how to go about it. Can anyone help me?
Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things.
One of the first things I would do is read the information on this web site from the US Small Business Administration.
Two other sites that I recommend are: http://www.entrepreneur.com/bizstartups
http://www.businesstown.com/gettingstarted/index.asp
I would also look into the possibility of working with a business coach. This person can help you put together a business plan that best suites your needs.
Hi Gabriel, Yes, I definitely will. There is a very professional company and they offer business coaching. They will help you to achieve success with your goals and will assist in acquiring a new business. They structure role plays and stimulating confrontations about owning a business and the methods of implementing strategies with workshops. Please check out: www.businessforsmarties.com for more information.
I am not certain what sort of business you are interested in starting, but most states have a Small Business Administration that can help with financing and business structuring. Good Luck.
I enjoy work that results in a positive inpact on human performance or in advancing and sharing wisdom. I truly believe that one must become insignificant to become significant.
I highly recommend making sure you deal with an opportunity that can provide you with the kind of rewards you are seeking from a wealth perspective. I will gladly share some info with you on a very exciting opportunity I have started myself.
