You will have to read and do some researches on each point if you are serious about this and possibly set up an appointment with bookkeeping services in Irvine, CA.

Ideas

Start by thinking about the things that you enjoy doing, and how can you sell them. At this stage don’t worry about the money, sometimes you can start right away, many international companies started at some old garage or bedroom and today are successful. You don’t need a college degree, but you need to understand how to run a business. You will have to read and do some research.

Research

Once you have an idea (or two) you need to perform a market research, find out about benchmarking and how it works, ask people and find out how others are selling their services or products. Standing out as a business that gives an added value to the service or product can help you stand out from the others and give you the advantage.

Business plan

It is not enough to have a good idea, you need to plan ahead and think about different outcomes once you start, think about this step as your guide, you need to write down everything you need and make it look like a company, it doesn’t matter if you are running a small business and you will do it yourself. In this stage you will have to worry about money, you need a budget for the whole business and for each area. Make a list of the costs, supplies, services, etc. Even from the start, create all the basic departments that a company would need to succeed, later on when your business grows, you will be able to fill positions as you need them. The basic departments are Marketing, Sales, Administration, Accounting and Production (that is if you are going to produce something). I don’t mean that you should write the names of the departments and put your name as manager in all of them. What you need to do is to write down the activities that you would need to perform for each of them to work, make a list of all the expenses of each and how much would you need to keep them running. Establish goals for the sales’ department and layout a detailed marketing plan. Bookkeeping is a very important part of the everyday business operation. Even if you don’t have an accountant yet, set up an appointment with the bookkeeping services in Irvine, CA. And find out the proper way to register your daily operations.
