The first step in starting a small business is to create a business plan. This should include researching the market, drafting a mission statement, estimating start-up costs, and projecting future profits. Once you have a business plan, you need to register the business with the government and obtain any necessary permits and licenses. Finally, once you have registered, it is important to set up an effective accounting system to keep track of your finances and ensure your business is running successfuly.
