Before you embark on this journey, be sure to properly prepare. |
An idea and a dream of owning your own business. That's how many small business owners began their journey. For some people owning a business may be a second career, or a result of being downsized. Whatever the reason, owning a business is hard work and not for the faint of heart. Be prepared to work hard, wear a lot of hats and stretch yourself out of your comfort zone quite regularly.
Like any big goal, if you start by breaking it down into smaller tasks, you'll be able to tackle enough of the actions necessary to get started. SCORE, a nonprofit organization of volunteer executives, is a great place to get free business advice and guidance. We recommend you follow these steps toward entrepreneurship.
