If you dream of your own business and want to open your own store, you need to know some of the nuances in order to carry out your venture in accordance with the law. In addition, possession of as complete information as possible about this type of entrepreneurship is the key to success in the future.
Instructions
Step 1
Make a business plan. Consider in it the costs of renting premises, purchasing goods, purchasing commercial equipment, salaries to sellers and an accountant. Calculate the minimum daily revenue at which the store will not operate at a loss.
Step 2
Find future suppliers. Apart from a competitive purchase price, pay attention to the quality of the product and check all licenses. Discuss options for possible cooperation and clarify all the nuances.
Step 3
Pick up a room. The location of the store should have good traffic of people of your target contingent. Make sure there are no competitors nearby. Of course, you can think of how to attract customers, but some of them will still go to another store.
Step 4
Come up with a name for your store. It should match what you are selling. Also, choose a name that is positive, original and easy to remember.
Step 5
Register your store as a limited liability company or sole proprietor. Gather all the required paperwork. To register an LLC, it is necessary to draw up a memorandum of association and register a share in the authorized capital of each member of the company. Write an application, pay the state fee for registering a legal entity with Sberbank and submit all documents to the tax office.
Step 6
Purchase commercial equipment and a cash register that needs to be registered with the tax office.
Step 7
Find sales staff and set up a work schedule. Remember that employees must be registered in accordance with the law. If you work as an individual entrepreneur, you just need to conclude a contract with employees. Find a reliable, competent accountant if you can't do the bookkeeping yourself.
Step 8
Take care of advertising. You want potential buyers to know that your store has opened. Information can be provided by hiring promoters to distribute flyers or by providing outdoor advertising. Alternatively, you can run advertisements on television and radio.
