To start your own business, it is important to choose a form of legal registration, find a niche in which demand prevails over supply, and write a business plan. If the prospective company requires borrowed funds, you must clearly understand from the very beginning where you can get them and how you plan to give them away. Without a clearly stated investment plan, they are unlikely to give a loan.
It is necessary
- - registration of a legal entity;

Instructions
Step 1
Think about a direction for your own business. Obtain permits, without it, business activities are prohibited at the legislative level. Create a business plan that includes descriptive, production, financial and marketing parts. In particular, describe in as much detail the product or service that you are going to offer, the consumer audience - its demographic composition and preferences, why this audience should buy your product.
Step 2
Be sure to display the market situation: the state of the market, in more detail - the selected industry, and also describe the main competitors. For this description, the following scheme is recommended: the name of the organization, how many years it has been on the market, what assets it owns, how much the target audience is interested, due to which this demand exists.
Step 3
Rent an office or production facility. The requirements for them depend solely on the specifics of your business. In some cases, a room of 10-15 sq.m. located in a typical business center is sufficient. Other business options require large areas, project approval and obtaining permits. By the way, check if your business needs licensing.
Step 4
Hire employees. When making up the staffing table and deciding which positions and in what composition to reflect in it, be guided by the description of the main business processes. Relatively speaking, someone should develop an idea for a product, someone should draw up a budget, produce, advertise, look for sales, calculate taxes, etc. For each position, write a qualification description, which reflects all the competencies, requirements and responsibilities that are assigned to a potential employee. Do not seek to use standard job descriptions - they do not reflect the current state of affairs, because were compiled quite a long time ago and, moreover, for an abstract business.
Step 5
Start production or test a service. After making sure that everything works as it should, start promoting. As a rule, small businesses use local advertising more often - for example, they place it in regional newspapers, bulletin boards, etc. There is a rational grain in this, but it all depends on the concentration of the audience for which your product is designed. For example, if you open an atelier for sewing overalls for Chihuahua, it makes no sense to advertise the enterprise in regional newspapers. Your potential consumers are very wealthy girls and young ladies who read mostly glamorous magazines. In general, the main requirement for advertising sites is that they should be of interest to future buyers or customers.
