Nathanael’s Answer

Probably the easiest way is to set up an online shop first and gauge success there. You can use Amazon or Shopify to quickly create a shop and then we can try a variety of marketing tactics to drive traffic.

Awesome future Entreprenuer,

In addition to what Jean stated, always remember that technology such as cell phones are a high commodity. With that being said, make sure you have a product that is diverse in most of its aspects, and that will stand out against competition. Make your product have meaning and project good value in it, rather it be artistically, vocally, or visually. I will tell you a secret that no one told me to make your journey a little bit easier. When making your plan for your business be sure to focus on as many problems with cell phones that you can identify within the market today. Then write them down because you already have the solution. Include your solutions to solve those problems and why choosing your product would be a better option. Research will be a helpful tool to extract data for your company. So many people have great ideas but fail to set themselves apart from other competitors. This maybe one of the reasons small businesses fail in their first year. Be relentless with your action and ideas and remember, "The Sky is Not the Limit" NAMASTE.

David’s Answer

You have to ask yourself why you want to be your own boss. Must be motivated to solve problems see obstacles as opportunities to overcome. Anyone who is driven solely for profit will work much harder to make a buck so enjoy what you do. Money will just be an added bonus for doing what you love. Diet, exercise, and healthy sleeping also contribute to feeling good, because you want to feel good all the time. Stress will eventually wear the body down. Practice meditation when you jog, swim, or do breathing exercises. Same a prayer. You are in a special train of thought. God made us in thy image. We inherited God's power to create as we see fit. Always stay be honest with yourself to grow spiritually. Fasting on a regular basis helps. You no longer use the logic. The answers just come to you. And lastly. Repeat the simplest "I am" Affirmation. I am happy. If you are happy that means everything is going right. You don't need to bother yourself with the details. It's not important. Stick to vegan meals. Meat is bad.

Jean’s Answer

That is truly inspiring. First of all, you will need to register the business in the state you wish to open the store, get an Employee Identification Number (EIN)/Tax#, and be a reseller to some of the carrier such as AT&T. To create the business, you can use entities like Legalzoom.com and others.
Here are some of the Steps:
Step 1: Do Your Research. ...
Step 2: Make a Plan. ...
Step 3: Plan Your Finances. ...
Step 4: Choose a Business Structure. ... (LLC is the best type)
Step 5: Pick and Register Your Business Name. ... (
Step 6: Get Licenses and Permits. ... (state and Local)
Step 7: Choose Your Accounting System. (1-800accountant is a good place to start).
Step 8: Open a Bank account
Step 9: Develop a website
Step 10: Most importantly - Purchase a general liability insurance.
Thank you comment icon Thank you so much for your reply. I like the steps, they will help me keep focused on each one and I can check it off when I get it done. nancy

Hesh’s Answer

Don’t get stuck buying inventory with money you don’t have. Don’t start off taking a loan - you’ll never get out from under. A store? That’s rent and a lease and utilities and insurance and taxes - whether you make money or not - you still have to pay all this overhead. Don’t have employees - more overhead and taxes and FICA and their lives are dependent upon you.
I recommend a non inventory home based business with extremely low investment.
