Hi Abrahim!

I would suggest the below 3 steps to help you start your own business.

1. You need to register your business with the Secretary of State (SOS). Most businesses register in the state where the business is actually located (HQ Address). At the same time you will need to decide the entity type for your business such as a LLC, Inc, LTD. Make sure you register with a state so your business can operate legally.

2. Come up with a business plan. This would include items such as operations, location, capital/funding, vision/mission statement etc. You can easily get lost in the weeds on this part. Don't get caught up in details that you can figure out later. Think big picture and ask yourself what is your business really trying to accomplish? That is always a good starting point on a business plan!

3. Lastly, come up with different business goals and set dates when you want to accomplish them. Setting a timeline will help you stay on track and know where you are in the process. It is very difficult but don't let yourself get caught up in the whirlwind of the "day to day." Meaning, set yourself and the business up with clear goals and do your best to not let the "daily fires" use up all your time. Inadvertently, you will have to attend to some of these daily fires but make sure you block off time to keep the vison of the company alive.

Out of the many business books I have read, if I could only suggest two business books to you, it would be the books below. Hope these thoughts help and good luck on the journey!

Carmen’s Answer

Embarking on a business journey can be a thrilling yet intimidating experience! However, with a robust network of individuals in your desired field, ongoing learning, and a sunny disposition, you're already on the path to success! The significance of aligning yourself with people who are where you aspire to be cannot be overstated. Have you ever heard the saying, "Birds of a feather flock together"? Choose to mingle with those you admire. This gives you the opportunity to learn from their hurdles, tribulations, and victories. Furthermore, strive to expand your knowledge as much as possible in the field you wish to conquer. Depending on the nature of the business, it might take some time to firmly establish your roots. Therefore, I recommend gaining experience by working for someone else until you're confident in independently managing your own business. As your enterprise flourishes, you can gradually reduce your commitments elsewhere.

Yanna’s Answer

Discover what truly excites you, then evaluate the market's supply and demand for the product or service you intend to offer. Conduct a SWOT analysis to understand your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Gather necessary funds and devise a strategic marketing plan. It's often beneficial to team up with a partner when starting a business. Don't forget to harness the power of technology to help grow your enterprise.
