Writer's picture: Lisa HallsmanLisa Hallsman

A business is not something you can do in one night. It takes time to nurture and make it grow. You have to have knowledge on what type of people you want to do your business with, and go through some type of training so you can get accustomed to the business industry. Whether it’s a sole proprietorship, partnership, LLC, corporation, etc., figure out what entity you want to enlist as your business. Most start-up’s and generally businesses, register under LLC as it is the easiest, most cost effective and protective entity type out of the rest.

  1. No matter how big or small your business is – you need to have a proper financial expert . They advise you in important financial decisions and help prevent negative cash flow. Financial professionals make sure everything is in order. Bookkeepers, for example, are responsible for recording ALL transactions made by the business. They produce reports, financial statements, and keep track of them.

  2. Having a social media account does not equate to having a personal website for your business. You have to house your services in an area where people can find more information about your business. Your website does not have to be top-notch. A simple web design will suffice.

  3. The business industry is for those who are ready to take risks and falls. You have to know, study and observe your competitors in detail. Pick your strengths well. This helps distinguish you from the other businesses and make you stand out in the crowd. Consider this as one of the firsts steps in the business world.

  4. It is not an easy industry due to its complexity and it’s ever changing speed. Prior to actually setting your organization up, you have to have a loyal team. For instance, you have to already know who is going to be your right-hand man and who is going to handle things such as marketing & design. Creating a diverse team helps your business be seen from different perspectives which aids in its growth. This helps with the prevention of mistakes and mishaps as well.
