Starting a business is a process, a long process. It takes more than just the desire to work for yourself to make your business thrive. Planning, researching, learning, and being in compliance are skills that are also needed to operate a business. This is in addition to your other most commonly known skills such as marketing, sales, purchasing, operations, financing, management. You get the point!

Often times we talk to business owners that have companies generating a profit, looking to grow and seeking funding, but we soon discover that their business was not properly established. For instance, recently we had a prospect that he had not done taxes in years. Although the company was established, we were not able to assist him at that time because this important part of running a business was not completed.

In order to avoid delays, here is an self assessment with questions and recommendations  for Getting Your Business In Business.
