ForumsStarting a Business

You would probably get better advise from this forum if you were to provide further details about yourself in your
profile. Where are you located? Specifically what product or service you will be selling? That sort
of thing. Beyond that, you should be Googling resources like SCORE and SBA for help and advise.
Good luck.

Frazier,

First thing is check out your competition and see if you will make money doing it and how hard you are going have to work to make that first dollar. Supply - Demand... If you are in demand.. Check out the IRS.gov site on what you need to know about starting a new business. Then check out the SBA, Small business Association web site on Starting a new business and the free classes they offer online. SCORE is a great reference source, but do your own research on your industry... When follow though the plans that the IRS and SBA tell you and make certain you get all the detail information in.. Don't use your own SSN to start the business and work on getting business credit lines and not personal credit lines. If you want to work with getting some start up capital.. Focus on make opening up a business bank account under company name and structure... If this seems overwhelming already... Get you a small biz wiz that loves to help small businesses get started...

Good luck and great blessings

I have contacted both SCORE and SBA. Neither of which were very much help with financing. Both looked over my business plan and said it was great. Even the bankers said that it was a great business plan. However, the market is too low to risk such a venue as mine. Details on that, are:

Ennis, TX
Indoor Family Entertainment Center
Blacklight Mini-Golf and Arcade

I have done all my homework and know just about everything there is to know about this industry, including every blacklight mini-golf designer/installer there is in the country. I have tried different approaches with no feedback. Where to now?

I tried score and in pa found them to be a waste of time. Every time i had a question they pawned me off to someone else or never returned my call.

I finally got a call from score. I am going to give them another chance. Somehow I got lost in the phone tag maze.
