Start-up
Consultation
As
enticing as the idea of owning your own business can be, it can
too often be overshadowed by a paralyzing fear of the unknown -
one so strong that many abandon the idea altogether, passing it
off as wishful thinking.
Indeed,
there is much to know when considering going into business for yourself,
from developing your business concept to understanding the laws
to which you will be subject as a small business owner. Your success
will greatly depend on how well-prepared and informed you are to
take on the challenge of starting a business.
Azure
Small Business Solutions' inexpensive Start-up Consultation service
is an enlightening experience that every aspiring business owner
should have. For a surprisingly small fee, we will meet with you
and provide the information and resources that you will need in
order to succeed as a start-up business. Step by step, we will guide
you through the often-confusing and overwhelming process of starting
a business.
In
one consultation, we will set your feet firmly on the path toward
a successful start-up by providing the following:
Business
Concept Development & Counseling - We will
review your business concept with you and offer our professional
advice as to how you can maximize your potential while minimizing
risks. If you have not chosen a name for your business, we can
even work with you to develop one.
Preliminary
Name Search - We will verify that your chosen
business name is available, both for a business license and for
a Web domain (should you choose to incorporate a Web site into
your marketing plan). And if that business name is unavailable,
we can help you come up with another one.
Recommendation
on Type of Business Entity - We will help you
to determine which type of business entity will work best for
your particular situation. From sole-proprietorship all the way
up to full-blown corporation, there are a great number of factors
that can affect your decision as to which type of business entity
you should choose. We will explain all of the options to you and
make recommendations based on which of those options would be
the most logical - and lucrative - for you.
Form
Preparation - We will not only tell you which
forms you will need to complete to make your business happen,
but we will also bring them with us and help you complete them.
These forms will include the following:
- Business

Tax Registration Forms

Identification Number Form
- Any
Other Necessary Forms
Education
on Financing Sources & Requirements - We will
educate you on various financing options for growing your business
and direct you to potential lenders. We will also explain, in
detail, what information and/or documentation those lenders will
require from you in order to be considered a worthy condidate
for financing.
General
Guidance and Q & A - We will teach you the
basics of starting and operating a small business, revealing for
you the pitfalls into which many start-ups plummit. We will also
answer the questions you have and provide you with resources where
you can learn more. In the end, you will know, without a doubt,
if starting a small business is right for you.
