Getting Started: Choosing a Type of Business

Know More: Small Business Startup 2.0, Small Business Startup

If you are just starting out in business (or thinking of starting out) and don't already know what type of business you want, the number of options available to you can be overwhelming.

Personally, I know that I considered several options before deciding to stick with what I know best: writing.

Fortunately, you don't have to make your startup decisions in a vacuum. The purpose of this post is to provide you with some resources that you can turn to if you need an overview on the available options.

Here are two perspectives on various types of businesses that you could run:

From About.com: Small Business: Canada - What Type of Business Should You Start?
From womanowned.com - What Type of Business Should You Start?

Here are some tips for choosing the legal structure of your business:

From Entrepreneur.com - Choosing a Business Structure
From the U.S. Small Business Association - Choose a Structure

Questions to ask to determine if the business fit into your life:

From PowerHomeBiz.com - Tips on Choosing Your Home Business

What about you? Did you consider several different home businesses before settling on the business you run now?

Leave a comment and let us know.

Cheesy but I think that it's the business that chose me. :-D

It's because I never thought of putting up a home based business but it just happened naturally. I just went with the flow because I like where the flow led me.

Hi Alfa,
I want to commend you on one thing, that you made a DECISION and once you did you went for it.
You will be successful and I wish you all the success with your business.
I have been working my business for 4 years and despite the many obstacles because life does get in the waybut I was determined not to give up because 4 years ago I too made a DECISION to work my own business.
And I have had great success.

Keep it going Alfa!!!!!!
