Small Business Startups

June 30, 2011 :: by Linda Jo Martin

When you’re starting a small business, get the best advice possible. Take plenty of time for pre-planning, especially regarding your small business bookkeeping. Get on a firm footing with the essential requirements of small business ownership, so later you won’t feel overwhelmed by administrative expectations and record keeping.

Become thoroughly acquainted with your state and county legal requirements, learn best practices from other small business owners. Consider joining your local Chamber of Commerce so you can meet other local business owners and learn from them about how small businesses are operated in your locality.

Some of the issues you may be confronted with as a small business owner are funding, brand positioning, hiring, employee relations, and strategic planning. You’d be wise to become well-versed in all these small business issues before they become a confusing problem for you.

Every small business owner goes through these steps so do not consider them overwhelming. Take them one step at a time, and learn as much as you can. Once you open the doors, or launch the website for your online business, you’ll find that much of your time goes into daily operations. It is scary how quickly your business can become popular and busy! So learn at the beginning, and later when you need information on a specific situation or issue, refresh your memory about what needs to be done.

About Me

Hi! I'm Linda Jo Martin, an artist in training. Formerly I was a xhtml/css web designer. This used to be my webdesign business site. Since I retired I've preserved the old articles about webdesign business issues but transformed the site for my adventures in creativity. This includes art, writing, and whatever else comes up in the creativity sector of life. I also review books. I'll review art books here, but my main site for book reviews is Linda Book Lady.

Hello – I’m going to use this corner of the universe to tell you how happy I am that you stopped by to visit my site. This website has been a long-term project for me. I started my webdesign business back around 2002 and used it to supplement my meager income while my children were growing up. What a joy it was to be able to earn some money and help support the family! However now my children are adults and I’m retired. I still live in the Klamath River Valley here in far-northern California. My heart and thoughts have turned to art, something I saved for my retirement years. I call myself an artist in training, but truly, I think artistry training should never end.
