1. Don’t do it alone - You NEED a support system while you’re starting a business (and afterwards). A family member or friend that you can bounce ideas off and who will listen sympathetically to the latest businses start up crisis is invaluable. Even better, find a mentor or, if you qualify, apply for a business start up program. Experienced guidance is the best support sytem of all.
2. Get clients or customers first - Don’t wait until you’ve offically started your business to line these up, because your business can’t survive without them. Do the networking. Make the contacts. Sell or even give away your products or services. You can’t start marketing too soon.
3. Write a business plan - The main reason for doing a business plan first is that it can help you avoid sinking your time and money into starting a business that will NOT succeed.
4. Do the research - You’ll do a lot of research working through a business plan, but that’s just a start. You need to become an expert on your industry, products and services, if you’re not already. Joining related industry or professional associations before you start your business is a great idea.

Nice Post. But I would like to suggest when you are starting your small business, you have to learn to be flexible as your business grows. The market trends keep changing and if you want to be successful you have to be willing to change with the times.
