Startup Checklist
First Read All The Information Linked In The Navigation Bar
If you look at the navigation bar to the right you will see a category called tools. The information there is very important. It can save you time, money and make the difference between you surviving and failing.
Please read that information. And please click on every one of the links to see the information under the links. Some of it will be very useful to you as you set up your business plan.
After you have read all the information:
Register your company name / internet trade name / domain name . Do it before you do anything else. Your image is important. You can read about your image here and you can register here (very inexpensive in short run) or here (more flexibility and a better deal for long run. Plus you get a free domain name).
Stop and plan before you buy an online store.
Do your market research. There are two market research wizards that you can use. The first is a stand alone product Market Research Wizard and the second comes with the Wholesale Pages directory. You are advised to use one or both.
If you are going to sell the products in this site, we recommend that you use a Yahoo Store. See our discussion of the reasons why at Yahoo Merchant Services
You can also set up a free store using WordPress and the free WordPress shop cart plug in. How to do that is here.
Disclaimer
I push these books and these systems because if you use them you are likely to sell more of our products. The more you sell the more likely you are to succeed and the more money we make. In short, they help you, and that helps us.
