| − | When can I realistically expect to start earning a profit from the business? Businesses are almost never profitable from day one. You must therefore be prepared to work on your business and build it up for a while. How long can you afford to do this? You should never start a business before you can answer this question. You can't afford to ignore this question or answer it in a way that's less than honest. If your plan requires you to start earning money from your business immediately, you should rethink this. What kind of products or services do you want to sell? These days almost every business can be started online. You can sell anything from physical products to technical services. You should focus on what you really want to do. Can you make something that there's a demand for? Some find it simpler to sell products that are already in existence. Is there a service you plan to offer? Selling affiliate products is a simple way to get started, if that's your preference. Depending on the kind of business you have, you will have to make the appropriate preparations.

| − | Getting your business running - what are the costs involved to get this done. A business in the off-line world is going to cost you a substantial amount of money. Just keep that in mind prior to running the numbers. If you want to run your business online and from home, this number is a little less scary. This is because the setting up of a website is relatively cheap. Still, try to be realistic as you figure out your start up costs and initial operating budget. You just need to make sure you have enough funds to start, and you'll be fine.

This is just as true for web based businesses as it is for offline businesses. The above questions are well worth spending some time with if you want your business to succeed. Keep in mind, though, that you should expect lots of other questions to arise as you get going!
