Hi,

I just stumbled across this site trying to look for information on setting up a business. I just moved up to blue mountains area. I just wanted some advice, would it be worth having a go?

Hi Jennifer,

Welcome and good luck, your own business is exciting, fulfilling (and even a little bit terrifying) but so worth it.

The key to success is to really do your research, at every level.
Research your product or service, the area you wish to service, the competition, the legal aspects, the ethical aspects etc etc.

We found the best way to structure our research so we covered ALL the bases was to do a business plan. There are plenty of places to source templates for these but I would recommend the Australian Business Register as a starting point...it has links to just about everything you could ever need. The good ole ATO site is pretty good too.
