BUSINESS STUFF

Different approaches to starting

your own business

A good business idea

A good business idea could be an invention, a new product or service, or an original idea or solution to an everyday problem. It might also be:

  • a gap in the market that you can fill
  • a business related to the work you do already
  • an interest or hobby that you can turn into a business

Whatever your idea is, you need to be sure that it fits with your needs as an individual, as well as being a viable business proposition.

Questions to ask yourself

  • What is it that you will personally bring to the business in terms of relevant experience and expertise?
  • Is there a market - a need for the idea, and customers who will pay for it?
  • How big is the market, and how will you reach it?
  • Who will be your main competitors?
  • What is special about your idea, making it different from similar products or services already out there?
  • How will you fund your idea?
  • What might go wrong?
