Starting a Business
Welcome to the World of Business Ownership
To increase your chance for success, explore and evaluate your business and personal goals
Starting and managing a business takes motivation, desire and talent. It also takes research and planning. Like a chess game, success in small business starts with decisive and correct opening moves. And although initial mistakes are not fatal, it takes skill, discipline and hard work to regain the advantage.
To increase your chance for success, take the time up front to explore and evaluate your business and personal goals. Then use this information to build a comprehensive and well-thought-out business plan that will help you reach these goals.
Excellent resources are available through a number of organizations. The Springdale Chamber of Commerce (479-872-2222) will be happy to assist you in identifying your first steps. The Small Business Administration (www.sba.gov) has an excellent website with information and online tutorials for developing a business plan. The University of Arkansas Small Business Development Center (479-575-5148) also can provide counseling and information that can help you get started.
