If you’ve been dreaming of starting your own business, and are ready to put your plan into action, read on for the first steps any would-be entrepreneur needs to take in order to launch her own business.

1. Choose your product or service

Most self-starters have a good idea about the product or service they will offer the public, or other businesses. If you’re still undecided about yours, look at your hobbies, interests or talents for inspiration. Or search online for businesses that are currently available for resale or franchising, or for a product you’d like to sell. At the same time, try to imagine the customer who might be interested—or not—in the product or service.

2. Know your customers—and your competitors

The saying “for every customer there’s a dozen competitors” may not apply in your field, or at least not yet.
