Business Entry Options

There are typically three avenues available when going into business:

  1. Starting a new venture
  2. Purchasing an existing business
  3. Purchasing a franchise

It is advisable to seek professional accounting and legal help before starting any business.

A new start-up is typically pursued when you have a unique idea that requires special equipment, specialized talents or a new way of doing things.

By purchasing a business that is already established, you may eliminate some of the problems associated with starting a brand new business.

Franchising offers a unique opportunity for individuals interested in operating a business. It allows you to both own and operate a business while drawing from the resources of the parent company.
