If you go into a startup unorganized, chances are it will be a mess or won’t even get off the ground at all.

There are pros out there you can work with to make things much smoother for you to get your startup up and running. As such, take advantage of those resources.

2. Will employees be part of the mix?

Depending on the type of startup you have, you may or may not have employees as part of the mix. It is important to know this ahead of time so you can prepare. You may feel as if you can handle everything and do not need workers now. There of course could always be the possibility down the road of adding them. Knowing if you need employees will allow you to better figure out your finances now and moving ahead.

You also need to decide if you will work out of your home full-time or have an office set aside somewhere. Having an office of course means more expenses. That is should you have to rent property, pay utilities, pay for office furniture and more. By deciding the direction of a startup ahead of time, who it will involve and where it will run out of, you can organize.

3. Deciding how to get the message out

Your startup won’t get too far if you do not have a good means of marketing it. That said think ahead of time of how best to spread your message. You will want to have a website for starters. Also make sure you have a solid presence on social media. Having a small business app is never a bad thing. That app allows consumers to download it to their smartphones. As a result, they have 24/7 access to all your startup will have to offer.

You should also be active with your startup in the local community. This is a good means of drumming up new business. Use any and all resources available to you so you can be seen and heard.

In taking steps to get your startup going and in the right direction, will you check all your boxes of things to do?
