You will need to decide what type of business you would like to create, such as online or traditional retail storefront. Then you will need to register your business with the state and obtain any necessary licenses and permits. Next, you should research potential costs for starting up your business, including startup expenses, taxes, insurance, marketing materials, and other fees. Finally, you should consider creating a business plan that outlines how you will finance and operate your business.
