SMALL BUSINESS

Being a small business entrepreneur can be a daunting task right from the start forcing you to “working on the business” rather than “working in the business”.

Most family run businesses whilst expecting a regular income stream from the outset fail to recognise the problems that may face in making it a success story. Not only they have to invest precious time resources to raise the initial capital, develop technical knowhow, deal with paperwork but also concentrate on getting the new clients. At times without any professional help they try to overstretch by do multi-tasking all alone whilst experiencing information overload and lack of direction & planning. Such as:

  • What type of entity it should be? Single owner, partnership or a limited company?
  • Do I need to register with any professional associations? Have a patent or a trade mark?
  • How do I comply with data security, corporate governance, tax, health & safety and employment laws?
  • Do I have adequate management reporting and accounting systems in place?
