I posted this in work from home too (I think) so apologies if you're retreading.
DP and I have an idea that seems pretty good. In order to make it happen we would need to find someone to manufacture the custom items we would want to sell. We would have a brand and (hopefully) the potential for products to be sold in retail, eventually.
I've been reading up and spoken to a few people and they say start as a sole trader and register and go from there: our problem is we have no finance and in order to (ideally) get some we have to produce a business plan and do research etc
Where do we start with this? We currently have no idea on the costs involved, since they would be custom items do we order and pay for them and go from there or do we just do it all "hypothetically"? We would need a website and a business account etc - presumably these are costs we can work out without actually doing them. And the same for the brand logo etc. We will need an address for delivery and postage. Do we just get a P.O. Box for that?
Sorry this is so long, it's only a few of the questions we have but it seems such a big challenge!
