Business Start up Guide
 |
People start and operate businesses for many reasons. Regardless of why you are interested in starting and operating your own business, we want you to be successful. A successful business is good for you, the people that work for you, and the country's economy. An unsuccessful business disrupts human lives, wastes capital, and hurts the state's economy.
Establishing a business is not particularly difficult. However, planning for and developing a profitable, growing business is a complex, ongoing process. Adequate planning, attention to details, and realistic expectations are critical to your success, especially if the business grows rapidly.
This Business Start up Guide is designed to:
- provide you with an overview of the major steps the Jamaica Business Development Center considers crucial to planning and starting a business, and
- provide you with useful information you can use in planning and starting your business.
