Using the Professionals
|
 |
One
of the most difficult aspects of starting and running a small business
is knowing what are the requirements for compliance with the law and
government regulations and what business pitfalls to avoid.
There
are at least 3 important professionals whose services are invaluable to
the beginning entrepreneur: the lawyer, accountant and banker. Sooner
or later, though, you'll be hiring other professional to help you in
some aspect of your business.
Here's a list of professionals and an idea of what each one can do for
you.

 THE LAWYER |
|
A lawyer can offer you expert advice on
establishing a small business, buying an existing business, or
evaluating a franchise opportunity. He or she can also help you draw up
a partnership agreement, plan for expansion through incorporation, sale
or purchase of business, provide research and advice, etc.
|
|
| THE ACCOUNTANT |
|
Many businesses use the service of an
accountant to put their income tax information together once a year.
The good accountant can provide you with much more. He or she can help
you interpret financial information so you can make business decisions
based on facts.
|
|
| THE BANKER |
|
When you open any form of business with a
bank, you can usually call upon the training and expertise of its
professionals to help you start and build your enterprise. You should
tell him/her about your business idea at early stage.
|
|
| OTHER PROFESSIONALS |
|
Every business revolves around making
decisions, often risky, usually with incomplete information and too
often in less time than we need. Business owners and executives at
every level, in every industry, are confronted with information
overload, less leeway for mistakes, and a business environment that
changes rapidly.
