Hello,
I am trying to start a business and am not sure how. I have been in the catering business throughout a 20 yr marriage but now I am divorced and looking for one I can tackle from home. Maybe an internet sales business. Can you give me some pointers on how I would begin to start this kind of business and what licenses and corporation requirements are needed or if I can get an attorney to help me?? I really do not know, can you please lead me in the right direction that will help me?
Thank you,

Angela

Hi Angela,

I think that your best bet is to talk with someone at a Florida Small
Business Development Center. These not-for-profit centers offer
inexpensive and free workshops and one-on-one counseling. I would
suggest taking their basic class on starting a business and then
talking with a counselor if you have more questions.

Here is a list of SBDCs around the state.

Also, as I'm sure you know, you have to investigate any work-at-home
business before you sign up and pay any money. Here's some information
from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission that you might find helpful.
