Stop overthinking. Start building.
Starting a business doesn’t require a 50-page business plan, thousands of dollars in startup capital, or years of preparation. What it actually takes is a clear, no-nonsense roadmap focused strictly on the absolute minimum essentials needed to launch safely, legally, and profitably.
Written by Dominique Starks, Getting Started cuts through the noise and operational burnout to deliver a streamlined, step-by-step framework for aspiring entrepreneurs, freelancers, and side-hustlers.
What You’ll Learn Inside:
-
The Foundation: How to pick a memorable name, check availability, and choose the right legal structure (Sole Proprietorship vs. LLC vs. C-Corp) without getting bogged down in legal jargon.
-
The Money Engine: Master the #1 rule of business finance (never mix funds!), set up business banking, and build a frictionless bookkeeping system from day one.
-
Legal & Regulatory Basics: Essential permits, licenses, and core contracts you need to protect yourself and your assets before taking your first payment.
-
Minimal Viable Marketing: Ditch complex sales funnels. Learn how to launch a high-converting, single-page website and pick the single best acquisition channel for your niche.
-
Operations & Delivery: Simple fulfillment checklists and communication setups to ensure flawless execution and happy customers after every sale.
Whether you’re launching your first service business, selling physical products, or turning a side hustle into a full-time venture, Getting Started gives you the clarity and confidence to go from idea to launch without the overwhelm.
