How do I got about starting a small business?

Starting a Small Business

Regulations and rules about starting a small business vary in different towns and states. You'll probably need to get a business license from your town (charges for this vary in different locations). Call your local planning office and find out the requirements in your area. Depending upon the name of your business, you may also need to file a “fictitious business name" statement. If you are going to open a bank account in your business name, you'll need to show the bank your "DBA" statement and your business license.

Why should you go down to the city office if you can do it from your home while sitting at your computer?? I recently came upon a website where you can obtain the forms to get your business license, tax registration application and all kinds of permits. The website is www.businesslicenses.com.
Enjoy and Good Luck!!
