The idea, no matter how innovative, quirky or clever it may be is actually the easy bit. Developing it into a proper business though, that’s when things can get tough. But the more researching, planning and organizing you do, the less tough it will actually be.

This is really where all the other bits and pieces come together:

• the skills you have
• the skills you’re going to need
• the market research
• the product or service
• the prototype
• the finances
• the costings
• the list goes on....

If you’re not the organized type, then you’re going to either have to learn pretty sharpish or set about finding someone who is. This is where a business can really start to take shape - whatever shape that may be - it’s your business after all...

To help that shape forming take place, we’ll point you in the direction of some of the most useful resources we can find. And just like developing a business, we’ll be adding new bits all the time.
