What I am doing to make my business a reality

I am going to create a successful business with recurring revenue. But there are a few things I am going to accomplish before I make this thing really successful.

    1. Technically I already have a business

    0

    I currently have an LLC that has a piece of property inside it. But I want to unlock the value there.

    2. Currently in the process of selling the property to unlock the capital

    0

    Right now real estate is really high and my property is in a good location. I am fine with selling it and using that money as seed capital for my business.

    The vast majority of the money will go into cash savings for a rain day, the other small portion will be used to experiment with business ideas.

    3. Clients

    0

    I already have 2 business clients, but I have a plan to get more and grow that annual revenue.

    I have a list of people that I am going to reach out to.

    And then I also have a marketing plan to reach more people.

    If I can get 200 customers I can replace my current income.

    4. Quickbooks

    0

    Having some type of accounting system will keep more organized, but also remind me to do things and keep me on track.

    5. Chase business account

    0

    The llc already has a business account, but it is not good. Chase is more expensive, but also has more business services.

    6. Investment account

    0

    Currently using Fidelity, need to actually connect and fund the account.

    7. Marketing

    0

    I think it would be good to have some type of marketing software to keep track of potential sales leads. Need to investigate Hubspot or Salesforce etc.

    8. Build the business website

    0

    Somehow in my mind this will make the business more legitimate and make me take it more seriously.

    9. Create a name, email and phone number for the business

    0

    10. Don't quit - I can always work on this business for one more day

    0

    11. Remember Berkshire Hathaway

    0

    Your not just building one buisness, but multiple streams of income under one umbrella

    12. The goal is to provide great products and generate recurring cash flow

    0

    13. Keeping it lean

    0

    I can run this whole business myself. Might use a CPA or bookeeper if this grow.

How is it applying for an LLC? Is it difficult and costly?

Not hard. I did it through LegalZoom and it was pretty easy. It does cost money, I dont remember exactly, but I know it was less than $500

Do it. Even if you do not have a business yet, you will put it out in the world that you will one day have one.

I love quickbooks! They are one of the best accounting softwares... I prefer their cloud-based.
