A Systematic Guide to Small Business Formation For The Enterprising Entrepreneur

This thesis serves to research and catalog the process of small business formation and many of the important resources and factors that may be involved when an entrepreneur seeks to start a business. The overall goal here is that any individual who desires to form their own business can do so entirely with the information in this thesis, or sources included in this thesis. The paper breaks down this information into chapters of finance, registration, tax, legal, and marketing to best assist the early aspects of the business. Additionally, this paper tracks the costs associated with starting a small business to give the reader the necessary financial information of small business formation. This thesis estimates the required costs to be approximately fourteen hundred dollars, with an expected amount to be higher for all other costs associated with the business.
