I am from the UK and am looking to think about a self-employment plan. If there's anyone here who could help me I'd be very very grateful.

    Mark... smallbusinessgateway could be a good start, they help you write business plans and stuff for taking to the banks. :)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
  • What is the business idea? How much capital would it take to get started? What competitive advantages do you think the biz will have?

    Probably most importantly, do you have decent credit and some collateral so you can get a loan from the bank? If you have these two things, banks will generally give you a loan even if your business plan sucks.
