Before you even start researching the feasibility of your idea and the market you plan on entering, evaluate your own talents, desires and goals. Consider your willingness to take risks as well as the amount of time and energy you’ll need to make the business a success. Review your financial, personnel and marketing skills as well to ensure you have the necessary background to make a success of your new venture.
