These things include:
The Market Trend: You should look into the market that you want to target and know how to relate to them as well as their needs. Understanding their needs will help you make the best choice regarding service provision or the product to sell.

The product you want to sell: It is more advisable that one looks out for a need and addresses it with their business. Look at the thing that is scarce and in high demand and start supplying that thing. This way, you will have the market drawn to you.

Competition: Look out for your competition. Study them so that when you launch your business, so as you do not fall below the competitive standards. If you open a business and the competitor is in a position to bury you, then you are in trouble. Therefore, always come in with the ‘same’ idea but different implementation so that you become a real competition.

Finances available: Come up with a plan that fits your budget. Do not jump into a business that needs more than you have. Get into a business that will maximize on the finances you have effectively. If you do not, then you should prepare to deal with a headache of dealing with a budget that is way over your head. This may frustrate your efforts if not taken care of.

Know everything about the business: There are legal papers needed like permits and taxation requirement that accompany the opening stages of a business. Make sure that you are aware of all these; all the requirements.

Location: location is a very important aspect of the business. You should be thinking of an online store and a physical store. The physical store should be at an easily accessible place.
