Whenever discussing "business", it's compulsory to show a photo of several corporate-types sitting around a monitor pretending to be working ... I promise I will never include such a photo on this blog.
These days there are quite a number of resources (both online and offline) that can help you with the formal requirements of starting a business and ensuring you do it properly. There are a tonne of business books and government services that have been created for this purpose.
But personally, I often find some of these to be less helpful than they could be. They can be poorly written, overly complicated, or just plain OVERWHELMING. So my goal here is to simplify them, and create a “digestible” series of tutorials that get you on the way. This series includes the following tutorials:
List of Tutorials
- How to Start a Business in Australia – Licencing
- How to Start a Business in Australia – Choosing a Business Structure (Sole Trader)
- How to Start a Business in Australia – Choosing a Business Structure (Partnership)
- How to Start a Business in Australia – Choosing a Business Structure (Trusts)
I hope you find them helpful.
