How to Find Out How to Start a Business
Here’s how to use Google for rough market research. If I Google “How to start a business” and I get 281,000 results, I know I am in a hot area. Now, I’m certainly not going to start clicking through 281,000 responses, but, I’ve certainly learned that lots of people have advice, programs, products and services that cater to new businesses. It’s a rough measuring tool, but it’s also fast and free.
You can use Google for rough market research about your new company. Right off the bat, Google the company name you are considering… If you get no results, that’s pretty golden (but still NO guarantee, you must search the USPTO for definitive results!) Google the URL you want. That’s the fastest way to know if it’s available.
