how to get a financer for opening a book store. Wt r the steps?

Answer 1

The best routes to take are to research the process of starting a business as well as the industry you're interested in.

To get started, I suggest contacting the Small Business Administration (SBA). Entrepreneur also offers a great site dedicated to money & finance – see below for both.

Associations may be a good avenue to explore as well. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you'll inevitably have as well as many you haven't anticipated yet. See the source box for some relevant links.

Research, research, research – this cannot be stressed enough. Read as much as you can about the industry. Here are some book titles that are relevant:

* FabJob Guide to Become a Bookstore Owner (FabJob Guides) by Grace Jasmine
* How To Start & Manage A Bookstore Business: A Practical Way To Start Your Own Business
by Jerre G. Lewis, Leslie D. Renn
* Retail Business Kit for Dummies by Rick Segel
* Retail Success! by George Whalin

There are plenty of free informational resources out there. Check the source box for links to articles.

Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

EDIT: I tried to email you back but wasn't able. You mentioned in your email that you were in India -- I found some links specific to doing business in India -- check below. Hope that helps!
