Answer 1

Do you mean a record label? Or a recording studio? Here's information on both...

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

I recommend checking out the SBA, Entrepreneur, The Start Up Journal & Nolo. All 4 are great informational resources for the new/small business owner. I posted links for you in the source box.

Associations may be a good avenue to explore. 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:

* Start and Run Your Own Record Label, Revised and Expanded Edition by Daylle Deanna Schwartz
* Label Launch: A Guide to Independent Record Recording, Promotion, and Distribution by Veronika Kalmar
* Music Business Made Simple: Start An Independent Record Label by J.S. RUDSENSKE
* The Savvy Studio Owner: A Complete Guide to Setting Up and Running Your Own Recording Studio by John Shirley, Richard Strasser
* Make Money with Your Studio: Setting Up and Operating a Successful Recording Studio by Tom Volinchak
* The Studio Business Book, Third Edition by Mitch Gallagher
* How to Build A Small Budget Recording Studio From Scratch: With 12 Tested Designs (TAB Mastering Electronics Series) by Michael Shea

I also posted links to some free articles in the source box.

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

Answer 2

There are two organizations that can help you with the business start up. They are: SBA (Small Business Administration; and SCORE (Service Corps of Retired Executives) that offer FREE assistance to those who are serious about starting a business. These people donate their time. The key word is serious. Don't wait for your ship to come in ... Swim out to meet it. Check for these organization's websites below:
