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:
* Smart Business for Contractors: A Guide to Money and the Law by Jim Kramon
* The E-Myth Contractor: Why Most Contractors' Businesses Don't Work and What to Do About It by Michael E. Gerber
* Contracting in All 50 States: Who to Contact and General Licensing Requirements for Every State by R. L. Bryson
Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

Your most important legal issue will be people writing their names in wet concrete. "Jason luvs Jules" will cost you a bundle. Hence, lay out a lot of money on barrier rope.
