STEP 1: Plan your business
A clear plan is essential for success as an entrepreneur. It will help you
map out the specifics of your business and discover some unknowns. A
few important topics to consider are:
● What will you name your business?
● What are the startup and ongoing costs?
● Who is your target market?
● How much can you charge customers?
Luckily we have done a lot of this research for you.
What will you name your business?
Choosing the right name is important and challenging. If you don’t already
have a name in mind, visit our How to Name a Business guide or get help
brainstorming a name with our Laundry and Dry Cleaning Business Name

business name other than your own name. Visit our DBA guide to learn

business name by checking:

● Social media platforms
● Web domain availability.
