Think about your business in terms of start up costs.
Do you have capital? Where is it coming from?
Do you have investors? Are you applying for grants?
Put together a financial budget for your start up. Keep in mind the following:

What is your start up revenue and at the end of the first year, will you break even, have a profit or a loss?
