Be careful who you tread on on the way up... you're likely to meet them on the way down

Be firm but fair with staff.. you're not their friend.. you're their boss. don't loose sight of that!

Are you running it as a trading activty?

If so, have you decided what type of business vehicle to use (no, I don't mean what car, but whether to operate as a sole trader or a limited company).

Have you got all the proper insurances in place?

Will you be using "staff" and, if so, have you thought about the nature of trhe arrangements you will have iwth such "staff".
