It will be tough running your own business, but if you stick through it, it can be extremely rewarding. If you really do want to be an entrepreneur and buy a business, then I suggest searching the Internet to what is available in your area. There are sites, like <A HREF="http://www.biztrader.com" REL="nofollow">BizTrader.com</A>, which are online global marketplaces where you can buy and sell businesses. They can also provide you with additional resources like finding a lender, broker, etc. <BR/>I also suggest checking out current books and magazines for help and advice. Local small business groups can also be very helpful, and it doesn't hurt to network. <BR/>Good luck!Victoria Cullenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12446963050954692075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159661074526940118.post-78005799211871843512008-09-30T21:57:00.000+01:002008-09-30T21:57:00.000+01:00Interesting post. I want to run a business soon, so I'll keep this post in mind. Becoming, what I hope, an entrepreneur is somewhat new to me, so I can use all the help and advice I can get! I know it'll be tough. Lately I've been thinking about the idea of buying a business instead of starting from scratch. I'm not sure what I should go for. Franchise? Home-based? I don't know. Do you have any suggestions or advice? Thanks!Mel Eldridgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06629358535825994554noreply@blogger.com
