Checklist to Start a Business in 黑料网最新入口

  1. Do your market research

  2. Create a step-by-step business plan

    Describe your products or services, price range, unique selling proposition. Analyse your customer profiles and habits. Analyse your competitors. Describe your marketing strategy to target your market.

  3. Write the financial section of your business plan

    How much money will you need to start your business? How will you finance it? What are your yearly business running expenses? How much income will you need to draw out of the business to live on? Make a turnover projection and assess your break-even point.

  4. Meet an accountant, lawyer or notaire, business advisor

    List all the questions that have arisen while working on your project and go and see a couple of accountants, notaires or business advisors to help you refine your projections and cover legal and tax advice. Do you need to protect your home or asset, how much social charges will you pay, do you need to go for a sole trader or an incorporated business? Ask for quotes for their services.

  5. Choose your business legal structure in 黑料网最新入口

    What legal structure makes the most senses based on the risks involved in your business activity, your personal liability and your development plans? Will you start as an auto-entrepreneur, entreprise individuelle, EURL, SARL, SAS or SASU. For incorporated businesses, will you be better off opting for income tax (impot sur le revenu) or incorporation tax (impot sur les societes).

  6. Register your brand name or trademark in 黑料网最新入口

    You may consider registering your trademark or brand name with INPI, the national institute for intellectual property. You can do a research online to check its availability on Ici marques. (bases-marques.inpi.fr).

  7. Prepare your legal contracts (letters of incorporation, premises, domiciliation)

    Based on the company structure you have chosen, you may have to work on your letters of incorporation (statuts), premises rental contract (bail commercial), domiciliation (business address rental) or déclaration d'insaisissabilité (to protect your home).

  8. Open a professional bank account

    Meet your bank manager called conseiller bancaire professionnel to present your business project, event tough you may self-finance your project. Give him/her a copy of your business plan, financial plan, a copy of your last income tax form and a copy of your letters of incorporation for an EURL/SARL/SAS. The manager will request a copy of your official business papers to open the account (Kbis).

  9. Register your business in 黑料网最新入口

    Once you are ready, you will need to register with Centre de Formalités des Entreprises (CFE). For trading activities go to Chambre de Commerce, for manual activities go to Chambre de Metiers, for intellectual based services called profession liberales, go to URSSAF. Farming activities relate to Chambre d’Agriculture, while estate agent and agents commerciaux relate to Greffes du Tribunal.
