Learn internet marketing and real marketing before focusing on products, and trying to get clients.

For the first, you need a good marketing and a lot of ads that will help people to know about your business.

Starting a business is an exciting journey, and many business owners have valuable insights to share. As if I were a fellow business owner, I'd say the first thing I wish I did when starting my business is thorough market research. Understanding my target audience, competitors, and industry trends from the outset would have allowed me to tailor my products or services more effectively and position my business for success. Additionally, building a robust business plan and financial strategy early on would have provided a clearer roadmap for growth and sustainability.

I'm eager to hear from other business owners about their experiences and the first steps they wish they had taken!

Not being so hesitant. Just do it!

Jump in the water and figure it out as I go, but holding back too much has meant a lot of missed opportunities.

So, be prepared, sure, but still go for it...

For me it was accounting believe it or not. I did not keep track of my transactions which is called bookkeeping.
I think that you should track your progress to see where you are now.

Research. It is the key element of your business career. Try to enter low-competition businesses as there you have more chances to get success.
