PRACTICAL GUIDE

Starting a business: your first toolkit

Start with requirements, not subscriptions.

1. Validate the business

Describe your customer, offer and delivery process. Software does not validate demand: start with customer conversations and a simple first process.

2. Build a foundation

Identify the minimum: professional email, shared documents, protected access and enquiry tracking. Check what you already own before adding subscriptions.

3. Check local requirements

4. Test before committing

Complete a real task using your chosen tool. Check data export, limits, renewal and additional fees. Then decide whether to keep it.
