Hi Christian,Certainly the first step in any planning process includes two things: A business plan and a financial plan.
The business plan help you (the primary consumer of the plan) sort through your ideas about the business and gets everything down on "paper". This way all of your thoughts and visions for your business are layed out in a logical way.
The financial plan help you analize if the business is financially viable. A lot of entrepreneurs who have great ideas jump head first in to the implementation phase, without any planning, and then we try to make a correction after a mistake happens - Ready, Fire, Aim!
The business and financial plans together allow you to see a clear picture of where you'd like to go with your business and if it's financially feasible.
From there you can find local banks, friends & family and/or local development corporations to help fund your venture. Keep in mind though, other than friends & family, most of the other funding sources will require the entrepreneur to also put some money into the business.
I hope your venture works out well and good luck. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need support.
