Dreaming about starting your own business? Got a brilliant idea and you just know it could work. Well, you’re not alone. Many Canadians like you have their own business dreams, so turn your dream into reality. It’s time to get started.
This video is about the four steps you need to set up a formal legal business in Canada. Here’s a simple example; let’s say you have a dream to start your own business doing what you love; designing fun play rooms for kids, and let’s say you want to keep it simple for now; no employees, no fancy office, just you meeting with clients at a kitchen table. Sounds pretty simple but, what do you need to go from a dream to a solid business plan to official business? A good business plan is critical, a realistic look at your market, your customers and your goals, current and future. It should map out what success means for your business. From there, details of the next steps are different in each province or territory, so you need to find out how it works where you want to operate your business, but a typical new business starts with this four steps:
The most basic first step for every new business in Canada is to choose a legal ownership structure and, for example, you may have trouble choosing between sole proprietorship, really being the business yourself and incorporation, setting up a separate legal entity. This decision is very important, so visit Canada business.GC.ca for useful information that help you decide.
Step 2 is to decide on a name. What are you gonna call your business? You could choose to work under your own full name, and if you’re a sole proprietor you may be able to do that with no business license, but if you want to use a unique business name, you’ll need to apply for a business license.
Step 3 involves getting a business license; the document that allows your business to operate in a specific province, territory or city.
Step 4 is registering your business, which is different from getting a business license. Registration is about getting a business number to communicate with government and about setting up your taxes.
So those are the basics. Four steps that will get your business started: decide on your legal structure and business name, then look into business licensing and registration, and there you have it. You’re on your way. Need more information?
