Profitable business from start to finish

Once the business plan is drawn up and the company is set up, you get into action. In the beginning you need to take insurances, organise bookkeeping and invoicing as well as take your planned marketing actions and solicitation of customers into practice. You will find tips on these on our website and of course in the Guide to Entrepreneurship.

In the Guide, we have also gathered an information package regarding the enterprise’s income taxation as well as value-added taxation. Familiarise yourself carefully even with these.
