Top tips for starting your own business in London, Edinburgh and/or Belfast

Bravery: setting up your own business requires no small amount of courage. With as many as one out of every three UK business failing within the first year, going it alone is never easy. It can put strain on your personal life and, even worse, have a damaging, long-lasting effect on your financial health. With that in mind, it pays to listen to your common sense; research any investments thoroughly and make sure you have all the facts before you commit all your worldly resources to your new venture.

Capital: embarking on a new business venture without the necessary amount of cash is tantamount to tackling Mount Everest in a pair of shorts and sandals with both arms tied behind your back; in short, hard, if not downright impossible. When securing capital, look into taking out a loan or grant, many of which are available to start-ups and small businesses. UK Government, regional and local grants are available for certain industries. It is worth noting, however, that the process can be arduous, in some cases taking a lengthy amount of time to complete.

Dedication: look at what skills and experience you can draw on and take the time to consider how they can benefit your business. Knowing what is required in the day-to-day running of a business is half the battle - a business may look like simplicity itself to run from an outsider's perspective, but the reality is often very different. If the business you plan to start-up falls outside your usual sphere of expertise, ensure you take pains to research it thoroughly. It may even be worth considering work experience in the sector as way of gauging its suitability.

Serendipity: it goes without saying, but a little bit of luck can go a long way. Luck isn't something you can control, but you can make your own by ensuring you are prepared to make the most out of every opportunity that crosses your path.
