Starting a business
Don't waste money on tools you don't need.
Get the basics right first. The website, the booking and getting found all come afterwards. Do them in that order and you are less likely to pay for the same thing twice.

A sensible starting order
Start with four
simple decisions.
Most people start spending at step three. These four questions are the order that stops you paying for something before you know whether you need it.
Make the offer clear
Can a stranger understand what you sell?
Say who you help, what goes wrong for them, what you do about it, and what you charge.
Own the essentials
Can customers trust the business?
Secure the right domain, professional email and accurate business information.
Make contact easy
Can customers take the next step?
Build the useful website first. Add online booking only when the business needs it — the build costs the same whether you add it now or later.
Build visibility
Can customers find you wherever they search?
Being found is a job that starts after the website exists, not before. It is worth paying for once you have somewhere to send people.
