In the beginning, most owners start their businesses from their personal savings. The amount of money needed depends on the initial outlay of funds required. It also depends on the number of months of ongoing expenses you’ll have to cover before the revenue from your operations becomes available. Typical startup expenses include items such as office furnishings, equipment needed to operate your business and your initial stock of inventory. Once the business is started, you'll have initial expenses such as employee salaries, rent, utilities, etc.
