Starting a Green Business? Read This First

Are you ready? Is it time? Those are the kind of questions that those looking to head towards greener pastures ask themselves. You're ready to find a job that fits your passion as a green entrepreneur. Tired of just going through the motions and ready to finally take the plunge. Ask yourself a few more questions before you make the move:

Do Some Preparation:

- If you're going to quit your job and become a green entrepreneur, you should have at least three months of living expenses saved in the bank.

- Make sure that you're set with healthcare. If you're going to go out on your own, you need to calculate that as a part of your budget.

- Pay off all other debt before you quit your job. You don't want any other debt hanging over your head when you're trying to get a business started.

- Write a business plan and outline all of your expenses and how much money you'll need to make in order to keep your head above water.

- Do tons of market research and see if your idea has been done before. What was the outcome?
