What do I do first when starting a Cardiff business?

If you are starting a business in Cardiff you first will need to make your budget and business plan. These items are an essential part of any company and they will allow you to find out what you need to do next. The business plan can serve as a guide to the steps you need to take to meet your goals, and the budget will allow you to find out if you lack funding for any given thing. Then you can see if you can use one of the loans or grants for new business out there based on their eligibility requirements and intended uses.
