Starting up a jewellery business

Starting up a jewellery business was very hard work. Anyone starting a business needs all the help they can get. I would like to recommend a few websites that I found invaluable and I hope you find them useful too.

Shell LiveWire helps 16-30 year olds to start and develop their own business. I registered with them and got a business toolkit containing CD Roms and information relating to my trade. My favourite part of the website though is the forum. I learn so much by reading other people’s questions and posting my own.

Business Link is a UK government service providing information and advice to new and small businesses. I could not have set up my internet boutique without them as they cover all legal and practical aspects of e-commerce.

EnterpriseQuest is fab! You can subscribe, free of charge, to receive their weekly bulletin to keep up to date with emerging trends and new legal requirements. It provides witty and useful information.

Lastly, but not least, my favourite business related website which I keep visiting again and again. Home jewelry business success tips is a business resource for jewellery artists and its fantastic. You can subscribe to the newsletter to receive the latest articles and news. I highly recommend it!

Good luck with your venture!!
