Business Startup Checklist

Following is a new business startup checklist assembled by Pacific Business Advisors to assist in developing a new business. Not all items listed apply to every business. There may be items you will want to consider that are not listed.

Written Contracts Required

The Statute of Frauds is a legal doctrine requiring certain types of significant contracts to be in writing and signed to be legally enforceable, preventing fraud and misunderstandings by demanding written proof for complex agreements like those involving real estate, long-term services (over a year), sales of goods over $500 (under the UCC), marriage promises, or guarantees for another's debt. Its primary objective is to provide evidence and caution parties in major transactions, though exceptions (like part performance) can make some oral contracts valid.

 

Below and Above the Line Advertising

Below the line advertising focuses on non-traditional advertising strategies that directly target specific groups, usually at a lower cost and with more personal interaction with the target customers or clients than with other methods. These methods include direct targeted mail, the distribution of promotional products, and attending trade shows. Above the line advertising is directed to large audiences and is therefore more expensive. These ads include newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and other similar media.
