Answers:    Spend a mere $30-40 and buy the book "Small Business for Dummies". It will walk you through the ground rules of starting a business. As you can see, people literally write entire books roughly speaking this topic so it is not something you can learn from a couple of paragraph on addqa.com. And many bylaws & license requirements are specific to your city so you should also join your local Chamber of Commerce who will own many resources and information specific to your situation.
check out what your state requires as far as getting a toll number. You will also need a license from the city you're doing business contained by. Go to City Hall, there's a good unpredictability they will tell you what they inevitability before they can tender you a license. Also, you can register for a federal Tax ID as well, the IRS website walk you through the process. As a small business owner, let me put in the picture you that the easy fragment is setting everything up. that's cake compared to actually running the business.
