Territory Business Information Kit

You may be interested in starting your own business for a variety of reasons. This may include trying to find an alternative to paid employment or a desire to earn more money or become more independent.

Starting and running your own business can be very rewarding however there are a number of issues that are worth considering before starting your own business:

  • Does your business venture or idea meet your interests and needs?
  • Have you though about the impact of running a business may have on your lifestyle and family?
  • Is there a market for your business?
  • Do you have the financial resources to start a business?
  • What skills will you need to run your business?

The Territory Business Information Kit is designed to help you to establish and run a business in the Northern Territory. It provides you with information about issues relevant to all businesses, with a checklist; fact sheets; and details on where to go for help.

Click the link below to begin, consider each topic and decide whether you require additional information. Each time you select Tell me more... additional information relevant to that topic will be displayed and you can choose to add fact sheets to your report for later consideration. A checklist included in your report will help you to address all the issues relevant to your business.

The Business Information Kits are provided by the Northern Territory Government in partnership with AusIndustry. Business Information Kits are available for a number of Northern Territory industries from http://www.nt.gov.au/businessinformationkits.
