After you have decided which category to develop your line from then the fun part begins. Here are some simple steps to follow to actually get up and running.
- Name your business - Call your local state office or check online for starting a business in your state and call them for instructions for your state. Each state has different guidelines. After you have come up with a name be sure to check for your URL (web name) that you would like to use to sell your products on line. Use a company like www.godaddy.com to search and purchase your desired name. Park it and do the next step first then come back and finalize your domain purchase once it is available for trademark.
- Next check to make sure that someone has not already trademarked the name you would like here: https://www.uspto.gov/trademark/li>
- Once you are sure that no one has trademarked that name you may want to register it so that you can create your brand with no worries.

I hope this simple tips will help you get going without worry.
