2. Design a complete business plan.
The business plan is the launch pad for your business project: it is essential so that you can see in advance what your real options are, your weaknesses and threats, your strengths and, what interests us most, your opportunities. This tool is a test bench with which you can simulate the operation of your company in all possible situations so that you can anticipate the most appropriate decisions without risk. But it is also one of the keys that can open the door to financing your business. This document will allow you to define everything you need to get your company up and running with guarantees.

Here are some of the things you will have to do, if you decide, for example, to be an individual entrepreneur:
-Presentation of the census declaration and registration in the census of employers, professionals and retainers.
-Registration of the self-employed professional in the Special Regime for Self-Employed Workers (RETA).
-Registration in the Social Security, and assignment of the mutual insurance company that will cover contingencies due to work accidents or illness.
-Affiliation and registration of the company in Social Security (in case you are going to hire someone).
-Formification of employment contracts in the Lanbide offices or in the Navarre Employment Service.
