Purveyors of conventional wisdom would have you believe that the very first thing you ought to do when setting up a new business is to create a business plan. It doesn't matter whether you are selling odds and ends on eBay from your living room or something larger and more complex, Business plans are excellent and necessary. Far too few of us self-employed and freelance people use them. They force us to spell out our objectives. We have to assign numbers to our expectations and assign a time-line to our goals. They become our roadmap and keep us on track. But I suggest that you can't make a business plan that is worth anything until you've done your homework.

The US Bureau of Labor Statistics and other such sources, for example, publish a great deal of demographic information. Some of it is very useful. But it is also likely that as a...more
