Prepare an effective business plan. Without a working business plan, you will not be able to succeed in this industry. Think about how you will reach the potential students in your region. If possible start a door to door marketing campaign to inform the people in your society. Set clear goals and objectives and write a mission statement. Hire a lawyer who can help you complete the legal paperwork.
