As you all know, many people who are attempting to start-up really have no idea where to begin, how much does it cost to rent a space, get a server, or to manufacture…. What legal stuffs do we have to settle? Is there any resources that answers nearly all the questions that budding entrepreneurs have in mind?
I’m so impressed that US has this website (www.score.org) with so many helpful and experienced ppl there to help budding entrepreneurs. Wonder is there any of such organisations in Singapore?

I am a member of SCORE. This is a national nonprofit under the US SBA. SCORE stands for Service Corps Of Retired Executives, and the volunteers are usually retired senior executives who provide free and no-obligation advice, counseling and mentorship to aspiring entrepreneurs.
Advice given covers topics like incorproation, licensing, taxes, insurance, capital startup, cash-flow projections, break-even analysis, marketing, inventory, venture capital, and many others.
Check out the SCORE website http://www.score.org. You can contact your local SCORE chapter and arrange for a free counselling session. The local chapter will also have lots of material for reading on how to start and grow a business.
Good luck.
