Hey I’m starting on a new business for myself. I’m not sure I want to restrict myself to just ONE thing. It’s gonna plunge into a business which has a bright prospect. I am just collecting information from market and friends so that I can decide and start off ASAP.
I’m not yet even legal age to drink yet so I’m really just trying to research a lot of stuff on my own right now. Already have a website up to incorporate e-commerce into it. Already have a great location but having a hard time finding a good distributor for computer parts.

Anyone who owns a business or even knowledge of business running successfully may advice for a novice like me?

Well, it sounds as if he's interested in selling computer parts. And yeah... I think it will be difficult to find a distributor for those. How about affiliate programs? Also... ask yourself "Why would people buy these from me when they can just drive to the trusted-name computer store?"

If you have never run a small business before, consider researching how to write a business plan. Also, the government has resources for potential and current small business owners - consider contacting your local SBDC.

Hi jackson._us5
This is from an oldie with grandkids older than you. It is great to see young ones with big ambitions. Remember that there a lot of millionaires and billionairs out there that are very young.
All the best to you.

I'm happy to see a young person that's interested in starting a business. I am 26 and I can remember what I was doing at 20. It's very hard to find a supplier but I suggest you start with a wholesale distributor manual. Also, Liquidation.com - Business Surplus Liquidation Excess Inventory Closeouts Computer Liquidations Surplus Liquidation Auction Wholesale Products has alot of computer parts if you have the money. I wish you success in business and life.

Keep in mind that if you want a physical location / retail store, rather than just a home business, there's a lot of financial outlay. Consider your personal credit score, and consider that you will probably still need your full time income for awhile. Will it work?
