ideas-smallDo you have an idea for a business, but aren’t sure if it would really make it? Here’s 3 ways to test it out for free:

1. Send a survey to everyone you know. Zoomerang has a free survey creation tool that you can put together in minutes. Just ask the questions like you would if you were talking to your friends…and then send it to all your friends and relatives. Everyone loves to be asked their opinion.

2. Ask a SCORE representative. It still surprises me how many people don’t realize one of the best free business tools is only an email away. Receive counsel and opinion from experts in your idea’s field.  www.Score.org

3.Google’s Keyword Tool is an excellent way to determine the popularity of your idea. Not sure how to do this? Entrepreneur.com has a great article on testing business ideas with Google’s keyword tool-

Now, once you know your idea is a good one, what do you do next? Most would say write your business plan. You can find all the info you need on writing a business plan including a free online workshop at http://www.sba.gov/smallbusinessplanner/plan/writeabusinessplan/index.html

Or-you could ask your SCORE representative….

Just do it.
