Hello, I have business idea, but don’t know from where to start. I want to start a business(startup) but I don’t have funds. But I am sure that I have ‘standout’ business idea, please guide me

Ans: Nothing come easy, Anon ji. You must learn how to fish (how to become an entrepreneur) than be fed fish (get readymade business ideas). What works for one may not work for another. If you have money and want to work on tried and tested models, you could consider becoming a franchisee. Since you don't have money, nor do I have any idea of your experience or expertise, you would have to do some research and figure out what interests you AND is also a great opportunity. Work in that field first and gain experience and connections.
