Budgeting for profit
How much will operating your business cost? What will your overheads be? Such as rent, electricity, advertising, this includes any fixed costs associated with running your business. Have you set out an estimated break even point, and a commitment period to ensure this venture gets of the ground? These are all areas you really need to look at before even spending one dollar on your new venture.
Competitive analysis
Have a look at your market, and find out what you can bring that the competitors cannot. A competitive advantage is not always lower costs, but perhaps it is quality. Personalized service, or some other added value. You need to spend a lot of time figuring out what you will have over your competition and stick to it. This will make your company stand out over time.
Growth plans
Think about the future of your company, how do you plan to grow? Many businesses start from the garage and then work their way into a professional environment. It may not happen over night, but years down the track you may find yourself in hardship if you have not considered how and where you will grow.

All the above questions and advice can only be related to one important document. A Business plan. You need to spend a lot of time working on your business plan just to get your business ready for success.
