          <Paragraph big>
            Before you start your business, there are a few key areas you need
            to focus on. You will need to establish whether there’s a demand for
            your bar or club business services, look at potential benefits and
            pitfalls, understand how your business finances might look and
            ensure everything is in order.

          <Paragraph big>
            In short, you need a business plan — here’s how to think about your
            business idea.

          <Paragraph big>
            Before you launch your bar or club business, you need to understand
            if there’s a demand for what you’re selling. That means carrying out
            market research and “validating” your products and services. Here’s
            how to go about it:

              These types of businesses rely almost completely on locality and
              location, so understanding the residential and tourism markets in
              your region is critical.

            <Paragraph bottomPadding={0} bottomMargin={0}>
              Having competitors is a good thing as it shows there’s a market.
              Additionally, in the bar and club scene there’s generally plenty
              of room for a niche establishment that provides a unique reason
              for customers to drink there.

              These are the areas that will set you apart from competitors and
              encourage customers to come to you. This will mainly be driven by
              the type of bar or club you choose to run.
