Getting Started Checklist
Everything you need to do to go from "I have an idea" to "I have a business" — step by step, in plain English.
1.Figure out what you're selling
Product or service? Who's buying it? You don't need a full business plan — just be able to explain it in one sentence.
2.Pick a business name
Search the NB Business Name Registry to make sure it's not taken. Keep it simple and easy to spell.
Search NB business names →3.Decide: sole proprietorship or corporation?
Most young founders start as a sole proprietorship — it's simpler and cheaper. You can incorporate later if you grow. Sole prop costs ~$60 to register in NB.
4.Register your business
If you're using any name other than your legal name, you need to register it with Service New Brunswick. Takes about 15 minutes online.
Register a business name →5.Figure out HST
If you make less than $30,000/year in revenue, you don't need to register for HST. Once you cross that threshold, you'll need a GST/HST number from the CRA.
CRA HST registration →6.Open a business bank account
Keep your business money separate from personal. Most banks offer free or low-cost business accounts. You'll need your business registration to open one.
7.Set up a way to get paid
Square (free POS), Stripe (online payments), or e-transfer. Pick whatever fits how your customers want to pay.
8.Get a website
That's where we come in. Apply for a free website from KV Launch and we'll build you something professional.
9.Tell people about it
Set up an Instagram, tell your friends, post in local Facebook groups. You don't need a marketing budget — you need to start talking about it.
10.Keep track of your money
Use Wave (free) or a simple spreadsheet. Track what comes in and what goes out. You'll thank yourself at tax time.

About KV Launch
We started KV Launch because we know what it's like to have a business idea and no idea where to begin. No connections, no budget, no clue if it's even possible.
Turns out — it is. And it's a lot easier when someone shows you the ropes.
We build free websites for young entrepreneurs in Quispamsis and Rothesay. That's our thing. We also put together a bunch of free resources — templates, courses, tools, funding links — so you can figure out the rest on your own terms.
You don't need to have it all figured out. You just need to start.
One Clear Mission
Give young founders in KV a professional online presence — no cost, no strings.
