Getting started usually involves considerable red tape that can delay a business opening. This drains precious capital budgeted by a startup expecting to commence earning revenue. Local government can help rather than hinder startups. For example, in Brevard County, Florida, there is a Zoning Portal to learn where to locate a business in the county and a Commercial Portal, which is a tool to calculate the permits and licenses needed to open or expand a business. When starting a business, relocating, or expanding, check local resources for help and information. #IdeaoftheDay
