Has anyones started their own business against their spouses advice or approval?

I would like to be a restaurant/bar owner and/or publish my own cookbook. How should I go about getting this started without having any credit? Would I need to get sponsors or start out of my home? Any suggestions? My spouse wont help.Has anyones started their own business against their spouses advice or approval?
Depends on where you live or how much research you are willing to do. By the way, how much research have you done? This could take up to a year. There are places that give grants/business loans to females. You just have to find them. You have to give them a detailed business plan, such as how much your/their investment is gong to be, the location you choose, taxes, permits, license cost. You are going to have to make sure you can get a liquor license. Do you know anything about running a bar? You have to factor in your loss/gain. It may be a little tricky getting approved for bar/restaurant just for the loss these places take---but that goes with employees, friends wanting free stuff and plus you don't make money your first year. It's do-able, but it takes work. If you don't have a support system that can also be hard. Don't let negativity from anyone keep you from your dreams.





If that is too much to tackle at the moment or you want something to do while you are getting all of this together-then do what Sandra Deen did. She was the ';Bag Lady';. She started sack lunches out of her home and took them places. Or you could make cakes and take them to restaurants or mom and pop places and have them sale them. Make up a few, slice them up, package them, put a business card on them and go to an office strip or a courthouse and give your sliced pieces of cake away-you are bound to get some call backs. Christmas season, people don't have time to bake...BINGO! Make precooked dinners for people who don't have time to cook. There are many ways to do it-you just got to think of plans and put them into action. Advertise when you get something going. Anything you do, you will have to start small.





Good luck to you!!!
