The path
What do I need to start a business online?
Seven stamps, one person. Stamp each line. That is the order we do it in, and by the last one you have a business people can find and pay.

Week 1 · Done for you
The name
We check it is free: at Companies House, as a web address, on Instagram and TikTok, and against registered trade marks.

Week 1 · You, with our help
The company
You set up your limited company yourself through Tide, and we help you with each step. Tide charges £14.99 for the registration and gives you a business bank account with it. We never form the company or file anything for you.
If a sole trader suits you better, we explain the difference plainly. Your accountant has the final word on tax.

Weeks 6 to 18 · Done for you
Your first customers
Your first ads set up and run for you (the ad budget itself is separate, paid by you straight to Google or Meta), and three months of Grow, then Care to the end of month six (Grow is local search work, a new page each month, and honest review requests).
We don't give tax or legal advice. For that we will point you to someone who does.
