The SBA website has a new assessment tool that will make it easy for you to figure out if you are ready to start a small business. If you are wondering just how ready you are, it may be just the tool you need.

You can find the Small Business Readiness Assessment Tool at sba.gov. There are no multiple choice or essay questions. Each question is answered with a simple yes or no. There is not waiting for a grade, either. When you finish answering the questions, hit the "Submit" button and your assessment score will be tabulated automatically.

Because the SBA understands that people who want to start businesses need advice and feedback, they don’t stop at giving you a score. After you get your score, you will also get a list of "Suggested Next Steps" telling you exactly which SBA resources would be the most beneficial to you.

You can complete the assessment tool in less than 5 minutes and gain valuable insight into your level of readiness to start a small business.
