Home Based Business Regulations

Question: Home-based business in Florida laws help!?
I'm looking to start a home-based catering business in the future and am wanting to know the laws, rules and regulations for owning and running a catering business from home. I've been on a few state-run websites but maybe I'm overlooking one! Help!
It's home-based but on the internet. I WON'T have any customers showing up to my home. It's catering;not a restaurant.
Answer: The best routes to take are to research the process of starting a business as well as the industry you're interested in.
I recommend checking out the SBA, Entrepreneur, The Start Up Journal & Nolo. All 4 are great informational resources for the new/small business owner. I posted links for you in the source box.
Associations may be a good avenue to explore. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you'll inevitably have as well as many you haven't anticipated yet. See the source box for some relevant links.
Research, research, research – this cannot be stressed enough. Read as much as you can about the industry. Here are some book titles that are relevant:
