Thinking about starting a business?
We're planning a simple, decision-focused tool — true to the HansonsBudget promise: know your next best move. Not a full business-planning platform; just enough to answer “is this worth testing, and if it's already working, what do I do with the money?”
Starting from scratch
Have an idea but haven't launched? Estimate startup costs, monthly overhead, pricing, break-even, first-year cash needs, and a tax reserve — so you can test small before quitting a job or taking on debt.
Already making money
Side hustle already earning? See revenue, gross margin, monthly profit, owner pay, tax reserve, and runway — and what it could look like at $5k, $10k, or $25k/month.
This is educational and not legal, tax, or financial advice. Entity choice (LLC, S-corp, etc.) and tax questions should be reviewed with a CPA or attorney.
