Define what the business needs to do
A company structure should follow the way the business intends to operate. Consider the activities you expect to carry out, who your customers will be, where work will happen and whether you need employees, premises or partners.
It also helps to identify the people who will own and manage the business. Their roles and future plans can affect the options worth exploring.
