On: Ask HN: Do you sell first or comply with laws/tax first?

[patrakov]

Comply first. Otherwise, you won't have a business bank account where you could direct the money from the first sale.

what to do if business doesnt take off?

Hire an auditor who confirms that (based on the lack of transactions and invoices), then close the company and all accounts.
