|

7. Compile your business financials
|
||||
If you're just starting out, your business may not yet have financial data or comprehensive reporting. You will still need to prepare a budget and a financial plan.
|
||||
We’ve checked out other platforms—Twitch, YouTube, Discord communities, and more.
|
||||
SickGaming stands out by focusing on collaboration, support, and real growth (not just numbers).

8. Describe your organization and management
