Can I start a business in a field I’m not familiar with? (alien.top)

The title sums it up in a nutshell. I have a couple ideas and businesses I want to start (e.g plumbing company, electrical company , IT company ,etc) but I have very little knowledge on all these spheres. I majored in Economics in University so I more or less have a grasp on the fundamentals of running a good business . How I would plan to go about it is just finding professionals in each field and convince them to go on a joint venture with me . Using my business skills and their specialties, I think we can get any business off the ground . Lemme know what you guys think

Your idea of kicking off businesses in stuff like plumbing, electrical work, and IT by teaming up with pros in those areas sounds pretty solid. Your econ degree can definitely help with the business side of things. The plan is to handle the biz management, while your partners deal with the technical bits. Just gotta pick the right folks to work with, sort out who does what, and get the scoop on what's what in each market. If you nail the planning and work well with your partners, this could really take off. Here's a useful article to help you https://www.cuppa.so/post/turning-your-big-idea-into-a-reality

That’s solid advice right there. I’m jotting it down as we speak I’m halfway through the article and I can honestly say that this is a good read . Thanks for the recommendation
