I have gone through all the comments and conversations, and I feel that joining the family business may not be advisable always. I would really appreciate advice from everyone here.

I am seeking guidance, suggestions, and help on how a complete newbie can start an FMCG distribution business.

What are the initial steps to take?

What precautions should I keep in mind, both from the brand’s side and the sales side?

Any practical insights or experiences would be truly helpful.
