First off what I would do is do a community center and find out the diffrences between not for profilt and non profit because on one you are allowed to make money but on the other you are not i cannot remember the diffrence however if you do it that way you are looking at a liot of goverment assistance and tax breaks

tell them to just give you the money and then go to the bar and spent it if you go to a titty bar the alcohol is usually really cheep and you get to see boobs lol or just have a really big keg party.  Hire some strippers and get some booze lol or just get booze and throw a kickass party.

What type of business?

Well, - first would be to clean up your English.. I think you might want to "propose" a business idea.. You know, good ideas are great - - we all have many.. however, putting them into practice is another thing - thus the expression 1% inspiration 99% perspiration.. Best advice is do some paperwork and investigation first - How much are drinks like yours selling for? How much will you have to pay in rent and for employees? How many drinks a day will you have to sell just to equal your expenses? Add at least another 15% for miscelaaneous expenses that you never considered. Do the math - if it works out really really well, then you might want to show your math to a business person - rather than just another idea.. ok?

You should do a video scavenger hunt or a picture scavenger hunt! Borrow a few video/picture camera and try to find local things about the bars that is unique to them along with those youve mentioned above. Some cool things would be like bring back a beer cap per person per bar. Another good one is how many free drinks you can get per bar.

Yes to all those questions.\nYou can start by working in a bar and taking careful notes about what is happening there.\nYou should also enrol in a Bar Course and a Small Business Course.\nRunning a bar is a very difficult and challenging business...and there is much more to it than buying some wine and opening up shop...The legal part needs to be learnt too...and the accounting and Taxation laws.\nNo business is easy for the owner...believe me

Now do you mean a bar called O2 or Oxygen such as:\nhttp://www.studentguru.co.uk/livingguide/drinking/oxygen\n\nOr do you mean a bar when you can go get shots of oxygen (the gas) to inhale and feel good.. (apparently..)\n\nhttp://www.baro2.com/ - These guys rent the equipment but do not look like they run any bars. Maybe you can set up your own! Business opportunity!!!

Maybe?  Check out the competition.  Is it a need in the community?  Would people be willing to pay for it?  Can you offer something other businesses don't?\n\nTest drive the concept by throwing a staff party and seeing how it works?

I agree with all of the above, but to make a compromise, serve one specialty drink, like a tropical twist martini... or whatever... just to have something to toast with, or serve champagne and beer.... if YOU do most of your socializing over alcohol, your friends will expect that from you. If you do not drink, it prob. wont be expected.

It depends on what state you are in. Go to the Secretary of State website or your official state website -- they often have information on how to start a business and the permits and licenses required. Look up the department that issues permits and licenses and contact them.\n\nMost likely you will need:\n\n- zoning approval (for your signs, etc.)\n- liquors license\n- business name registration\n- fire department permit\n- building and contractors permit\n- public health operating license (as you will serve liquor)\n- sellers permit

Details about what kind of business it is would be helpful.  As a generality right now though, it would be good to get the word out by way of word of mouth and flyers.  Explain why your business is worth visiting (i.e. good food, helpful to the community, etc.)

If you have no, or little experience then dont do it.. It sounds fun and the idea feels good but in reality its very hard work for very little pay. You are never off duty and the long hours take thier toll. If you are really serious then become full time bar staff then assistant managers and then house managers. This will take you a few years but it will not be your money or risk. If you dont like it or get on then you can leave, if you buy a pub or lease one then you are stuck with it if it dosent work out as planned. This can cause financial ruin, the big lease companies really dont care how well you are doing, they only want the rent and beer sales.. The training courses offered are of little or no use to the real world of running a pub. What could you learn in a week or two about running both a pub AND a business. It takes years to learn both and even then you make mistakes.

Is there any such thing as a decent bar?

1.- Radio advertising...it is the best way to get to your primary target\n2.- Flyers to be handed out by good looking females-males...very hard to resist...\n3.- Ask for Partnership with a liquor/beer brand: they usually have separate budgets for proyects such as yours...let the sponsor your special nights.\n4.- An online contest on your website advertised on the radio will help you too...\nI could go on, and on, and on...
