You should be prepared for questions like how much will you be spending on insurance, what is your anticipated utility expence going to be etc etc
I belive you should prepare your business plan and take it with you.
Since you have been in business for 14 years dont think you will have any problem preparing one.

thanks for the information ... I think you should get a details business plan of your business and it will answer all the question they will ask .... most probably questions will be about business? how you will spend? how you will generate business? how you will attract audience ? how you will invest ? how you will make profit? how you will create jobs ? etc

thts all I can think off wait for others to reply

you said you have 14 years of IT experience still you scared and finding it hard to answer a professional business person? very surprising ......

we just put it this way if a person got a full knowledge and understanding of the business he planned to do than Interview will be nothing ...... as far as you know what you gona do and how you going to do it than you will satisfy anyone with your answer and like you mention that you have experience I think you should answer everything easily just bcz of ur experience bcz you have done it all practically.

Hi khandxb,

Do not worry every thing will be ok as long as you are confident about your business.

In Between which category you applied from. Is it from PSW 50 K / 200K

Which country of location you applied from?
