You dont. Not just yet anyway.
Here's how i think you should go about it.
Rent a reseller account from another company, spend as much time as possible getting to know the ins and outs of the entire system, spend hours reading manuals and tutorials on the system and monitor web hosting forums, see how other people are operating.
Then, you apply for a job at another company, get used to answering sales/support tickets. do this for a few months until you have had just about every question you can.
Use the reseller you rented to start hosting some of your own clients, build a name for your company. Then rent a VPS. So the same as you did with the reseller, learn the ins and outs of the system.
Break your VPS, destroy it as much as you can, then practice fixing it. Repeat several times.
Once you know what you are doing with the VPS, move your clients over to the VPS.
From there, you can do pretty much whatever you want. you have the skills and the experience required, you should have a fair few clients and a bit of a reputation.
Just keep building your company 
Hope this helps |
