If you started your business in 2018 but had no gross income, you don’t file a schedule C.  You will report your startup expenses next year, on your first tax return with business income.  The startup expenses are either expenses in 2019, or amortized over 15 years, depending on the dollar amount and nature of the expense.  Make sure you save your records.
