I tried starting a business. 18 months later I realized it was going nowhere. (I also wasn't making any money, and continuing was about to get financially irresponsible.) In hindsight, I was just working on my side project for 18 months, unpaid. What I did was list the business on my resume just like any other job. I put myself as "co-founder" instead of putting in a fancy title like "CTO." When questioned about details of the business, or why I was looking for a job, I just point that I'm a horrible businessperson and better off working for someone else. If pressed further, I point out that no job is perfect, and the ups and downs of a normal job are preferable to getting my way all the time but not getting paid. You'll be fine!
