Amazon.com Review Small businesses--those with fewer than 100 employees--account for over 97 percent of all businesses in the U.S. today. If your idea of the American Dream is to join this booming sector with a business of your own, you'll need at least one easy-to-use but comprehensive resource that addresses the inevitable questions in a simplified yet satisfactory manner. The second edition of The Entrepreneur Magazine Small Business Advisor, shaped by the experienced editorial staff of this 20-year-old periodical for aspiring corporate magnates, is just such a reference. Organized logically into sections on "Starting," "Managing," and "Growing Your Business," it covers everything from evaluating your ideas and personal plans to location, licensing, financing, record-keeping, credit management, marketing, sales, expansion, and even selling your business. It doesn't have all the answers, of course, but in almost 650 pages, it does offer quite a bit of help. --Howard Rothman | ||

You cannot afford to be without this book. A great starter Unless you have a business IQ of 160 +, you really should browse thru this one. It's nice to have on the table when you are comtemplating minding your own business. There is a lot to be said for payroll workers. When they go home they leave work at work. When you run your own business, it's.....well, you guessed it, it stays with you 24/7/365! This book gives you a broad base of insight and directions to look in and ways to think and talk smarter business. This book helps newbies survive their business model. It helps me. I paid $6.00 on the Amazon used book section. Best $6 I have spent in a long while. Enjoy! | ||
A Superior, Informative Small Business Guide I have worked in small business development for over 18 years, and for all the knowledge one can attain in that period of time there is always a question that requires research. In addition to consulting my business planning clients, I also write "small business expert" columns on the Internet. In neither case can you afford to make a mistake advising a client or a reader. Every question requiring research on fact and procedure finds me pulling this book off the shelf before any other. Always, I find my answer in this book in a manner that allows me to respond. Furthermore, most small business clients and readers are not thoroughly knowledged in the terminology of finance and marketing. I always strive to explain matters with the use of lay terminology that facilitates their learning process. The Small Business Advisor succeeds in helping me to achieve that goal. This book should be on the shelf of every small business assistance agency and small business consulting firm. The monetary investment is equal to or greater than any other small business assistance book I can find on the market today. | ||
