Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Book, but..
Although it doesn't say it in the title, this book is obviously geared towards women and minorities.
In each chapter there are several "hints", or "tips" contained in text boxes to help get your business running smoothly. However, in about 90% of these the author refers to associations, web sites, grants, loans, mentorships or business clubs that cater exclusively to women or minorities. Whats with this?

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - good book, helped alot
i was planning to start my own business, and this guide helped me alot understanding many things, specially since i almost have no idea about the whole business setup requirements.
this guide is very useful specially for US business startups.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - This Guide is an Excellent resource for one starting a new business
This Guide is an Excellent resource for one starting a new business. It renders some very meaningful and behind the scenes content that most books gloss over or don't even mention. A great buy and handy tool to have on your desk even after starting a business.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent reference for all small business owners
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is starting or who has a small business. There is a ton of good information and great references given throughout the entire book. I am very impressed with the amount of good information in such a small, compact book.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great resource guide, filled with useful information.
I just got the book and cannot put it down. Ms. Turner makes a potentially dry subject come to life. I particularly like the sidebar information, good examples to support the overall message.
