Summary: A great Appetizer
Comment: This book is a great starter resource for anyone who seeks to start a retail business. I own two businesses, one service the other retail, and it really doesn't do well to cater to service start-ups. The book does have some valuable resources and to me it encompasses a bunch of already provided knowledge and puts it in one place. I think for anyone in a service industry interested in starting and creating a business you should read The Magic Touch: How to make $100,000 per year as a massage Therapist by Meagan R. Holub. Don't let the title fool you! This book is a blueprinted action plan that helps guide service professionals to a successful career, making 100k/yr. The great thing about Meagan's book is the writing style. It's conversational, honest and passionate! A must have for building service businesses.

Summary: for newbies to the business world - Buy the Book
Comment: I had absolutely no knowledge of business or how businesses work but after purchasing this book i can say it really opened my eyes as to what is involved in starting and running a business. I feel this book is a crash course that covers everything in business and will also be used as a reference when needed and where to find even more info.

This book was exactly what i needed for a manufacturing start-up and i now have a 40 point to do list to get things of the ground.

AND even got a bonus out of this read. The financial chapter was the best part of it all. i buy stocks and options and this solidified my understanding of financial statements that are mandatory when investing in companies in the stock market.

I highly recommend this book.
