    4 out of 5 stars Easy to use   July 25, 2009

    Step-by-step instructions for starting a small business. Does NOT include the usual 'personal' advice, just practical instructions with many forms and examples.


    4 out of 5 stars Very Good Guide   April 11, 2009

    This is also a very good book on small business start-up. One of the best things is the tone of the book -- it lays everything out straightforwardly and simply, making you believe that you really CAN do what you want to do.
    From taxes to finances to planning entry into a market, Nolo's book covers the gamut. Starting a business sounds intimidating, but it's really not...if you have this book by your side. The CD-ROM has a couple of useful files, but to really get the most out of the book you may have to follow their recommendations for further reading. It's a great place to start...overall very good book.

    The info is a little basic but does provide more than I thought I needed to know. I have only just begun reading it but have been very pleased with the information provided just in the first few pages!

    Let me start by saying that I normally don't give reviews, so the fact that I am taking the time to do so, speaks volumes.

    This book is fantastic! When looking for books about starting a small business, it seemed that the majority of books are "inspirational" in nature. I needed information (specifics about forms and taxes, etc.), not inspiration. I am very impressed by this book. It is packed with useful information, and it provides resources for futher information.

    I teach Business and IT classes. If I ever taught a small business class, this would be the textbook for the class. It is simply a must for anyone wanting to start a business. Start here! You will not be disappointed.



    4 out of 5 stars emphasis on legal; valuable   February 12, 2009

    I bought it for my son who found it valuable. It emphasizes the legal aspects but this was to be expected because it came from Nolo Press. Coming from Nolo, it had the high quality/substance that characterizes their publications.
