5/5 RatingOne stop shop for learning everything about starting a business. Although it can be hard work - it is also very rewarding to have something you can call your own. Something that you control and pass down to your children if you like. You can't do that with a job, but a business you can.This book will help guide you through many of the pitfalls most business owners encounter simply because they have not done the work. Many people think because they have a good idea they would excel at business. starting a business is a job in itself. You not only have to have a product or service but articles of incorporation - tax ID number, EIN numbers, business address, specified accounts to pay taxes, ways of receiving money, ways of tracing it all. ways of marketing. It is not for the weak hearted. And this book will help guide you through it all.If you're serious about starting your own business - do yourself a favor and get this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars A LOT OF UNNECESSARY KNOWLEDGE!

E.T. · March 24, 2025

I’m going to keep this review short. As I read through this book it reminded me of when I was in college, having to take classes that were tedious, boring and mostly unnecessary for my degree.In this book I trodded through information that I know isn’t going to do me any good. The title is what grabbed me. I thought it was going to simplify information that would be much needed to start a business. Instead, after having read this entire book I was not satisfied.It has way to much information if a potential business owner is trying to set up a small business without a lot of fuss. The only info that I found that may be useful to me are the websites. I won’t say that my time, energy or effort was wasted because it doesn’t hurt to try to learn new things. But what I’m looking for is “information that I can use now”.I’ve got two more business books to get through by the end of this coming July. I want to start putting my business plans into action. But I want to finished reading all the books that I plan to read on “starting a business” or “how to start a business”. I want to stop reading and start doing.I gave this book three stars because of the information overload. I think it’s a good idea to combine several business books under one cover, but it has to and should be beneficial.

Ottimo libro per tutti gli imprenditori/startupper

F. · December 30, 2022

Libro che racchiude molti concetti che altrimenti sarebbero dispersi in innumerevoli libri/siti web (si presenta come all-in-one ed è di parola), per cui consiglio vivamente di tenerlo sempre a portata di mano nel proprio viaggio da imprenditore. Struttura tipica dei libri "for dummies" che ormai è collaudatissima da anni (consigli, reminder, ...) e che personalmente adoro. Libro super consigliato!
