I have just started my online business with this book at my side, it tells you about copyright laws, international laws and lots of other legal stuff that is required in setting up as a LTD, Partnership, Sole Trader or a LLP.

The book tells you how to write a business plan, how to get sponsorships from the Princes Trust and banks etc, it tells you what you should do in terms of laying people off if that should ever happen,

How to draw up terms of sale, disclaimers, how to employ staff, how to choose your products, search for competition, price your products accordingly, too high or too low is bad for your business.

.Business Plans for Dummies (For Dummies)

by: Colin Barrow, Paul Tiffany, Steven Peterson

August 13, 2004
I approached my bank for for additional finance for my business.
Surprise surprise they asked for a BUSINESS PLAN. Having avoided this chore so far, I had to scour the Amazon pages for help.
I identified with the Dummies title and was not disapointed with the book I bought, this one.
It took me into a whole lot of places I'd never been before and few I had touched on briefly. Two weeks of hard work and some well thumbed chapters and I had a business plan. A week later I had my loan from the bank. Now thats what I call a great return on investment...a ration of around 10,000 to 1.

.The Business Plan Workbook: The Definitive Guide to Researching, Writing Up and Presenting a Winning Plan

by: Colin Barrow

June 03, 2008
The cover claims to contain assignments to help you construct the plan. Instead the book gives general business assignments including writing flyers and how to do basic book keeping. Actually putting a business plan document together is eventually covered in the last chapter over 10 pages and consists mainly of an example table of contents and the advice to wear a suit to present to investors. Not what I expected from the cover!

November 18, 2004
As an owner manager of a small business, I've been searching for ideas about how to grow my business successfully for a while. This book finally ticks all the boxes. It covers all the key areas that I need to look at and that you would expect to see(marketing, strategy, people, finance).
