"The Small Business Planner has been a valuable tool for the start up of my business. The author's clear, concise and to the point writing style allowed me to get the key points and save time doing so. As a startup, our time is our most valuable asset and the author well understands that.

"As a life-long entrepreneur, it was refreshing to finally have a user's guide to starting and operating a small business. The author looks at all facets of operating a business and breaks it down into small digestible pieces. This effective tool can be used by starting at the front cover or jumping right into any section, such as the excellent piece in Operations that focuses on creating effective web sites. One of the great qualities of The Small Business Planner is that the lessons can be implemented in any business; manufacturing, retail, service or the Internet. A must read for anyone starting a business or entrepreneurs who are looking for a refresher."

"The tips from the marketing section of the book such as budgeting and developing a strategy were invaluable for my business. The finance section was also so important as it made me realize how crucial measuring results on paper can be in making or breaking a seemingly successful business. I would highly recommend The Small Business Planner to anyone in the contracting business."
