I was lucky enough to spot this book when they had a free promo. The information is worth what I have seen on other sites for $50 or more. It truly takes a rookie, newbie approach and holds your hand from start to finish. The authors did a fantastic job in walking you through and holding your hand in an engaging, easy-to-understand way. I hope this comes out as a paperback since I do not have a Kindle and had to read it only on my Kindle Cloud Reader.

Thank you for a valuable book, aside from a couple of minor typos (which I only notice since I am also a writer and editor)... this book blows it out of the water compared to other books that are scattered and ramble on without telling you the fundamental things you need to know. I liked the fact they were not shy about telling you the actual providers they use, so that anyone can find the best places to open a store. I've been wanting to open a store for a while and they talk about everything from choosing a niche to affiliate marketing, blogging, and everything in between.

Read this in 2015 so it may be slightly dated for anything new today especially with AI. I've been able to launch a few businesses as it's the perfect beginner, hand-holding type of guide. It's so good, a friend at the time (later dropped) stole it and I had to buy another lol.

It's often that the first few ventures don't stick, but I'm so happy to say I've got one now that's on its way to replace my 9-5 income. It's all thanks to this book that got me started & made it so easy to stay motivated which is the biggest thing in business - keep going!!!

Only advice I'd give is the book says to start an LLC almost immediately, but I'd say wait until it makes at least $15k a year before doing so. (Like I said not every venture sticks)

Decent but dated

A decent read with usable information. It's a little dated but still good info. I would recommend reading it if you are totally new to opening a business.
