Starting Your Own Business:
A Workbook
Ron Immink, Brian O'Kane & Terry Owens
Starting Your Own Business was written to meet a real need for practical, relevant information among would-be entrepreneurs.
The guide takes a potential entrepreneur through the whole process of starting a business, from first thoughts about self-employment to the practicalities of start-up. It consists of three chapters:
each of which is filled with checklists, flowcharts and questionnaires.
READY provides you with essential background information, preparatory to making a commitment to a start-up. It includes both Self-assessment and Market Research as key elements, as well as Training for Entrepreneurs and Start-up Alternatives.
STEADY takes you through the steps necessary to develop a Business Plan, including the Mission Statement, Strategy, Marketing, Staff, Finance, Taxation and Premises. Presenting the Business Plan and Financiers’ views on Business Plans are also included.
GO provides forms, documentation and further guidance to help you put your business into action.
In addition, templates and spreadsheets for key elements of the business plan, as well as updates for the Directory of Contact Addresses and a wide range of other information, are available for download from the Download page of www.startingabusinessinBRITAIN.com.
