The Complete Idiot's Guide to Business Plans, 2nd Edition

This is a fantastic quick starter for getting your business plan off the ground. I would recommend to anyone needing direction on getting started or anyone looking to refresh an existing plan.

Writing a business plan sucks and there's no way of getting around that unless you pay to have a plan written for you. This book is helpful.

Often, a copywriter is approached to "write a business plan". "Writing" is but a small part of preparing a business plan. This book will guide the entrepreneur, consultant or copywriter through the research and planning work that makes it a plan.The book complements the "Dummies" equivalent. Buy them both.
