Ultimate Start-Up Directory

This book is like sitting down with an experienced business man going, "I have little to none for start up costs. Can you give me suggestionS?" And then he goes off and explains a ton of ideas! Not just the subject, but giving you details to think about! I liked it a lot.

This book is easy and fun to read and packed with tons of great ideas. In the past I have purchased other books similar in topic and was always disappointed by the fact that the authors seemed to point out the obvious and went out of their way to constantly tell readers what they must know in order to succeed, over and over, and over...I find this to be subjective at best and at worst mind numbingly boring to read. I was relieved to discover this book was different, the author simply features a ton of ways you can make money working for yourself in a quick read format. I'm working with a few of the ideas in greater detail and have found the information to be spot on the money and well researched. I highly recomend this book to anyone who wants to get out of the job frame of mind and start making more money by using a few simple ideas.

Simply the best book I have ever read about starting a business. No get rich quick scams, no "look inside yourself" motivational hype, just great ideas to get you making money by working for yourself.

Just thought I'd share a very positive experience. I purchased Mr. Stephenson's book before Christmas thinking that I might be able to find a part time business that I could start with a minimal investment, and I did. In February I started a Graffiti Removal Service that was featured in the book and I already have over two dozen repeat customers and growing! Not bad for 4 months and a part time effort. I highly recomend this book to anyone that is thinking about starting their own business. Great book, great idea's and great advice.

If you are looking for great business start up ideas, then this book is for you. Having been recently layed off from my job I decided that perhaps it was time to start my own business, and secure my future. Like most I did not know where to start. Having purchased this book gave me some great ideas for businesses that I can start, and I am currently narrowing the field. I found the book easy to read, full of great information that can be applied to almost any persons situation, and most importantly a great resource and inspiration tool, especially for someone like me with limited business exsperience. A must have for anyone thinking about starting a business!
