Senior Associates at Unicorn
Consulting Associates are experts in Small Business; our knowledge and
practical experience (minimum of 15 years) is extensive. If you would
like to start educating yourself on Small Business the tip of
the knowledge iceberg is outlined in the following Small Business books:
Special Note:
Unicorn Consulting Associates does not recommend ANY book for small
business regarding taxes, tax planning or tax management. Business
taxes change rapidly and vary widely from state to state. Any book
written today on taxes can be dangerously out of date by tomorrow.
The only good source for advice on taxes is a qualified CPA with
extensive experience working with small businesses. Similarly,
we do not recommend any book on legal advice for small businesses.
Legal advice is best given by a qualified lawyer with extensive
experience working with small businesses in your state. Going cheap
on a lawyer or a CPA is a horrible mistake many small business
owners make; we get what we pay for.
