SMALL BUSINESS START UP BOOKS

Back to Small Business Start Ups Page

Senior Associates at Unicorn Consulting Associates are experts in Small Business Start Up; our knowledge and practical experience (minimum of 15 years) is extensive.  If you would like to start educating yourself on Small Business Start Up the tip of the knowledge iceberg is outlined in the following Small Business Start Up 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 Any book written today on taxes can be dangerously out of date by tomorrow.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.
