The Complete Idiot’s Guide To Low-Cost Startups

You know you can’t start a business on a wish and a prayer. Tight credit and the high costs associated with brick-and-mortar startups are driving entrepreneurs to find alternative ways to start businesses out of their homes—on a shoestring budget. You just need an idea that’s right for you, a realistic business startup plan, and the commitment to pursue your dream of being your own boss.

But what’s the right home-grown business? What skills are necessary? What will it really cost, and how much money will it generate in a short period of time? All these questions and more are answered in The Complete Idiot’s Guide® to Low-Cost Startups. Small business consultant and CPA Gail Margolies Reid has been working with entrepreneurs for over 30 years and shares:

• The Three C’s of a low-cost startup: your car, computer, and cell phone.

• How to decide which business is right for you.

• The fastest and most effective ways to get up and running.

• Examples of businesses that can start generating much-needed cash quickly.

• The actual costs/benefits of each low-cost startup.

• Ways to get customers and market the business.

• How to set up a back office, keep simple books, collect fees, and more.
