Synopsis "Starting!"
Starting! is a bestselling business book for new start-ups and established SMEs. It shows you how to think like an investor, stress test the assumptions in your business case, avoid expensive pitfalls... and turn the money tap on full. Research shows that new business failures can be as high as 83% within the first 18 months. If you borrowed money to start that business... then that can be a financial disaster. Bank loan surveys show that 54% of business alone applications do NOT include a written business plan and ... 94% of those that do, have a FLAWED business case. Starting! teaches you to think like a seasoned investor. Specifically, you will learn ten questions that investors ask to quickly determine if they want to invest... or not. Its like an investment MOT for your business idea.These ten questions flush out the assumptions that can waste time, cost you a lot of money or even sink your business. If you are an established business... the SAME questions will enable you to perform a rapid SWOT test (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats) on your EXISTING business case. Potentially, you could easily be leaving money on the table. This is a perfect book to read if you are thinking of starting up a new business... and essential if you already have a business. The book has several sections that cover: The Goal of Business Vs the Purpose of BusinessThree Valuable Lessons For EntrepreneursThe truth about ideasBusiness plans - yes or no>? (Obviously, this book recommends a written business plan, but here's why)The ten questionsThe Ten Questions Workshop Plus: This book is jam packed with REAL case studies and anecdotes for work a day SME businesses... and updated for 2023.
