  • This is a "must have" book for those just starting out, covers EVERYTHING!!

    My friend and I are opening up a new retail business. It's been a dream of ours forever, and now that we found the perfect place, we decided to go for it...not really knowing what to expect or where to start. So I went on-line and found this book. It is probably the most helpful book we've ever found....the author covers everything you could ever possibly need to know and gives examples and hints to make our dream work. We didn't need anything else to help us start, other than talking to other retailers and asking lots of questions. Buy it, you won't need another!!
