Starting a small business has been very difficult for me. Finding the answers I need to my questions has been a challenge. This book provided me specific, step-by-step information about how to obtain the money I needed for my business. Surprisingly, money was available for me, but without this book, I would never have found it. If you want money for your business, read this one-of-a-kind book.

From complicated terms such as "IPO's" to how to borrow from your family, this book takes you through the steps. The chapter on using networking to locate capital was really interesting, with little tips like marking the cards you get with the date and a note. My only complaint is that the book needs internet addresses. But the information in the back of the book listing resources is invaluable.

As a business major at Oklahoma State University I found this book to be an awesome resource for my research. It showed me how to start my own business, create a network, gain capital not only from my family and friends but from places that I didn't even know about. The book was quite straight forward and easy to follow. So many of the statistics used throughout the book really helped me to better understand how far men are ahead of women [or so it seems]. Card even threw somethings back into your face about how women are somewhat passive and aren't as straightforward as men are. I found many facts like that throughout the book and that is what held my interest. This book truely was insightful on many levels and tells it like it is. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to own their own business or is already in their business and is in the bind of possible closer.
