An excellent resource for small business management, entrepreneurship, and hybrid courses (especially with our custom options), SBM combines fundamentals of business management with an emphasis on teaching aspiring business owners not only how to start a business but also how to manage, grow, and harvest one--the full business cycle. Featuring an integrated learning system, SBM continues to place emphasis on the business plan, offering many ways to assign it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great resource for budding entrepreneurs., April 13, 2009
By 
K. Ruiz (Oakland, California) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Small Business Management: Launching and Growing Entrepreneurial Ventures (with Printed Access Card) (Hardcover)
I bought this book for a Small Business Management class at Berkeley City College. It is completely full of information on how to build a small business the proven way the first time. There are plenty of testimonials and case studys and exercises to help us apply business fundamentals to real-world situations.

I also like the online component that has flashcards to help learn the keywords and videos, too.

It's a heavy book. It's very expensive, list price $190.00. I bought mine used (from a person who used it once for a test, so it's practically brand new) for $90 + $3 shipping. Still expensive, but way cheaper by comparison.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, Great Case Studies, November 3, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Small Business Management: Launching and Growing Entrepreneurial Ventures (with Printed Access Card) (Hardcover)
I got this book for a Small Business Management class that I took a while ago. This book was packed with great information and the case studies where great as well and made you think with a whole different perspective on business matters. I've kept this book and have not traded or sold it because it has a ton of useful information for people thinking about starting a new business. I would not only recommend this to people taking a business class, but also for people out in the real world toying with the idea of starting their own business.

4.0 out of 5 stars a little basic for business major, August 26, 2011
By 
Mila (Florida USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Small Business Management: Launching and Growing Entrepreneurial Ventures (with Printed Access Card) (Hardcover)
I purchased this book for my SBM class.The book is good for freshmen. Very colorful and and easy to understand. However, for my business major it's too simple. I found nothing new to learn from it. I gave it 4 stars because it's entartaining, and.... I would give only 1 star to my professor who picked the book for the beginners :)
