Product Description

Online business is booming, and you're ready for a piece of the e-biz pie. Maybe you've developed a brilliant idea for a ".com" business that is sure to reap big bucks, or perhaps you run an established small business, and plan to take your concept online. How can you convince an investment "angel" to fund your dreams of expansion? What you need is a business plan--your path to success, the best way to win investment dollars from venture capitalists or from individual investors. This guide tells you how to do just that, detailing not just the steps but offering advice from successful entrepreneurs, leading venture capital executives, and noted e-biz experts. In addition, the second-half of the book comprises a "Dotcom" directory. Author Joanne Eglash has sleuthed out the top resources for e-biz entrepreneurs, and she reveals where to find what you need to get your dotcom off and running -- and to make it a success. You'll find detailed information on "virtual" government agencies and free publications, resources for young entrepreneurs, management and recruitment Web sites, incubators, marketing and advertising, and even more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fund that internet Idea. This is a must have!, December 12, 2000
By "jrussas" (Scotts Valley, CA USA) - See all my reviews
Being in the tech industry any successful person is tempted to start their own company. I bought this book because I wanted to know what it takes to start my own Internet business. Coming up with an idea was the easy part. Selling it to people and getting it funded isn't. It's hard to know where to even start. This "How to Write a .com Business Plan" book provided exactly the information that I needed. The advice from successful entrepreneurs was especially useful. I now have a much better understanding of the process and what I need to do. If you have a good idea but don't know how to take it to the next level this book is a must have!

2.0 out of 5 stars Just another book in a sea of many, December 8, 2000
By Paul A. Broni (Rockville, MD USA) - See all my reviews
I originally thought that this book would do a better job of addressing the needs of Internet entrepreneurs (emphasis on the word "Internet"), but it's just another book on business plan writing; the only difference is that ".com" has been added to boost sales. As a business planning book, it's not that it's a bad book, per se, it's just not an extraordinary one.

For starters, it's not 240 pages, as advertised; it's only 190. And of that 190, almost a third is the same list of resources and references that every other book provides. Does the entrepreneur really need to be told ad nauseam that the SBA is a good source of information? And I was really shocked to see that addressing the technology related to running an Internet business was covered in less than one full page.

The bottom line is that if you don't already own a business plan book, this is as good as any other. If you already have such a book, save yourself [the money] and skip this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Useful for Entrepreneurs!, October 5, 2000
By "cass_h" (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
I found this book to be extremely helpful. I especially liked the checklists for the different sections of a business plan. Also all of the online resources were great, because it saved me the time I usually spend hunting around on the Internet for what a need. Definitely worth getting.
