    I was unimpressed by this book. I wanted a clear guide to help evaluate what I should pay for a small business. This is not it.

    A good starting point for someone new to valuation. Not an academic tome, but more of an entry level book.

    If you are brand new to this topic, like I was, this is the book for you. It’s easy to read and you will be left with a great overall understanding of the process. You can use the capitalization rate method to ballpark a value for your business in minutes. I’ve since gone on to order several other books that will hopefully expand on the topics covered. However, I’m 100% confident that this book should be the starting point for everyone new to this topic. And, I could now entertain offers for my business confidently, without getting out gunned, overwhelmed, or low balled by experienced business buyers, including individuals investors or brokers. On top of that, I know precisely how to expand my business value by hundreds of thousands this year 2008!

    After ten years as a bank underwiriter for small businesses, I am very impressed at how this book distills a great deal of information down and puts it all in one place. If you are planning on buying or selling a business, are a beginning or experienced entrepreneur, or are just interested in what makes a business valuable or not, this surprising book is for you.

    A “blue collar” book for gaining a negotiating advantage. From reading financials to closing strategies . . . this twenty dollar book saved me thousands. If your buying a business . . . or selling one . . . you’d be a fool not to invest in this one.
