Review:

"Small Time Operator" is head and shoulders above all the other business help books, but there's nothing 'small time' about it. It's complete, and it belongs on your desk.--American Association of Small Business Employers

From the Back Cover:

Written for small businesses, self-employed individuals, employers, professionals, independent contractors, home businesses, and Internet businesses, Small Time Operator is the most popular business start-up guide ever. In clear, easy-to-understand language, the author covers getting permits and licenses; how to finance a business; finding the right business location; creating and using a business plan; choosing and protecting a business name; deciding whether to incorporate; establishing a complete bookkeeping system; hiring employees; federal, state, and local taxes; buying a business or franchise; dealing with--and avoiding--the IRS; doing business on the Internet; handling insurance, contracts, pricing, trademarks, patents, and much more. This new edition features sections on surviving the Global Information Grid--or GIG--economy. There are hundreds of thousands of newly self-employed individuals operating in this new, on-demand economy, but unfortunately the great majority of these workers have zero experience or knowledge about self-employment. This book will provide on-demand workers with everything they need to know to not only survive, but truly thrive in the modern economy.
