1 Great book
This book saved me a lot of money by allowing me to form my own one-owner California corporation. I liked the fact that it explained why it wasn't recommending certain things so that you could decide whether it was worth it to you or not.

The only area that I felt it could have explained things more thoroughly was that while it explained how to issue initial shares, it didn't explain at all how to issue any subsequent shares (e.g., in case your corporation was about to run out of money and you (the owner) wanted to buy more shares to inject more capital). It just said to consult a lawyer. So I had to inject more capital via a loan instead. If it's that complicated, then perhaps the author should warn people to slightly overcapitalize the corporation initially.

3 Excellent tutorial and reference
Everything you need to know about starting a small business in California is in here. What legal structure to choose, which agencies you need to deal with, what forms you need and where to get them, web addresses, phone numbers, and all the details.

It also has a wealth of information on running a business, including information on accounting, taxation, and employees. It's well organized and easy to read.

The only gaps are in some of the details on forming LLCs and corporations. The reader is referred to other Nolo books for the gritty details. If you're forming a partnership or sole proprietorship -- probably the most common types for "cottage industry" -- the book is reasonably complete.

4 Excellent Book
This is my first book review, because this is the first book I've purchased where I've truly felt moved to tell people how excellent it is. If you are starting up a small business in California, this book is invaluable. It tells you where to find all of the information you'll need to start up your business, in easy to understand terms. Also includes a CD-ROM with lots of forms. All of her advice is really helpful and I find myself going back to the book all the time. Just knowing it's there makes me feel better!

She includes URLs to web sites with information - and even tells you what other books to get on a subject she doesn't cover too in-depth. And all the information you need is easy to find.

5 stars!

5 FINALLY, A BUSINESS START UP BOOK FOR THE REST OF US
Well worth the price! It answered every question I had -- and answered a lot of questions I hadn't even thought about. Really easy to understand and set up in a smart way - going through the steps you would when creating a business. The section on "hobby or business" is the best explanation I ever read about that stuff. Much better than going to a lawyer and has lots of first person battle stories. Even if you've got a Cal business going -- this book is still cool!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

• Legal Guide for Starting & Running a Small Business, Seventh Edition

"Multiply in your head" (ordered the compassionate Dr. Adams) "365,365,365,

365,365,365 by 365,365,365,365,365,365".  He [ten-year-old Truman Henry

Safford] flew around the room like a top, pulled his pantaloons over the

tops of his boots, bit his hands, rolled his eyes in their sockets, sometimes

smiling and talking, and then seeming to be in an agony, until, in not more

than one minute, said he, 133,491,850,208,566,925,016,658,299,941,583,225!"

An electronic computer might do the job a little faster but it wouldn't be

as much fun to watch.

And the French medical anatomist Etienne Serres really did argue that

black males are primitive because the distance between their navel and

penis remains small (relative to body height) throughout life, while

white children begin with a small separation but increase it during

growth -- the rising belly button as a mark of progress.
