Entrepreneurship: A Real-World Approach
“What separates Rhonda Abrams from the crowd? She is an expert in building successful small businesses. And she continues to create timely, meaningful and (most importantly) useful content for academics, students, and business owners like myself. This book is the definitive guide for anyone who either wants to be an entrepreneur or just wants to grow their own business.”
— Gene Marks, New York Times small business columnist
Business Plan In A Day
“ A business plan is something every business needs, but too many fail to create one because it seems intimidating. Rhonda Abrams is on a mission to change that. With this book she shows you how to create a professional business plan that will seem like it took weeks to write instead of 24 hours.”
— Anita Campbell, Publisher of Small Business Trends
“I’m growing my business this year by purchasing a commercial building, and I needed a real estate loan to make the purchase. Business Plan In A Day was THE source I used for writing my plan, and the bankers and brokers I spoke with all commended my plan as being very strong and well-written. Thanks to you, I’ve secured my loan and the transaction is going through. I feel so fortunate to have found this book.”
— Lisa Stillman, Garden Walk Massage Therapy, St. Louis, MO

—John Jantsch, author of Duct Tape Marketing and The Referral Engine

— Meredith Carpenter, Entrepreneurship Instructor, Haywood Community College
Successful Business Plan: Secrets & Strategies
“[Successful Business Plan is] user-friendly and exhaustive...highly recommended. Abrams’ book works because she tirelessly researched the subject. Most how-to books on entrepreneurship aren’t worth a dime; among the thousands of small business titles, Abrams’ [is an] exception.”
— Forbes Magazine
“There are plenty of decent business-plan guides out there, but Abrams’ was a cut above the others I saw. Successful Business Plan won points with me because it was thorough and well organized, with handy worksheets and good quotes. Also, Abrams does a better job than most at explaining the business plan as a planning tool rather than a formulaic exercise. Well done.”
— Inc. Magazine
“We are again using Successful Business Plan in my business honors course this semester. Must be working, as Penn State was just named (by Kaplan and Newsweek magazine) as the ‘hottest school in the U.S. for student entrepreneurs!’”
— Greg Pierce, Penn State University
“Successful Business Plan enables my Entrepreneurship students at the University of Vermont to develop really great business plans. The book’s easy-to-follow, step-by-step format makes preparing a plan logical and understandable. Over the years...several students have actually launched their businesses successfully. Our son used the book at St. Michael’s College in Vermont to develop a plan for airport fitness centers, winning the school’s annual business plan competition for business majors...with a hefty cash prize! His plan was so thorough, especially the financials, that he was flown to the West Coast to present his plan to a prospective buyer. The bottom line, there is no better road map to business plan success than Successful Business Plan!”
— David Kaufman, University of Vermont
“If you’d like something that goes beyond the mere construction of your plan and is more fun to use, try Successful Business Plan: Secrets and Strategies, by Rhonda Abrams...this book can take the pain out of the process.”
— “Small Business School,” PBS television show

“As a 20 plus year veteran SBDC director, consultant and entrepreneurship instructor, I have assisted thousands of individuals and business owners through the planning process. Having reviewed tens of thousands of plans and critiquing hundreds of planning texts, programs and tools, Successful Business Plan: Secrets & Strategies remains my hands-down favorite text/workbook/ guide. The content and construction is comprehensive, practical and ‘do-able’ for the serious small business owner/entrepreneur.”
— David Gay, Illinois Small Business Development Center at College of DuPage
“In my opinion, your book is the definitive guide for successful business plans. I particularly appreciate and recommend the use of the Flow-Through Financial worksheets. Each is a great device to illustrate the connection between the qualitative and quantitative elements of a plan.”
— Gene Elliott, Business Consultant, New Mexico
“I’ve been using and promoting Successful Business Plan since 1993, and it’s great! I’ve taught business plan writing in several local SBDCs, as well as nationally, through the Neighborhood Reinvestment Training Institute. My course is designed and delivered around your book. ”
— Ransom S. Stafford, Business Consultant, Twin Cities, MN
“One of the best books on business planning. The overall quality of this book is excellent, but three things make it stand out: First, it contains worksheets that walk you through the information gathering process. Fill them out, and even the financials—always the hardest part of a plan—will fall right into place. Second, it has a sample plan that reads like a real business plan, written by a real person for a real business. You can use much of the wording in your own plan. Third, it has tips from successful managers, leaders, and business owners, large and small. I was especially fascinated reading the tips from ex-49’er СКАЧАТЬ
