Let’s start your restaurant legacy right now, right here! National chains and single independent restaurants all started with an individual and an idea. A concept. A dream. Small ideas can grow into big business. Who would have thought that a guy with a milkshake machine could start a hamburger empire? A pizza made in a garage would start today’s pizza wars? A guy with a pressure-cooker would start a fried chicken phenomena? Business ownership has always been part of the all-American dream. Restaurants are the largest entrepreneurial opportunity in America for starting the dream.

If food excites you as much as it does me, you just might be a foodie. And in today's food-centered world, there is serious money to be made with your passion. Food consumption has really changed in the past decade, and now more than ever, people want to know what's in their food, where it came from and who made it. That's bad news for businesses that mass produce food, but great news for those in the cottage food industry.

Story3.5 out of 5 stars 10
Having your own restaurant is one of the most fulfilling and enjoyable business ventures. Food is a renewable commodity. This means that people won't stop looking for different sources of food because dining out is entertaining as well as functional. Many people dream of owning their own restaurants, whether it is fast food, coffee shops or gourmet. In reality, many people fail to sustain their restaurants and most restaurants die during their first year of operation.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, an intrapreneur, or a not-for-profit leader, there's no shortage of advice on such topics as writing a business plan, recruiting, raising capital, and branding. In fact there are so many books, articles, and websites that many startups get bogged down to the point of paralysis, or they focus on the wrong priorities and go broke before they discover their mistakes.

Publisher's Summary
"When we consider a project, we really study it - not just the surface idea but everything about it. And when we go into that new project, we believe in it all the way. We have confidence in our ability to do it right. And we work hard to do the best possible job." (Walt Disney)
Have you ever wanted to start a small business?
Have you ever thought it was tough to do so?
Unsure of how to get it started?
I completely understand your confusion and fears. There's so much information out there on the Internet and so many self-help gurus that it either takes time to put all the information together or you have to pay top dollar to have a guru explain it to you.
My name is Susan Kilmer, and I am the author of this "starting a business" guide. Over the course of my business and entrepreneurship background, I have taught hundreds of aspiring entrepreneurs how to start a business and business owners how to keep their businesses going, and the one thing they have all said at one time or another is, "I wish there was some manual or guide that would walk me through the steps of what I need to know to start and operate my business."
I listened, and I did it. I created this concise guide on how you can start a business.
It's not just any guide. It takes you through several things, including:
- How to assess yourself. Are you truly prepared?
- How to develop a strong business idea.
- How to research if your business idea could fit.
- Understanding a business plan.
- Business loans and funding options: What do banks want?
- How do I start, and what permits and licenses do I need?
- Do I need to incorporate?
- And much more!

Terrible narrator.
This has pretty basic but good information. My problem with it was the Narrator. I felt like I was being yelled at the whole time I listened. It was not the kind of voice that helped me to get engaged and pay attention to the topic.

Quite basic, consists of several books which overlap a lot. Content is very basic and general, it does outline useful principles though.

Text book
The title doesn’t really reflect the content. This is text guide to running a business and not anything really relating to a food business.
