5.0 out of 5 stars
Great guide to getting started,
By Piffle (Gloucestershire) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Small Time Operator: How to Start Your Own Small Business, Keep Your Books, Pay Your Taxes, and Stay Out of Trouble! (Small Time Operator: How to Start ... Keep Yourbooks, Pay Your Taxes, & Stay Ou) (Paperback)
As an Englishman attempting to start a business in the USA I thought this was a great guide to keeping accounts, taxes, etc. I enjoyed most of the jokey stuff as a light diversion although I really didn't need to be convinced about the importance of keeping accurate financial records.

Still stuck in the white male business stereotype.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Small Time Operator: How to Start Your Own Small Business, Keep Your Books, Pay Your Taxes and Stay Out of Trouble! (22nd ed) (Paperback)
I am a woman. I am president of an s-corp and bought Small Time Operator for tax information. While the text is useful I am completely put off by the illistrations. The pictures, all cartoons, depict business situations and all the business men are just that - men. What I want is a book that honestly depicts all the people running businesses. While a number of the written scenarios are about women, the cartoons speak much louder. To the author - get with the times. You are overlooking the fastest growning population of business owners. To readers - this book may be useful but I don't like spending my independently hard earned money on 1960's mentality.

Okay for the true novice to business,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Small Time Operator: How to Start Your Own Small Business, Keep Your Books, Pay Your Taxes, and Stay Out of Trouble! (Small Time Operator: How to Start ... Keep Yourbooks, Pay Your Taxes, & Stay Ou) (Paperback)
This book is okay if you have no prior business knowledge. It will bring you up to speed before you read the better books that offer the heavy artillery.For first timers, okay. Experienced, pass. 44 of 45 people found the following review helpful:

Kudos for a plain spoken expert.,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Small Time Operator: How to Start Your Own Small Business, Keep Your Books, Pay Your Taxes and Stay Out of Trouble! (22nd ed) (Paperback)
I began researching business start-up about two years ago, and I've been in business now for about a year. As a career bureacrat, I had no prior knowledge whatever about the nuts and bolts of business. Being something less than an accounting whiz, I found most of the scores of "idiots guides" and "made simple" books I consulted on business startup incomprehensible, poorly written, "what to" rather than "how to," or some combination thereof. Mr Kamoroff's book is different. He begins at the beginning, and builds on fundamental ideas in a way an absolute novice such a myself can comprehend. Yet, he packs a phenomenal amount of information into a short space, and his expertise is obvious. His book provides clear instructions for creating and maintaining the bookkeeping side of a business. I built the single-entry bookkeeping system for my "one person" business using Small Time Operator, and I constantly refer to the book when I have tax questions. This is a book that cannot be recomended too highly to aspiring entrepreneurs.

A New Book with a Track Record,
By Dan Poynter "Author-Publisher-Speaker" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Small Time Operator: How to Start Your Own Small Business, Keep Your Books, Pay Your Taxes, and Stay Out of Trouble! (Small Time Operator: How to Start ... Keep Yourbooks, Pay Your Taxes, & Stay Ou) (Paperback)
Bernard (Bear) Kamoroff proves an author/publisher can make a living on one book. Through 24 revised editions and 54 printings in 22 years, this very successful guide has to be the best-selling accounting book of all time. Continually updated, it just keeps on getting better and better. Kamoroff takes you through Getting Started (business location, financing, legal structure, licenses & permits, import & export, insurance, business name and business plan), Bookkeeping (bank accounts, recording income, sales & expenditures and financial management), Business Growth (hiring help, incorporation), Taxes (expenses, self-employment tax, retirement deductions, the IRS, returns, other taxes), and in the Appendix (how to find a good accountant, home-based businesses, buying & selling a business, freelancers and more). This book has a great title and it was the title that made people pick it up to discover the great content. I have been a publisher for 31 years and I wish this book had been written 32 years ago. Fortunately, it has been with me for 22. DanPoynter@ParaPublishing.com. |
