About this title

From the Author

I previously taught one of the nation's largest undergraduate courses on entrepreneurship. We covered everything from legal forms of organization to cashing out. Toward the end of one semester (after 45 classes!), a student asked me if an entrepreneur could really expect to master all of the course material in the little free time they have. I had to honestly answer, "no." What then, the student asked, MUST they really know? The answer to that question resulted in this book.
