Most people think accountants speak a foreign language. But here, financial statements, financial analysis and control, break-even analysis, profit improvement, securing the right type of funding, and buying and selling a business are all clearly explained and simplified. Expert advice is given through financial FAQs; short, easy-to-read, and understandable sections; and case studies providing insights into what other businesses have done and why it worked for them.
As teacher, consultant, venture capitalist, and company director, Paul Barrow has helped dozens of small- and medium-sized enterprises to secure funding and grow as well as starting up, growing, and selling many businesses of his own. He is also the author of The Best-Laid Business Plans.
