Synopsis

The Beginner's Guide to Low-Risk Entrepreneurship
You want to start your own business, but "risk" isn't your middle name. You're not alone. Many successful entrepreneurs are averse to risk--but they have learned the tricks to working around it. And now you can too, with School for Startups.
This practical guide shows you how to build a business the smart way--without risking major assets such as your house, savings account, or health insurance.
You'll learn how to increase your chance of success by:

• Funding your venture without investors
• Entering international markets
• Taking full advantage of tools on the Web
• Marketing your product or service for little or no cost
• Deploying a third party to package and ship products
• Taking control of an existing business or franchise

The authors present hundreds of the best ideas for new businesses, along with case studies proving the effectiveness of their approach.
