“Believe You Can and You are Half Way there” – Theodore Roosevelt
A great successful business starts with an ingenious idea. Once you are able to pinpoint a niche market for you unique idea, the homework starts! Knowing from my own personal experience from the days of opening my own franchise business several years back, there are an unlimited amount of work that needs to be accomplished even before you open the doors of your business. Starting your own business is an overwhelming endeavor that could seem impossible to pursue for a novice entrepreneur. On the other hand, fortunately, there is an unlimited amount of expertise and resources that you could turn to on the way to your successful business launch and a future profitable stability ahead.
For your consideration, here are some of the most current book references on how to start a business. As an online incubator for business start-ups and entrepreneurs on the way to their success, Moomkin.com always wishes to be your handy online go-to source and a reference guide to your business venture’s success.
1. Start Your Own Business, Fifth Edition (Start Your Own Business: The Only Start-Up Book You’ll Ever Need) by Entrepreneur Press
As skeptical as the second part of the title sounds (“the only start-up book you’ll ever need”) the guide is actually filled with so many tips and advice that a lot of the readers appear to go back to even after launching their business. “It offers critical startup essentials and a current, comprehensive view of what it takes to survive the crucial first three years, giving your exactly what you need to survive and succeed.”
2. The Accidental Entrepreneur: The 50 Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me About Starting a Business by Susan Urquhart-Brown

Through trial and error of her own business journey, she documents the helpful tips and resourceful shortcuts. “With hard-won wisdom and empathy, she shows readers… how to create a successful and fulfilling venture they can be proud of.”
3. The Big Book of Small Business: You Don’t Have to Run Your Business by the Seat of Your Pants by Tom Gegax, Phil Bolsta
The author shares his experience as the owner of Tires Plus franchise. He dissects not only the helpful resources of how to start your own business; but also how to develop your personal business skills “to become an enlightened, effective leader, and on how to do the small things right so the big decisions work.”

Take it as a compilation of helpful tips and resources on how to get your virtual business off the ground, and not an overnight success. “No gimmicks and no fakery to seduce you.
