Rosemary Coates wrote a great book here. Before anything else, we have to say that this book was very concise and easy to get through. The level of writing this woman presented is extraordinary. She goes over the exact things you need to know about the topic, just as they should be written. As such a well situated and successful woman this should have come as no surprise, but we were still surprised by the amount of value this book brings. Her amazing career as a business consultant definitely gave her the edge here. Definitely, a must-read for any up and coming small business owner.
