The new edition of Writing Your Plan for Small Business Success follows the same practical, hands-on approach of Birt's other small business texts.

Written from the small business operator’s perspective, a student will be able to prepare and use a sound business plan by following the guidelines provided in this book. It is also an essential text for students studying small business management.

For ease of use, the book is divided into two parts:

• Part A provides guidelines for the step-by-step building of a business plan. 
• Part B outlines sample small business plans covering a range of small business situations.
