I will most certainly be reading it multiple times throughout my start-up process. Theres great forms you can use and even practice problems to solve with how to measure for certain items. I could not give it all 5 stars however; because it focused a great deal on saling products and how to price them without ever really focusing on how to price your services and time. Overall; this book gives a designer starting out an edge on what to expect and how to be prepared for it. Great book!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

I am still reading it; so I do not have a final opinion; but it is helping to shed light on what I will need to start my own business. I plan on reading several publications and doing further research; so this is one of many references I will use.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
