Are you setting up a small business? Do you need help to identify your product or service? Are you looking for guidance in marketing and finance?
Teach Yourself Setting Up a Small Business is for you. It contains the advice you would expect to find in a book of this sort, but it also offers very practical hints from two people who have done it themselves.

The authors give guidance on specialised areas such as legal requirements, self assessment for income tax, opening a retail or office-based business, staff selection and marketing.

The authors, Vera Hughes and David Weller started their own business, DEVA Training Services, in 1980. Before that they were involved in the retail industry for many years, and Vera became a Senior Training Advisor with the Manpower Services Commission, specialising in office and retail training.
They run their business as a partnership and have experienced all the rewards and traumas of setting up and running a very small business, which has thrived, diversified, changed and is still going strong.
