A complete commercial financing guide
As one of those asked to write a blurb for the cover of the book, and who made one or two modest suggestions, I come to this with some prejudice. However, having been an asset based lender for some thirty five years, I have never seen a more complete treatment of the practical aspects of business finance.
Many books are written on such a theoretical level, that they are worth little to the entrepreneur or the CFO of a mid-sized company. Ken Marks and his team have made the complicated seem almost simple. They lay out the details for you in laymen's language and provide resources for capitalizing your business.
If you are serious about your business's growth and profitability, you need this book. It will help move you to the next level.

A Worthy Investment
I bought this book about a year and a half ago, and have been reminded of the wisdom of that purchase every time I pick it up again...a great ROI on that small investment!
Good Value For Time Invested in reading
If you're a startup or an entrepreneur...you have very little time and/or few sources of quality information.
This book gives you the big picture, it also gives you many details that are hard to get...it's the best investment you can make with your time.
Reads like a great novel for the Entrepreneur
If you are like me, you read a lot of books to help you become a better Entrepreneur, looking for those tasty morsels that give you ideas or methods to succeed in growing your business.
This books is one of the few of its kind that I could not put down. Each section was interesting and most were relevant. I am sick of reading about pure high tech and software only plays. This book is not only very educational, it is a reference manual that never leaves my desk. The Database of funding sources is invaluable.
Excellence in Grwoing companeis
Whether you are a start-up, growing a business or just interested in business reading, Kenneth H.Marks provides a clear insight into topics and issues required by any business person. Thought I understood finance until I read this book and located gaping holes in my understanding. Would recommend this book for any business course- it fills in the knowledge gaps that business schools leave.
