The book includes step-by-step guidance and advice on:
- how to find key markets, locate customers and determine their preferences;
- how to develop estimates of capital requirements for land, construction of buildings and production facilities;
- how to purchase equipment;
- how to develop a financing plan, including the key financial statements that show early indication of potential problems;
- the types of permits and regulations that may be necessary;
- delays and costs that can occur from ensuring compliance;
- keeping an eye on emerging trends and current consumer preferences; and
- monitoring external threats and opportunities.
