| About the Book
Will your big new customer put your business over the top, or
take it to its knees? Will your new employee steal you blind? Is
your business needlessly vulnerable? The president of a small
consulting firm that works with large customers such as MCI, Du Pont
(and its affiliates), and WorldCom--and consistently gets paid in
full, on time--reveals how she does it, plus what she has learned in
other business arenas about essentials for keeping a small business
thriving when others are on the rocks. Make sure you get paid in
full, on time, without resorting to collection agencies or lawsuits.
Find out what you should know about your customers and where to get
the information. Discover ways to get even the biggest customers to
pay when they should. Learn techniques that small businesses can use
for "covering the float." Check out prospective employees or
partners, prevent theft inside your business, and get the right
insurance to protect your business. For any small business owner,
this book belongs among the most frequently needed how-to
references.
