 Term Sheets and Valuations: A Line by Line Look at the Intricacies of Term Sheets and ValuationsBy Alex Wilmerding Buy Now » Too often entrepreneurs spend a lot of time and money developing products and services that slightly or even grossly miss the sweet spot of the market. What is cool to the innovator may not be worthy of a customer's attention let alone precious cash. This book is really not written for entrepreneurs but corporate types, yet TakeCommand recommends it because of its disciplined approach to evaluating what customers in any given market are really willing to purchase. Preferably, entrepreneurs will learn this time-saving, money-saving information while they are developing a first business plan rather than after a product has been developed, packaged and now collecting dust on a store shelf. If you want to avoid that nasty 'ah-ha' moment, buy this book.

 The Essentials of Finance and Accounting for Non-Financial ManagersBy Edward Fields Buy Now » 9 out of 10 startup businesses fail to celebrate their fifth anniversary. TakeCommand believes that these companies don't sink because of a lack of effort but a lack of managerial efficiency. Making one-time sales to hundreds or even thousands of customers doesn't set a company up for long term success. However, working hard to attract and retain customers that will buy repeatedly is very much the mark of a winning business. Customer Loyalty presents many useful strategies for managing productive, repeat customer relationships. Read this book before you write your business plan. It might change your thinking about what customers really are the most desirable customers.
