More about the book[/title]
The book's blurb...

"Famous entrepreneurs such as Richard Branson, Stelios and Sahar Hashemi have all started businesses and thrived during a recession: could you be next? Despite the downturn, it's still a great time to start a business, with less competition and better deals for everything from inventory, advertising and rent.

We deliver essential information on how to start a business, make it a success, as well as advice on overcoming challenges including the changing economic outlook. Be inspired by start up stories, and learn tips from the experts: Which businesses do the best in a recession; Write a convincing business plan; Learn who is still lending finance, and what they're looking for; Locate the most reliable suppliers; Use techniques to make sure you get paid; Discover the best ways to promote your business; Attract customers and keep them coming back.

Startups.co.uk is the UK's most popular website for small businesses. Started by a successful entrepreneur, it has been helping people start their own business since 2000, and now helps over 150,000 people every month. Small business owners and new businesses consistently rate startups.co.uk as the leading source of information for UK entrepreneurs."

How will the people be chosen?

The 25 people who get a book will be picked at random (we've a special little computer programme to do it) and announced in next week's email (if you don't already get the email go to www.moneysavingexpert.com/tips).

When will I get the book?

The publisher providing these books will send them out directly though, to aid administration, this won't happen until all 25 winners have provided their name and address. So it may take a couple of weeks between the giveaway's end and actual receipt. This thread will be updated to let winners know when they have been sent out.
