Worthless [Posted on 2005-10-07] The book is just a rehash of the User's Guide. It covers exactly the same topics with just a few extra words. It did not answer any industry specific questions that I could tell. Don't bother with this one.
Worthless [Posted on 2006-02-19] I agree with the other posting. I was hoping to leverage all SBA features as well as vaildate I was using the product correctly. This book was so incredibly basic it ceased to be of any value whatsoever. I am sending it back for a refund. Don't waste your money. Wait for a more advanced guide writen by a CPA or at least someone who understands business or accounting, not a part-time freelancer.
Step by Step M.S. Small Business Accounting 2006 [Posted on 2008-05-03] Curtis Frye and John Pierce have put together an excellent tutorial for its intended market. The market for this book appears to be small business person(s) with little or no accounting training. Business owner(s) that have grown enough that they have a few employees (two to ten) or are about to start employing a few people. They produce a product(s) or they wholesale products. For other categories of small business owners, the book is of limited value.
This book like all of the books that I have seen produced by Microsoft (MS) falls far short of helping the independent entrepreneurial spirit that is developing his business and has no employees as such. Business people like the authors of books, magazine writers, independent sales representatives, any independent professional, and many others. Although, Microsoft has a set of tools that can be used very successfully used in all of those endeavors, and many others I'm sure. In particular, MS Small Business Accounting, the subject of this book, tied into MS Office for Small Business with Contact Manager is of great potential value to these types of business people.
