61/100
👎 Skip It
The CPA-and-host format gives this real practical grounding — Sue Bishop's 500-plus small-business clients lend it credibility on entity choice and basic recordkeeping. But it's a 2016 release covering tax and registration rules that shift yearly, so treat the specifics as a starting point and verify current numbers elsewhere; the dual-voice narration itself is easy, plain-spoken listening.
✦ Penny’s Take — this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read — not a page-by-page personal one. The gold ✓ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
▶ Listen to a sample
🎙 Narration: fine Host-plus-CPA interview format (Mark Herlinger and Sue Bishop) reads as informational rather than dramatized; pacing and polish couldn't be independently verified.
