Secondly, for those of you who are unfamiliar with purchasing books online, in most cases when you buy a used book you can actually pick up a new book. What do I mean by this? Thirdparty resellers or bookshops often sell their new books in the used section of online bookstores. Thirdly, I would like to share with you some profound wisdom that a good friend shared with me to help clear up the differ ence between a used book and a new book, “the content is all the same.” (Note: if two of the three things I mentioned here appear to be repetitive from the section above about borrowing a book, well guess what? You’re absolutely right. Repetition is the mother of skill.) The following are web sites worth looking into: • Half Price Books (http://www.halfpricebooks.com/) - I think the name speaks for itself. This site offers books at low cost. •
Hamiltonbook (http://www.hamiltonbook.com/) - this is another helpful site in finding discounted books.
•
Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/) - this is an obvious choice in shopping for books. Remember to check out the used book section.
•
EBay (http://www.ebay.com/) -this is a great alternative to going to thrift stores or secondhand bookstores.
Great so now what Fantastic, so now you have your books in order and hopefully ordered, where do you go from here? Funny you should ask. Considering that this chapter is about creating a business plan I’m going to share with you some tips and resources to help expedite the process.
