Business Planning for Closely Held Enterprises

Business Planning for Closely Held Enterprises is a serious guide to the legal and tax side of private companies. It connects ownership, pay, taxes, family transfers, and the final sale or handoff. I like the way it treats those choices as one plan instead of separate piles of paper. The legal and tax detail is much heavier than most owners should handle themselves. Its value is helping an owner see the questions early and bring the right advisers into the room. A clean plan can prevent a good business from becoming a very complicated estate problem.
