StartupNation (www.startupnation.com), the fast-growing online community of entrepreneurs, and Yahoo! Small Business have signed a content agreement in an effort to provide guidance and resources to help people get their dream business started. Now, entrepreneurs visiting the Yahoo! Small Business Resource Center can easily access StartupNation’s “10 Steps to Open for Business” online resource.

StartupNation’s “10 Steps to Open for Business” simplifies the startup process for entrepreneurs with free, easy-to-use information on how to start a business via articles, audio clips, on-demand seminars, and various tools and templates.

“Our 10 Step plan has proven to be extremely effective in breaking down the process of starting a business – from life planning through selecting a business model, creating a business plan, finding funding, and marketing your product,” states Rich Sloan, StartupNation Co-founder. “Teaming up with Yahoo! will help us reach more of the 67% of all Americans* who dream of starting a business with this easy-to-follow roadmap.”

Jeff and Rich Sloan, entrepreneurial experts and co-hosts of the nationally-syndicated StartupNation Radio program, created “10 Steps to Open for Business” as an online companion to their book, “StartupNation: Open for Business.”

“Hundreds of thousands of people come to the Yahoo! Small Business Resource Center to find information and services about how to start a business,” states Rich Riley, General Manager of Yahoo! Small Business. “Given that StartupNation is an influential voice in the small business community, we know that our visitors will benefit from their expertise.”
