About this title

Synopsis

This is not one of those typical from-my-mother's-garage-to-billionaire business books. This is a small business book not readily found on shelves in your local bookstore or library.

This book speaks to the hundreds of thousands of present and future regular small business owners in need of practical advice and encouragement delivered with humour and real-life anecdotes. In other words, the huge majority of small businesses owners who are unlikely to appear on the evening news but who toil away daily because bread must be put in the table and children must be housed, clothed, and fed. And, hopefully, there will be fun along the way and a liveable retirement nest egg at the end.

See what some readers have said: "I loved the conversational, story-telling style, which is often funny and so very true."; "Really refreshing to read a down-to-earth observation of what it's like to run and survive the obstacles of small business."; "The tone is one of a learned pal chatting about his experiences with you over a coffee."; and "It's clever, concrete, funny and fresh."

Review

"There is such an incredible wealth of wisdom in this book -- and it's possible to just dip into a chapter (character) at a time. I loved the conversational, story-telling style, which is often funny and so very true. As a business owner/entrepreneur of many years, I can totally identify with and vouch for what Michael Best has to say." - Sylvia Malinowski, Small business owner & business coach, Somerset West, South Africa.

"Really refreshing to read a down to earth observation of what it's like to run and survive the obstacles of small business." - Gordon Robb, Investment banker & small business owner, Oakville, Canada.

"This book is highly consumable, easily digestible . . . it will resonate with anyone thinking about going into business. The tone is one of a learned pal chatting about his experiences with you over coffee . . . Michael Best is right there beside the reader the whole way and that is probably my favourite characteristic and perhaps most importantly too, it's fun to read." Neil Gardner, Fouber & President, Systematiq, Calgary, Canada.

"It's clever, concrete, funny and fresh! If you're thinking of strating a small business, or if you're already there, this book is for you. It contains all the practical advice you'll ever need." - Natalie Conyer, Writer and editor, Sydney, Australia.
