126 Steps to Becoming a Successful Entrepreneur
Allegedly, every tenth American runs their own business.
But a follow-up story discloses that 76.2% of businesses that had no employees accounted for merely 4% of SMB sales.
As the memory of the 2008 financial recession fades away and the stories of funded startups crossing the 1 billion dollar mark, both regular workers and college students dream about running a successful business, relieved from the boredom of their corporate job or a life spent in a cubicle while paying off debts and mortgages.
"126 Steps to Becoming a Successful Entrepreneur" paints a different portrait of the startup ecosystem and the reality of "being your own boss".
Mario Peshev, a global WordPress influencer and a business advisor, leading a multinational consultancy, reveals the reality of exchanging a 40-hour work week and a steady paycheck for 80-100 hours at the office for years to come, grinding through the struggles of generating sales, managing staff, juggling accounting and legal, designing scalable processes.
This no-BS take on the startup world challenges the fad around becoming an overnight success and projects the reality for starting entrepreneurs during their first 6-18 months in the game.
Through a series of 126 questions asked by students, blue-collar workers, and starting entrepreneurs, this book will cover a number of key topics for everyone eager to quit their job and start their own business:
- Introduction to Entrepreneurship
- Advice for Entrepreneurs
- Don'ts for Entrepreneurs
- Common Questions About Entrepreneurship
- Strategic Tips for Entrepreneurs
- Industry-Specific Niche Startup Advice
This may be your best investment to date. If you start, make sure you're prepared for the battle. Otherwise, study the art of entrepreneurship and get back to the drawing board until you are ready to pivot.
