About the Author
Business Crib-Notes was written by a self-taught, high school educated businessman who started working at 14 years old cleaning parking lots, worked in supermarkets, was an inside manager at an electric wholesaler, built a family explosives sales and manufacturing business, ran an international explosives division for a major USA corporation, invented and globally patented a commercially successful industrial-scale electro-chemical wastewater treatment device… and finally retired by selling this company to my employees and managers.
I did not go to business school. You don’t need to either. My goal now is to pass on decades of REAL WORLD, in-the-trenches business startup strategies, operations strategies, negotiating strategies, legal and accounting strategies, pricing and advertising strategies to ambitious and courageous first-timers operating in regional home-town markets.
This book is written in clear, approachable language for everyone. It will be especially helpful to people who wish to enter the trades, start an online business, a retail storefront, or a local service business.
All of the Crib-Notes strategies are focused on doing one thing for you: positioning your business efforts to win big, and then either selling or passing on your business to family.
You can do it! Make Business Crib-Notes your first and smartest investment.
