Fantastic, straightforward guide

I loved this audiobook. It covered so many topics in an easy and engaging manner. Highly recommend it to anyone wanting to plunge into entrepreneurship. It covers everything from idea, to market positioning, pricing, taxes, business structure marketing and more. While this topic can get a bit boring this audiobook kept me engaged the whole time. Especially thanks because of the amazing narrator.

Great guide!

This is a great guide to not only motivate you start your own business but also give you the know how how to make it a reality. There is a surprising amount of content packed into it.

Inspiration for Small Business Entrepreneurs

Loved this inspirational how-to for entrepreneurs entering the world of small business. Expert reality-based advice from Lee Merritt is friendly and encouraging with clear step-by-step instructions throughout. Christopher Orlando's narration is lively and engaging, and he proceeds at a good pace. The language is colorful with great metaphors that bring in a bit of humor. From overcoming fears and roadblocks, identifying new opportunities to grow, to winning social media marketing techniques, the path to success is laid out like an adventure. Highly recommend. I took a lot of notes, and will be using these ideas to help me grow my small business as an indie publisher.

Solid advice

There are many useful tips and pointers from someone who's succeeded in business in this audiobook. It's a useful guide in terms of helping you identify a potential opportunity and then gain clarity about how you could tap that market. It's an honest and insightful guide. If anything, I would like the narrator to just speak it out as if talking to me individually more....perhaps would have been better if the author himself did it. Having said that, the information is very good.
