Businesses fail for a lot of reasons. The biggest one, however, is the owner's lack of understanding of their personal decision-making skills, who they are, or who they should be inside their organization. Running a business is both an art and a science. If you are only good at one of them, or in the worst case, neither, you will most likely become one of the 65 percent of people who fail.

During economic contractions, it becomes much more difficult to sell your products, maintain your customer base, and gain market share. Mistakes become more costly, and failure becomes a real possibility for all those who are not able to make the transition. But imagine being able to sell your products when others cannot, being able to take market share from your competitors, and knowing the precise formulas that would allow you to expand your sales while others make excuses.

Rather, says veteran company-builder Norm Brodsky, there's a mentality that helps street- smart entrepreneurs solve problems and pursue opportunities as they arise. Brodsky shares his hard-earned wisdom every month in Inc. magazine, in the hugely popular "Street Smarts" column he cowrites with Bo Burlingham.

This concept of "being your own boss" is undoubtedly an alluring one. Nonetheless, not everyone can be a boss - not one decent or effective, at least. If you are actually an employee of someone (not a boss), it is perfectly natural to fantasize about owning a business of your own on those days when you are fed up with your current boss or work. The rags-to-rich stories you hear about entrepreneurs who have turned their visions into millions or even billions of dollars, make your fantasy even more attractive.

Practical Guidance
I received a review copy of this audiobook.
The advice in this book makes sense and is consistent with similar advice i have read or received in the past without feeling like it has nothing new to offer.
The book begins with a warning that this book is not for everyone, and proceeded to disqualify me from its target audience, but that doesn't mean it wasn't helpful or that it wouldn't be even moreso for others.
My biggest difficulties came from the format as an audiobook. I found the narration unpleasant, reminiscent of a very pushy former acquaintance. Many of the accounting suggestions lost me as the narrator rattled off strings of numbers in quick succession. Fortunately, each time a visual aid is either necessary or helpful, you are directed to the free resources on the website www.whenfridayisntpayday.com.
On the whole, this book was worth listening to, and I may revisit it should I ever find myself in the position of actually starting a new business.

still listening to this book and so far it feels as though someone is reading a text book from school. the narrator tone is very good but the content is very boring.
