I don’t know why I’ve put off reading and reviewing this book. It’s one that was on my “must-read” list for some time. With its common-sense but unique approach to business management, most anyone can take something valuable from it. Even if you don’t manage anyone now, you may find it inspiring for life’s little challenges (and you’ll have a chance to win a copy!)

Is it possible that one of the reasons the restaurant business is so hard to succeed in, is because some new restaurant owners lack business sense? Possibly. In examining this angle, I learned six very important lessons about how to run a business – any business – by virtue of observing two slack restaurant owners in action. These business principles apply to much more than just restaurants. Run your business more like a business, and less like a playground, if you want to succeed.

Thinking about starting your own business but concerned about the economy? Feeling the pull of being your own boss but wondering if that could possibly be a good decision under the current circumstances? Then you'll be relieved to find out that 92% of existing entrepreneurs say they'd have started their business regardless of the economic climate. But how do you do it?

If you've never considered starting an internet business--but now that I mention it, it seems like a good idea--this is the book for you. If you've considered starting an internet business--but you've done no serious thinking about how to approach actually doing it--this is an excellent book.
