Well I honestly don't know how much a lot of those books could help a small business person starting out. They tend to be good reference material but they dont hammer at what they need to know.
1) sell something for more than it cost you to buy. Don't forget that the gross has to cover your period costs. 2) be careful of expanding too fast and tying up all your cash in inventory/capital goods. That sinks a lot of people. 3) Figure out who your selling to, don't try to be all things to all people.

I didn't say they were all successful.
The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."

Pretty much always, "Keep it Simple Stupid" works as the best teaching philosopy.

How about this. I will reset to zero the post count of the next five posters to this thread. Think that will stop the posting?

I think the winner will be the person who makes the 2500th post after which the thread has to be locked.

ohhh ohhhh I know some great team building exercises.
So everyone gets two minutes to talk about themselves and the team takes notes. Then after collating all of them the talker gets down on his/her knees in front of the team spokesperson, who tells her/him 10 positive ajectives about that they've learned about that person. This process is repeated for the whole team.

I vote we boot Tamper Lad from the thread because all he does is traumatize us with team building and plans of DOOM.
