Smarter Than Me — Edward Wright
Owning and operating a business can be a lot of work for little return but it can also be a hugely rewarding experience filled with excitement and money beyond your wildest dreams. Which way will your business go? Your success or failure depends on many things; but in the end it all depends on YOU!
I've been a businessman for over forty years. I've gone broke and made millions; thankfully in that order. By the grace of God and two good parents, who worked for the Arlington School District in Poughkeepsie , New York, I got through High School.
That was the end of my formal education, but in life you get two types of education; the one you're given in a classroom and the one you get for yourself.
After high school I became a student of business and was lucky enough to have great mentors. I've always had an insatiable will to learn business/sales techniques but most importantly I've had the ability to apply what I have learned.
Many business owners life savings are tied up in their business. While most people look at their homes as a major retirement investment, the businessperson might be using it as collateral and have it at risk. With so much at risk, you want to learn everything you can about your business.
This book is hopefully the start of your ongoing business education. There is an old saying, “Things are twice as hard to get out of ….than into.” So don't get into a business without learning everything you can before investing your time and money.
Most new business owners take the time to learn something about starting a business, some have learned a bit about how to run a business but very few take the time to know how to profitable exit a business. I have examined many business strategies and tried several and I can assure you that it is difficult to succeed without learning all phases of business. I have gained the knowledge to help guide you through the process of profitably starting your business, running your business, expanding your business and exiting your business when you choose.
Let me share with you what I've learned after my many business experiences.
