Self-described serial entrepreneur Allan Woolway tells here how his own background and experiences helped him navigate business opportunities, balancing risk with perseverance and a positive attitude. But he has also chronicled the experiences of others, each with a unique entrepreneurial story.The book offers real-life examples of how small-business owners handled the many questions start-ups face - when and how to invest, borrow, commit, hire, fire, quote, get leads, exercise exit strategies, form partnerships, outsource, and buy or sell. There is much to learn from their adventures, both from what worked, and what didn't. While a number of the stories focus on the technology industry, where Woolway spent most of his career, the rest tell the tale of entrepreneurs engaged in a diverse group of business operations, restaurants, sports gear, logistics management, and warehousing among them.Follow the stories of those who have gone before you, the successful strategies they employed to overcome the pitfalls they faced, and get ready to take the plunge.
