Refreshing getting hands-on advise from someone who has actually built a business and not just the obvious scientific approach most business books are offering. I particularly like the quotes from other entrepreneurs and also the fact that many of the most successful people out there had a very rough start - but that is the reality for most people when you want to make something for yourself.

If you are thinking about making a business - I recommend you read though this book as part of your pre-journey - on top of it is FREE!

This is a truly great booklet which covers all important aspects of wanting to be a successful entrepreneur !

As one myself, I have come to appreciate how hard it is to make it "out there" and Mr. Milne's advise and encouragements are spot on and will certainly help new entrepreneurs to avoid the biggest mistakes and pitfalls.

The book and advise from Mr. Milne are to the point and kept short and precise and come from a person who obviously has done it and gone through the many difficult phases of entrepreneurship.

Well done !
