Business that Grows and
Think About It… A poorly designed small business makes a horrible boss. Why would you start a business, only to become a slave to it? Would you want to buy your own business right now? If not, why would anyone else? Inside these pages you’ll find how to:

Awhile back, I attended a presentation by a small start-up technology company with a group of fellow investor entrepreneurs and VCs. After being bombarded once again for 45 minutes with "pie in the sky" projections, and the millionth variation of statements like “No one is doing what we’re doing” or “No one can do what we are doing”, it confirmed for me that the rationale and reasoning among many small business entrepreneurs for starting and growing their company - was indeed flawed. The model is broken, which is the reason why 80% of small businesses fail in the first 2 years. I walked over and said a few words to the visibly nervous CEO who had just made the presentation. Intuitively, I could see through the rhetoric that he was passionate about his product, but was unable to position it, trying to anticipate potential questioning. Even more problematic however, was that he was unable to articulate:
I was able to share with him a few of my own entrepreneurial experiences to put his own business into perspective. I was then able to get him to be more in touch with his authenticity and gave him some ideas to bring that out. His resulting optimism started me down a path that I truly have a passion and commitment for today – disseminating proven and practical steps to success, while mentoring others to excel.
The question is: What did I say to him? How did I do it? It's not uncommon for me now to go out into my community, get involved with small business entrepreneurs, and get them to re-focus on a strategic blueprint that will have their business serve them, not the other way around – while delivering quality services and products that enhances the community. If you had told me 7 years ago that I would:
I would not have believed you. I have to mention one more thing: I'm a regular guy. No, I did not attend Harvard, nor do I have an MBA. In fact, I did attend NYU, received my B.A., but did not take a single business course – my mother had visions of me as a cardiac surgeon so I graduated with a degree in Biology! So how did I go from a college degree and a short sighted wish to be a physician - to launch from initiation to acquisition, several profitable companies? How did I succeed when others failed?

I know that you want to be successful with your business. Every small business entrepreneur does. But what do most small business owners do about it? They become a slave to their businesses. When things start to go wrong, they run their business intending to sell it. They drown themselves in operational problems working harder and harder, thinking that they ARE the business, that the business would not exist without them. And just about every small business owner I’ve ever talked to would like to have more skills and success when it comes to business. But here's the interesting part: Most small business owners won't take the time to learn how to be successful in their business. They just won't get themselves out of the mindset of “working xx hours to make xx dollars”. It's as if they had a blueprint for failure conditioned within: "An honest hard day’s work for an honest hard days pay" or "If you're not working in your business, then you’re not in control of your business." Well I'm here to tell you that these ideas are B.S.!

It’s no wonder that most business owners I speak to have a lack of stability, a lack of a sense of where they are going! During (and after) the time I spent (over 20 years) in building and selling businesses, I went on a personal mission to learn more from other successful entrepreneurs and coaches, and spent years reading and studying many of the books, tapes, and seminars on how to be successful in business. There were sincere, authentic professionals whose goal was to help their clients be successful. But the frustrating part was that many produced material from a theoretical or academic standpoint, without having ever tried or tested them in a real small business environment. Have you ever looked at some of the ‘How to Start Your Own Business’ websites and self-help books being promoted by coaches and consultants? Many seem to follow the same clichés and reasoning like ‘write a plan before you start’, ‘ask friends and relatives for help’. This advice is great, and should be considered, but how does a successful small business act? What is its culture?

I also cover in detail, the key elements of any successful business start-up:
The sad truth is that most small business start-ups give up and never have the kind of success or income that they envisioned originally —these entrepreneurs quit and settle for a corporate job. That isn't what they REALLY want—or worse—they might settle for mediocrity in their business.

I've spent the last 20 years experiencing first hand:
I have been successful, but also made mistakes along the way, and learned from these experiences in creating a strategy of what works, and what doesn’t. I have invested in, and performed due diligence on, several small businesses in the past few years. I am an advisor to an investment banking group and have also been involved in a few recent IPOs. For a long time my associates have been watching me mentor several small businesses, and saying "You have to write a book... You have to write about your experiences..." So that's what I've done. I've taken the time to write down my experiences and everything that I've learned and discovered in my new book – and synthesized all of this into a plain, easy-to-understand language. The goal is to save the small business owner time and money in building his or her operation. A good friend of mine showed me how to publish the book online and make it available to you for instant download.
