Sure, you can find all sorts of high-level strategic tips from Fortune 500 CEOs. But what if you own a restaurant, and you're trying to figure out how to source good fish, or if you're looking to increase revenue from your plumbing supply store? You'll be running a lot of Google searches before you hear from someone who's actually stood in your shoes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLongtime Square executives Jackie Reses and Lauren Weinberg want to change this. So they reached out across the country, talking to dozens of entrepreneurs with valuable businesses--and invaluable advice. This book is the product of that research. Part starter-kit, part encyclopedia, part inspiration, \u003ci\u003eSelf-Made Boss \u003c\/i\u003eis filled with information not just about who these small business owners are, but how they built their companies, step by step. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHow did they get their start? When did they decide to hire more staff? How did they set a course for growth? And when problems arose, how did they fight through them? You'll hear from a second-generation ice cream shop owner on how to manage price increases; an oyster farmer finding new ways to stay afloat in the middle of a global pandemic; a roofer who refused to be denied or defined by her race and gender--and dozens of other small business owners making a big difference in their communities. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNo matter the size of your business today--or where you're thinking about taking the jump tomorrow--you'll find answers you can apply right away. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBecause there's a common purpose that all small business owners share: the drive to build something from the ground up; the relentless pursuit of turning obstacles into opportunities and roadblocks into stepping stones. It's tough and messy, hard-fought and hard-won. And above all, it's something you can't have when you work anywhere else--or for anyone else. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThat's what it means to be a Self-Made Boss. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jackie Reses, Lauren Weinberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McGraw-Hill Companies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/22\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 5.98w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781264264094\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2021 pg. 7","brand":"McGraw-Hill Companies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43657527427225,"sku":"9781264264094","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0572\/3367\/0297\/files\/img_22292081-bb67-40fb-ab35-44a154775643.jpg?v=1724520832","url":"https:\/\/bookmarksretail.store\/products\/self-made-boss-advice-hacks-and-lessons-from-small-business-owners","provider":"Bookmarks Retail","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
