There’s never been a better time to start a
business with no money. And this manifesto will show you how.
Description
You've heard it before—"pull yourself up by your bootstraps." But how can you put that idea into practice? Seth Godin offers ideas, tips, and plans to help you do just that. In The Bootstrapper's Bible, Godin, a bestselling author of business books, shares his story as well as tales of other bootstrappers' successes, providing wisdom and inspiration to would-be entrepreneurs of every stripe. Get smart about making your business work--after all, as Godin writes, "No one in this country has the right to a job. Every American, on the other hand, has the right to start his own business."

Best guide to start your business, or to realize you can't.
Level-headed, sobering guide to "what it really takes" to build your own business from scratch and watch it take off -- but more importantly, a guide to recognize whether or not one really fits the "enterpreneur" profile. This helped me avoid a big, costly, life-changing mistake, and for that alone I'm grateful I've picked this up.
