ENTREPRENEUR! - Can I Be One? - Bob Foster - Bog

According to recent information, most new businesses quickly fail! Why is that?
"ENTREPRENEUR!-Can I Be One?" tackles this question head-on and provides action steps you can take to avoid that outcome. This book does not tell you how to start a business-it helps you determine when, or if, you should start a business.
Foster's book presents the premise that most small businesses fail because the business owner was unaware of what is required to be a successful entrepreneur. Entrepreneurship is a demanding taskmaster and every business owner, and aspiring entrepreneur, should know what would likely be required of them.
"ENTREPRENEUR!-Can I Be One?" helps you determine whether you currently have the "right stuff" to be an entrepreneur-or whether you need to work some more on preparing yourself before starting a business. In this book you'll discover:
The "real" definition of Entrepreneur. Whether entrepreneurs are born-or made. How to handle fear of failure. The Characteristics of an entrepreneur. The "Entrepreneur Test." The "secret" to being a successful entrepreneur. Facts about home and Internet Entrepreneurs. How to answer the question: Can I be an entrepreneur?
As an added bonus, "ENTREPRENEUR!" provides a look at several famous entrepreneurs who started with nothing and became highly successful.
It is written by Bob Foster, an experienced entrepreneur, turnaround specialist, and investor, and is based on the author's actual experience-not just from books or a classroom.
This is a book that should be read by anyone contemplating starting a business, as swell as those who are in business and wondering why things are not going the way they thought they would. It is one of Bob Foster's small business Primer Series books, where a primer is defined as any book of elementary principles.
