Select five qualities you associate strongly to entrepreneurship – you have listed the risk-taking, passion, income, vision, boredom… yes, boredom! If you didn ‘t include last, still think, it’ s one of the main factors that led to a new race – the periodic entrepreneur. An entrepreneur has a periodic years doesn ‘t do things in half measures. (One or the other, or it just doesn ‘t get it!) The start and go from one business to another part of its genetic makeup. First, there ‘s the entrepreneur periodic race that flirts with business after business, leaving a fair share of successes and failures, and the other is more challenging or a contractor-director hybrid (depending on how you choose to watch), which excludes the legs more than one business in one round. But both are joined at the hip when it comes to a characteristic – they never know when (or perhaps the word is “how”) to stop. Most entrepreneurs periodic professeront their aversion to manage day to day affairs that they were only too happy to start. While they are enthusiastic and naive about the challenges of a new beginning – describing the vision, raising funds and drawing up action plans, they seem to lose a little when she came to take their business to the next level. And when the novelty of the commencement door in the distance, that ‘s when the entrepreneur Bolts periodic publication of the stable! Even those who choose to stay with multiple business long after the initial stage, hire a team of managers capable providing the perfect foil to their own “non-managerial”; Person. It ‘s also rare to find a periodic entrepreneur with a passion for a product or a particular industry – that’ s almost a contradiction in terms. However, this race has its strong views on subjects qualified most important – the result, growth potential or margin, for example. The most admit they don ‘t really care what gadget they do, as they earn some nice money! If you ‘; about a periodic aspiring entrepreneur, you might like to take a few lessons from those who have been there, done that. You must optimize resources. The advantage to start the second or third business is that the former can help you get an advantage. Take resources such as cash, or IT infrastructure, for example. Don ‘t reproduce them through companies – accroissez your existing sales staff to be sold through; establish a website group rather than individual company sites, and the cartel’s administrative functions like recruitment and accounting. This becomes easier. Each experience will take up two or three notches. A previous history of installing a company will add credibility which is so essential to opening new doors. Be prepared to spend. The failure is probably more important part of entrepreneurship periodic success. While you don ‘t have to wait with interest to him, don’ t fear it either; certainly don ‘t be discouraged by it.

Poor planning is one of the most common causes of small business failure. Get this book to help you avoid poor planning!,
I liked this book. It is full of content and it is well-written. It seems to be an updated version of a smiliarly titled book the author wrote back in 2004. See “The Accidental Entrepreneur” with ISBN: 0975977806. The 2008 version has a new chapter added – the 7th in the following list of chapter titles:
1. Introduction
2. What is an entrepreneur, anyway?
3. Ready, set, go!
4. Taking care of business
5. What do you bring to the party?
6. Market and sell your socks off
7. Get connected to the Web for profit
8. Making room for more business
The author is a self-employed business coach and mentor to wanta-be entrepreneurs. Basically she does for pay what I do for free as a SCORE volunteer. Most of what she discusses in her book is what I discuss with my SCORE clients. About the only thing we differ on is the extent to which a person should put effort into preparing a business plan. The author suggests that the entrepreneur should not go overboard on preparing a plan. Whereas I believe great time and effort should be put into dreaming, consolidating, researching, writing, proofing, and editing the 25-35 page written business plan for a startup. Maybe we differ because the author seems to separate a business plan from a marketing plan? And she seems to emphasize in her book how important a marketing plan is to a small business. In fact, she devotes all of Chapter 6 to it. And now that she has added Chapter 7, she has TWO chapters devoted to small business marketing. I, on the other hand, consider marketing plans to be a subset of a business plan.
The book gets its name from the fact that the author at one point in her life sought career counseling and almost overnight she became an “accidental entrepreneur” by starting her own business coach and mentor firm. In this book we are told what many wanta-be entrepreneurs need to hear about the realities of starting a small business. By reading this book the wanta-be entrepreneur will be able to avoid making mistakes in starting their venture, and do many things correctly.
I would have liked the book better if the “Target Your Market” section at page 58 had been a little more developed. I found the coverage to be kind of weak frankly. I particularly liked the coverage of “Which business structure is best for you” at page 40. And my favorite parts or chapters of the book were 6 and 7 regarding marketing and self-promotion. I also enjoyed reading the section on “Minding your Ps and Qs” which stressed the importance of planning. Poor planning is one of the most common causes of business failure. And without good planning it is difficult to be persistent in a meaningful way. So mind your Ps and Qs. 5 stars!

|Don’t start your business without it,
I really like this book and as an entrepreneur cannot stress enough how helpful this book would have been to me when I started my business many years ago
This book is for those of us who woke up one morning and found ourselves owning our own business. Funny as it sounds isn’t that what happens? I know that many of you in the rep business for example were sales people with real jobs for many years and then for a number of reasons: company cut backs, a principal who offered to set us up in business if we would agree to represent him or we went to work for a large rep firm and ended up either running it or splitting off to start our own firm. Others of us got an idea that we were passionate enough about to go out on that limb and risk everything to “follow the dream” Whatever the reason we became entrepreneurs…accidentally. So here we are, what do we do now?
We pick up and read Susan Urquhart- Brown’s book The Accidental Entrepreneur that’s what we do if were smart. This book is filled with as she says 50 things I wish someone had told me about starting a business. Fifty very valuable things I might add. Here are some examples:
* Eight questions to ask before you start a business. This is an excellent chapter on defining yourself, your business and your goals.
* Avoid seven common pitfalls in business. Basically this is:
o Know what you sell before you sell it
o Know what it will take to succeed
o How to use connections and so on.
As well as a number of other chapters presenting a real meat and potatoes approach to starting and running your own business.
What I enjoy are the examples the author uses to make her point and demonstrate how others have succeeded using her experience and direction. These include the story of Mary Foley and Cheryl Thompson who started [...] (great name!) an online club for business women who want to be “outrageously in charge” of their lives.
And
David Riklan the owner of Self-Improvement online Inc. talks about his ” Crossroads in business” which is the books term for the time when he knew he was ready to leave the safety of his corporate job and strike out on his own. By the way this was after five years of working evenings and weekends to start his business.
This book is just filled with stories about people just like you and me who struck out on their own and started their own business.
Reading The Accidental Entrepreneur provides us with not only great examples and guidelines of how to be a successful entrepreneur but it also provides something even more valuable. It provides through us with passion and inspiration to strike out and succeed in our own businesses. I like that. I like that a lot.
This is the best $[...] you’ll ever spend on your business. Hit the business section and pick it up right now.

|The Accidental Entrepreneur: Well-Worth Reading for Experienced and Prospective Entrepreneurs,
As an entrepreneur for the past decade, I find that I have to do so many different things to keep my business thriving. At times, it can be quite overwhelming to know what to do next. The Accidental Entrepreneur is an excellent guide for navigating the many decisions that I need to make.
This book is also particularly useful for prospective entrepreneurs who are trying to decide what business opportunities to pursue as well as how to turn entrepreneurial dreams into a reality without wasting time and money. Author Susan Urquhart-Brown has a clear writing style that flows nicely. She mixes sensible advice and real-world examples quite adroitly.
The Accidental Entreprenuer is definitely a keeper for my business library!
