The Bootstrapper-s Bible - Volume 1

5 stars (On my way and feel much more confident...) - Some book readings are affected greatly by your mood (well at least that's how I feel about advice book or self help book). That's how, sometimes, my opinions differ from the other Amazon.com's reviewers. The Bootstrapper's Bible is not one of them. This book certainly changed my entrepreneur outlook. I felt more confident knowing all the common senses and common mistakes that entrepreneurs should or should not make in the first place. I encouraged two important people in my life to read this "short e-booklet"; my brother (the bravest entrepreneur in the world) and my best friend (a born to be entrepreneur, but hasn't gathered all his courages to be one), hoping that they can be more succesful and more confident. Describing this e-booklet in this review would be an insult to Mr. Seth Godin, because the e-booklet is short (65 pages), very easy to read, and very cheap. Buy it (it's cost lest than 3 bucks) and let me know what you think. 4 stars (A word to the wise) - This book gives the reader wisdom and insight in things to think about before you start a business. Mr. Godin's willingness to share his experiences is greatly appreciated by this reader. 5 stars (Excellent book) - This book is an example of what a business book should be -- plain advice about how to go about starting and running a business. Seth Godin's book is the equivelant of having a very experienced business advisor to assist you. This is not a book about conceptual business ideals, this is a practical guide to managing the important aspects of business - cash flow, revenue, sales, etc. ...
