Book Description
Being an entrepreneur is scary. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, more than 50 percent of small businesses fail in the first year and 95 percent fail within the first five years. And often, the future of the business can ride on one crucial decision.

The Ugly Truth about Small Business is a collection of stories and lessons from 50 entrepreneurs who faced crises in their businesses. A unique business inspiration book, The Ugly Truth about Small Business tackles head-on the problems entrepreneurs face:

--We didn't know if anyone would show up

--My customer wouldn't pay us

--I lost 25 percent of my business in one day

--Do what you believe despite the odds

Each story ends with the lessons that each entrepreneur took from their experience, and how to apply that to any business. A great self-purchase or gift that tomorrow's leaders need as they start up today.
