Starting a small business and making it a success isn’t easy. In fact, most small business owners don’t get rich and many fail. This book presents the straight truth on small business success. It doesn’t offer cure-alls for every small business. Instead, it outlines real, effective principles for continued small business growth and success. Written by business growth expert Steven Little, The 7 Irrefutable Rules of Small Business Growth skips empty small business positivism in exchange for real-world, practical solutions. If you’re a small business owner or an entrepreneur just starting out, you’ll find answers to all your most important questions on topics such as technology, business plans, hiring, and much more.

While the end of "The 7 Irrefutable Rules of Small Business Growth" offers some unique insights, I felt that I could have got the gist of the author's message from a well written blog. The 7 rules are relatively straightforward and not hard to understand or implement. This is a good "beginners" guide to business.
I wish I had read this book BEFORE i started my business. Very practical and "dummy's guide" approach. Any entrepreneur should read this book, just follow it!!!
