How to be an Expat Entrepreneur,
By Anne Huscroft (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Expat Entrepreneur: How to create and maintain your own portable career anywhere in the world (Paperback)
This inspiration guide is essential hand luggage for the thousands of people who move overseas for work or pleasure, or those already residing abroad.If you are the spouse of an expatriate employee, wanting to maintain your professional identity despite frequent upheaval, or, if you have moved to a foreign land and are thinking of working for yourself, this book is for you. By the time you reach your destination, you will be armed with the tools necessary to choose a business idea that works for you, adopting the right mindset and skills to aid success. Practical advice on developing a portable career by choosing something you enjoy, rather than just using the skills you have is discussed. Understandably, motivation remains easier if you develop the right mindset. From the outset, the author challenges whether "you have what it takes" to get started. Thought-provoking sections on "what makes an entrepreneur?" describe the drive and determination needed by finding inspiration for your business, creating a venture, and then developing a portable career through effective marketing. The practicalities of success are explained in a helpful, straightforward manner that makes anyone feel they can achieve something similar. The importance of networking is clear. International entrepreneurs share their own circumstances and information about building and maintaining successful and rewarding, portable careers in all four corners of the world. Extensive links and tips from 35 countries are listed providing excellent practical resources to get started.

pretty interesting but fairly general,

This review is from: Expat Entrepreneur: How to create and maintain your own portable career anywhere in the world (Paperback)
The book is a collection of expats who have done their thing in various countries which is interesting and somewhat inspiring. However they are in a wide range of countries and so if you have a particular country in mind this book won't be able to help with the logistics of setting up in that location really.

This review is from: Expat Entrepreneur: How to create and maintain your own portable career anywhere in the world (Paperback)
You're in a foreign country, perhaps as a trailing spouse, or you've arrived somewhere where your old job skills are no longer relevant...it's hardly the time to become your own boss, right ? Wrong. This book explains how being an expat and being an entrepreneur truly go hand-in-hand.The book really encourages the reader to look for the inner entrepreneur, and focus on the skills and strengths that enable him or her to maintain a flexible and, importantly, portable career. It offers an in-depth section on the traits of entrepreneurs. There are clear steps and questions to allow the reader to examine his own strengths and weaknesses with a view to being self-employed. The book not only inspires, but also provides extensive resources to equip the reader for further investigation on his own.
