Duncan Bannatyne is that person and he's here to help you. 43 MISTAKES will make sure you avoid the most common business howlers, and is just as relevant if you are a sole trader on the high street or a bond trader in the City.

excellent purchase 21 Aug 2011
Format:Paperback
I leafed through this book in the airport and decided to purchase it on Amazon as I thought it made interesting reading. The book is easy to read and makes very interesting reading for both the seasoned business owner ( should they be a sole trader or owner of an SME) and the budding entrepreneur. Duncan sites good examples to the failures and fixes drawing on both his own pesonal experiences and that which he has learned from the Dragons Den.

Would definitely recommend this book especiallly for anyone thinking of starting their own business.

taking chances 13 Sep 2011
By crystal
Format:Paperback
I read one review where the reviewer wrote: "He also devotes just three pages to 'sensitivity analysis' and this could be expanded greatly and cover the general field of assessing risk and a company's susceptibility to risk." Well for me this book represents taking chances and exactly as the author did when he took his first business opportunity further, this book is in that same direction. I suppose if the inventors of Facebook never took a chance for fear of failure then we wouldn't have Facebook.

Common sense
It was an easy read, a lot of common sense; but like most common sense, it needs to be applied. I have lent the book now to some one in a struggling business- hope they apply it.
