Product Description
Product Description
With so many start-ups struggling to survive beyond their first year of trading, what are the key things that will ensure a business makes the right start? Multi-million copy selling author Ken Blanchard returns with much-needed advice on how to create and sustain a successful business, delivered in the inimitable ONE MINUTE style. THE ONE MINUTE ENTREPRENEUR focuses on three key areas:
1. Finance and how to manage your money effectively 2. People and the importance of empowerment 3. Customers and how to take care of them
Why one minute you may ask? Well, in the words of Ken Blanchard, the best advice we ever received was given in less than a minute. THE ONE MINUTE ENTREPRENEUR contains all the short but meaningful insights that we've come to expect from this publishing phenomenon, delivered in a highly accessible way and with a splash of wry humour.

From the Publisher
I'm very proud to say I am Ken Blanchard's UK publisher for this book. I had the pleasure of hearing Ken speak at a conference recently and got to meet him afterwards. You might think a guy who has been around as long as Ken has might have said all he has to say already. Not a bit of it! Ken is as engaging and insightful as ever, and a great story-teller to boot. He knows how to keep an audience in the palm of his hand. You can clearly see why Ken has been inducted into the Amazon Hall of Fame as one of the 25 bestselling authors EVER! Quite an achievement. For all those budding entrepreneurs out there, I hope this book gives you the motivational lift you need to go and create the business you've always dreamed of. Let's not forget, that's exactly how Ken started out - by building the business of his dreams. It worked for him and it can work for you too. Enjoy, and please post your comments on the book here on Amazon once you've read it.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Summarizes Many Other Books in a Fable about a Public Speaking Business,
By Donald Mitchell "Jesus Loves You!" (Thanks for Providing My Reviews over 110,000 Helpful Votes Globally) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: The One Minute Entrepreneur: The Secret to Creating and Sustaining a Successful Business Edition: first (Hardcover)
Fables can be an effective way to communicate if the fable is based on something that everyone can relate to. If you make a living getting paid thousands of dollars for speaking just a few minutes, you'll really relate to this book. Oh, you don't do that? I guess the fable won't work as well if you run a pizza shop, clean drains, or sell bicycles.The book's second problem is that the authors are trying to cram in too much information. The One Minute Manager had three points in it. This book has dozens. As a result, you get lots of lists that you won't quite understand unless you've read all the other books referenced here. If you want to be an entrepreneur, my advice would be to skip this book and read something about what someone has done in your line of business that's not being duplicated near where you are. You'll understand that kind of book much better, and you'll get more benefit from your reading. I think that the wonderful Ken Blanchard is spreading himself too thin if he thought this was a well-done book that would help millions of entrepreneurs.

Little substance and very specific to genre,
By
This review is from: The One Minute Entrepreneur: The Secret to Creating and Sustaining a Successful Business (One Minute Manager) (Paperback)
Okay so its quick to read and the summarised points at the end of each chapter have value but the story and fictional characters are working in a very specific genre and a bit unbelievable. I endorse the comments of the other reviewers, better to read biographical accounts of sucessful entrepreneurs who have suceeded in several industries for modern day examples. Historically, I would recommend Napolean Hill as a good starting point for the millionaire mindset.
