Product Description

Product Description
If you are starting a business, or considering doing so, BusinessWise is the book for you. A collaboration amongst over 20 business experts, this book looks at the whole process of setting up a new business with success in mind. It covers a wide range of topics including business set up and vision, marketing (including using the internet), selling, finance, working in and managing teams, working from home and beating procrastination, networking internationally, getting the right message out in the right language, health and fitness and collaboration. The authors, all life members of the network Ecademy.com, are experts in their subject area and have shared many tips and ideas here that they would normally only reveal in training sessions or paid consultancy. The result is a book that provides insights and guidance to new or potential business people as well as existing business owners. Read it with a pencil or highlighter to hand. You'll need it! Starting up in business is fraught with pitfalls and problems. The rewards of a successful business, however, outweigh the risk. I want to see many more successful Chief Executives and this book provides valuable help from a number of entrepreneurs that have succeeded. Brian Chernett, Founder and Chief Executive of The Academy for Chief Executives I've been an entrepreneur for many years and believe in encouraging more people to find their passion and pursue it. I'm pleased to see this book also encourages the idea that entrepreneurs can succeed and provides practical advice to help them do that. As a long-term supporter of Ecademy and a life member there myself, I'm delighted to recommend this book. Mike Southon, Co-Author of 'The Beermat Entrepreneur' and other business books, Sales on a Beermat. I have always believed that if you put people together, magic will happen. The right people will find each other and work together. New ideas and projects will be born. This book is proof of that. The authors met through networking on Ecademy and have used mostly electronic communications to develop this collaborative book. Each of the authors is brilliant at what they do - together they have produced a formidable business book. Thomas Power, Chairman, Ecademy.com

5.0 out of 5 stars BusinessWise starts and ends with collaboration..., 25 May 2007
By Lady C. Hamilton-Fford (Camberley, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I received a copy of BusinessWise just a few days ago and have found it insightful, useful and helpful, especially for anyone starting in or thinking about starting a business.

This book not only covers the basic elements but elucidates on elements rarely spoken about... like collaboration. We see examples of collaboration everywhere but there aren't too many books that have the topic covered so plainly and with so much encouragement and good advice. Many thanks for taking the time and sharing your wisdom.

Many other topics are covered as well. From dreaded topics like finance to marketing and communication, from what it means to have a vision and then how to bring that vision to life, to planning and sales and the internet... BusinessWise is a comprehensive volume.

I have found it especially helpful to dive into sections that are current to me now and know that I have a reference source to use as needed.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is Awesome!, 7 Jun 2007
It's great to get a perspective from so many contributors who write such "easy to understand" yet "extremely informative" words.
My favorite chapter is "The Spirit of Collaboration" by Tom Evans, a highly respected member of Ecademy. His words of wisdom make so much sense to me.. it almost feels like he knows my own thoughts really well.

This is definately a "MUST BUY" book for anyone with a small business and BIG ambitions.
Thankyou to all concerned.

5.0 out of 5 stars Little gem, 13 Jul 2007
By John E. Jones - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Businesswise is not only an excellent book for sole traders and entrepreneurs, it is essential reading. Whether you've been in business for a long time or just starting out, the amount of detail and wisdom entountered here is staggering. Each chapter is clearly laid out and easily readable. I particularly like its holistic approach, where everything from networking to looking after your health is taken into consideration. This should be a best seller.
