Assume Your Market is People Like You, Then Fail

Face reality. As an entrepreneur, you should assume none of your customers is like you, yet I find that most entrepreneurs assume just the opposite.

What are accounting and bookkeeping?

Read ‘Painting with Numbers.’ Please.

If you’re doing investment pitches, you should read this book. If you’re doing a pitch I’m going to see, I want you to have read this book.
