At age seven, Cameron Johnson sold tomatoes door-to-door from
his family’s farm. Pete Amico quit his job on his first day because
he didn’t feel like taking orders from his boss.Greg Herro built a
successful business selling diamonds made from the carbon extracted
from ashes. If any of these people remind you of yourself, you just
might have the kind of personality to take the small business world
by storm. In 8 Patterns of Highly Effective Entrepreneurs, Brent
Bowers reveals the eight patterns that highly successful
entrepreneurs share—and what we can learn from them. In covering
small business for decades at the Wall Street Journal and the New
York Times, Bowers has chronicled the rise and fall of hundreds of
start-ups. In this book, he draws on extensive interviews and
research, as well as on the experiences and expertise of business
consultants, venture capitalists, academia, and the entrepreneurs
themselves, to describe the key characteristics shared by dozens of
successful small-business owners and their companies. Among
them:
The ability to spot and seize opportunities An overwhelming urge
to be in charge coupled with a gift for leadership The flexibility
to come up with creative, out-of-the-box solutions to problems or
obstacles Incredible energy and tenacity in the pursuit of their
goals Unwavering faith in their business The ability to take smart
risks The ability to bounce back from setbacks and see failure as
just one step on the path to ultimate success
This book offers invaluable lessons and insights for anyone
thinking about starting a business or attempting a start-up a
second or third time.
