People starting out in business tend to seek step-by-step formulas or rules, but in reality there are no magic bullets. Rather, says veteran company-builder Norm Brodsky, there's a mentality that helps street-smart entrepreneurs solve problems and pursue opportunities as they arise. Brodsky shares his hard-earned wisdom every month in Inc. magazine, in the hugely popular "Street Smarts" column he cowrites with Bo Burlingham. Now they've adapted their best advice into a comprehensive guide for anyone running a small business.

This book must be read after you’ve started your business. It’s like the real work environment MBA. Don’t read it all in one sitting. Take your time and enjoy it. For me as a veteran entrepreneur, it brought many aha moments

I've read many business books, and this is simply one of the best. It's direct, thorough, and directly applicable to everyday business. The lessons extend beyond the entrepreneurial startup phase. They're disciplines. Stop reading this; the book is better.
