Before You Launch Your Business: How to decide if being an Entrepreneur is for you

"Before You Launch Your Business" offers entrepreneurial wisdom to aspiring business owners and those at a career crossroads, helping them make an informed decision about entering the world of business and being self-employed.

The eBook attempts to provide valuable insight into how to come up with a business idea that is passion and purpose based, what the differences are between working for somebody else and being self-employed, what mindset, traits, lifestyle and other necessary things one should keep in mind and prepare for, if one is considering going down this route. There is even an entrepreneurial quiz to help you determine if you have what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur and to recognize what may need further work and planning.

Now if you have read business books on this subject you may have read about how most talk about having a marketing and a business plan, but not many address the need for having a personal plan. In our experience, one cannot be successful professionally, if their personal and financial life aren't aligned with what they are about to undertake. Starting and being in business successfully requires more than just numbers and figures, it requires a lot of your personal life components such as the state of your finances, whether your family is on board with you or not, what you want out of your own life and so on to come together as well. Is your personal life ready to handle this career you’re about to undertake? This eBook provides you with all the information you need to have in place.
Another area where the author takes a realistic view of things is by clarifying that passion albeit an important ingredient in being successful is not enough, one needs more than that. The book attempts to bring forth some crucial things that you must do ahead of time, if you want to do this well, thereby saving you time, costly mistakes and headache that one would go through if they were to jump in unprepared.

One can consider this ebook as a first step before they get into the mechanicals of setting up a business.

It is written in a down to earth, practical manner making it easy to understand. For anyone who is unemployed, stuck in a wrong profession or interested in starting a business for any other reason, this book is a must read.
