Bullied in Business: The Grassroots Movement Transforming How We Treat Small-Business Owners

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.


You've heard the success stories, but not the 2 a.m. panic pings, the customer pile-ons, or the staff threats of "See you at Fair Work." Bullied in Business rips the cover off the quiet crisis playing out behind every independent counter and offers a way forward-one filled with empathy, practical tactics, and cultural change.

Drawing on new research from Australia, the UK, and the United States, author Stuart Redgate reveals:

  • The hidden toll of 24/7 reachability and why it's driving proprietors toward burnout and, too often, the brink of despair.
  • Digital bullying in the review age-how a single one-star blast can wipe out a month of profit, and what owners and communities can do to fight back.
  • Staff "lawfare" and entitlement culture: real-world scripts for fair boundaries when the threat of legal action hovers over every roster change.
  • Cash-flow coercion-why multi-channel chasers feel like harassment, and proven charters that restore dignity on both sides of an invoice.
  • Respect-first playbooks for customers, employees, suppliers, and even landlords-because small-business survival is a team sport.

This is not another hustle manifesto telling owners to work harder. It's an uplifting, eye-opening guide that lets entrepreneurs breathe-while challenging shoppers, staff, and policymakers to share the load and rewrite the rules.

Whether you're a café regular who never knew a late review could threaten payroll, an employee curious about fair expectations, or an exhausted owner desperate to feel seen, Bullied in Business will change how you think, shop, and show up in your community.

Buy now to join the grassroots movement that's replacing "the customer is always right" with "respect is everyone's business."
