“Advice from the SmallBizLady: Melinda Emerson
I recently read Melinda Emerson's new book, then went back for a second read: Become Your Own Boss in 12 Months: A Month-by-Month Guide to a Business that Works.
Full disclosure: I'm a big fan of Melinda's work via her #SmallBizChat (a weekly real-time chat on Twitter) program and have heard her share a lot of her advice "from the trenches" so I'm a bit biased because I've seen and heard her help people, including myself. Melinda Emerson's book gives useful and smart tips any biz owner can benefit from reading.”

“Best Advice for Starting a Business: Ask the Experts!
Over the past several decades I have started many businesses; some very successful, a couple that failed, and many in between. With each start-up I gained experience that enhanced the likelihood of success on the next venture.
I have often thought if only I could have secured good advice that would have helped me along the way (learning by “OPE”), it would have saved a lot of time, money and misery. Well, it’s a little late for me, but if you are thinking of starting a business, as so many people are in the present economy, it may not be too late for you.”
