The Entrepreneur Roller Coaster: Why Now Is the Time to #join the Ride
About This Book:
66 PERCENT OF SMALL BUSINESSES FAIL—AND IT’S NOT FOR THE REASONS YOU THINK*.
This book is designed for those new (or early stage) to entrepreneurship or those who have watched from afar and have wanted/wished to join in, but the fear of the unknown has kept them stupefied and in paralysis.
This book will detail the worst (which is not so scary after all) and the best (which is absolutely thrilling) of being in business for yourself and give you the essential skills to be successful (preventing the 66% death rate).
The focus of the book is on the emotional journey one takes when they step onto the wild ride of entrepreneurship. It’s meant to warn (forthcoming fears, doubts and self-defeating conditioning of past/upbringing), inoculate (from the naysayers, dream stealers and pains of rejection and failure) and guide them (building those undeveloped skills of independence, self-motivation and self-accountability) safely past the landmines that blow up (cause failure) of 66% of all new businesses.
About the Author:
Darren is just like you. He started out afraid, nervous, and without a clue on what to do or what to expect as an entrepreneur. He had no experience, training, or guidance. He did it mostly wrong, which is how he figured out how to do it right. His life has been a living laboratory of trial, error, failure, and success. Darren wrote this book to help save you lots of unnecessary pain and to significantly accelerate your success–by helping you do it right the first time!
Through his first ”real” business, Darren was earning a six-figure annual income at age nineteen. Five years later, he was a self-made millionaire, and by twenty-seven, he had a business generating over $50 million in revenue.
For the past two decades, Darren has been a business leader in the success and human achievement industry. Today he is the visionary force behind SUCCESS magazine as its Publisher, giving him unique and unprecedented access to interview, study, and draw out the insights of the most successful achievers on the planet, including people like Richard Branson, Martha Stewart, Steve Jobs, Warren Buffett, Donald Trump, Anne Sweeney, Howard Schultz, Jeff Bezos, and many, many more. This has allowed him to uncover their unique secrets to success, which he now shares to empower entrepreneurs around the world.
Darren also mentors many of today’s high-performing CEOs, advises large corporations, and sits on the board of several companies and nonprofit organizations. He is a New York Times best-selling author, media contributor, and highly sought-after keynote speaker.
