Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Practical and realistic advice for the small business person
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed this no-nonsense guide to running a small business. It is directed primarily at in-home businesses, but really has relevance to any small business person. The author shares both specific tools (marketing, financial, systems) and perhaps more importantly, psychological suggestions and considerations that will assist in building the right infrastrure for the entrepeneur. Perhaps the most valuable advice in this book is what to avoid and how to minimize any chance of failure. If your going to go into business for yourself, buy this book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An excellent book with a misleading cover.
Review: I would give this book a perfect score were it not for the fact that the title and cover material does not represent the book's contents entirely accurately, so some readers may feel misled. The book presents itself as a practical guide for home-based businesses when in fact it is more of a self-help success guide in the genre of "Think and Grow Rich". This may be exactly what most aspiring home-businesspeople need; still, I would imagine that readers seeking practical specifics may be disappointed.

As a self-help success guide, however, this is a fantastic book; one of the best I've ever read. It contains no original or revolutionary ideas. Instead, it distills the best ideas of the countless success manuals written over the past 100 years into a clear and logically consistent philosophy, and applies this philosophy to the subject of self-employment.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT! Let's get started!
Review: If you are interested in implementing this wonderful book by starting your own FANTASTIC (and fun!) home business, just drop a line at the above email address! I'd love to get you started!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A MUST FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO EARN MONEY FROM THEIR HOMES
Review: If you want to earn money from you home, you must read this book. I have read 10 books like this one in the last month. Besides irrevalent information, all I got was nonsense! This book, though, tells you everything you need to know and simplies it in easy to read format. I highly recommend this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Probably his best book, synthesizes a lot of material
Review: Some of his earlier books were a little light, but this one is excellent and I highly recommend your reading it. My copy is heavily underlined.

He covers a lot of territory and synthesizes this material down to essential points. The book is interesting to read.

You might want to also read "Getting Business to Come to You" by Paul Edwards, Sarah Edwards, Laura Clampitt Douglas, Laura Clampitt. This is an excellent book on starting up a small business. And, don't forget Don Lancasters "Incredible Secret Money Machine" regarding making money from technical crafts.

You should also read any of the E-Myth books by Michael E. Gerber - who takes a different view... that of creating a growing company with employees. Comparing these views will help you decide your course of action.

This book by LeBoeuf will remain in my library for periodically reviewed books.

Summary: The Perfect Business: How to Make a Million from Home With N
Review: Talk about motivation and getting yourself off your duff! This book has got it and more. If you're thinking along these lines of starting your own home-business..you have just arrived.. Good luck and pass along any good ideas you may have to help others.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A comprehensive book
Review: The Perfect Business by Michael Leboeuf is a very comprehensice book about starting a home-based business.

It did not give you specific example of what business to start, but rather, he gives tips on networking, marketing, self-discipline etc. If you are looking for a all-in-one type of business guidiance book, this may be the one.

However, some of the stuff Michael talks about are just stating the obvious, like sell something that customers want to buy and not what you like (isn't this obvious?). The chapter on buying office equipments, I think, is a waste of time.

All in all, I hope to see some specfic example, but were disappointed. But still, this is quite an inspirational book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What a waste.
Review: This book is full of "glittering generalities" but it is so etherial that it is useless. I wish I hadn't bought it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must reading for everubody who wants to make money at home
Review: This book is one of the best I have ever read--clear, consistent, convincing, motivating. If you really want to earn money from you home, you must read this book. I'm Russian and now I'm living in Moscow. We have here in Russia a great shortage of business books contaning efficient ideas how to build your own perfect business and win freedom. Many people here still don't beleive that communists never come back to power in this country.

When two months ago my good friend in Munich, Germany, losts his job as an editor in publishing house I recommended him this book of Michael LeBoeuf. And now my German friend beginns to make his freelance career.

I'm shopping books from Amazon.com and although it is rather expensive for me but it pays! I have read about 12 or so books like this one in the last year. I have read this book twice and--repeat--this one of the best! Actually, the Perfect Business!
