Rating:  Summary: Greatest Motivator Review: At the time I placed my order, I thought this book would list a number of home businesses that I could possibly start. While reading the first chapter, I found the book teaching persons considering becoming entrepreneurs (like myself) how to become what we think. To reevaluate the boundaries set by previous circumstances and move outside personal boxes. The author inspires readers to develop our minds and personal tools in order to be successfull in achieveing our goals. This book is well worth purchasing before embarking upon a home based business.
Rating:  Summary: What a waste. Review: How many times have you heard someone lament; "Oh someday I'll go into business for myself." Interest but no direction.This book gives you the direction and the motivation to make that "someday" today.A great read. I also highly recommend Direct from Dell" by Michael Dell, another inspiring book that will get you off your duff.
Rating:  Summary: Glittering Generalities: What a waste Review: I bought this book and was sorely disappointed. Nothing specific. Just lots of references to self analyzation to see what you think you want to do. You could do this yourself without a book.
Rating:  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. John Dunbar Sugar Land, TX
Rating:  Summary: An excellent book with a misleading cover. 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:  Summary: Book is the best on the market! Review: This book is the best I have found. Not only did I read it in one day, I utilitized its suggestions, and now I have a home-based business. I make $300. a WEEK in profits now. I started this a month ago today. Buy this book. You won't make millons, but you'll make as much as you want. I am expecting to make $600 in profit a WEEK this next week.
Rating:  Summary: Great Fun for Dreaming! Now if I'd just get off my duff! Review: This book was great for explaining practical ponts about making it in your business independently. The best feature of the book is the inspirational tone and content. The book lifts your spirits and encourages you. It is not a How To book, but rather a "You CAN!" book.
Rating:  Summary: Sound Advice for the Journey Review: While the advice on making money is not revolutionary, the book is well written and well organized. The title is a little misleading as the book does not describe a perfect business but instead seeks to offer some inspiration and some sound advice about creating a low overhead micro enterprise. If you do not have a lot of experience in business and are considering starting your own enterprise, the book is worth your time to read. It will help to inspire you and give you a useful roadmap on the journey to find a perfect business for you.
