Description
Whether you are a young or even older entrepreneur thinking about starting your own business,, you will find the Entrepreneur Extraordianire, an illustrated children's book, a great resource. Author J.M. Seymour provides the business fundamentals and the all steps for starting your own business. She shows you how to arrange the business resources, how to do the marketing research, how to determine the price point of your product and what to consider to ultimately make a profit.
Although the book uses a young entrepreneur, Emily, who wants to know how to start a kid business selling cookies, as the recipient of all this information, there are plenty of sidebars in the book that provide specific details for any young or beginning entrepreneur to get started in their endeavor.
The lively, almost comic-like illlustrations by Will Hildenbrandt, help keep the subject matter youthful and easy to understand. A real must for beginning entrepreneurs.
