In a previous article, I discussed 2 models for starting up a business: the funded venture vs. the bootstrap.
Since how to start a business is a topic that comes up frequently on discussions over at LinkedIn, I’d like to recommend two books that I think offer great advice:
- The Art of the Start: The Time-Tested, Battle-Hardened Guide for Anyone Starting Anything
by Guy Kawasaki and
- Growing a Business
By Paul Hawken.
Both books are classics in their genre, and offer great advice drawn from a wealth of experience.
