"funny..." "witty..." "Actually useful..."
"definitely not politically correct..."
"Not boring like other business books..."
"Straight and to the point..." "Hard hitting..."
"No nonsense..." "Real..."
These are the words used to describe Change or Go Broke by fellow business owners and execs. This is not your typical business book. This is the right book for small business during these challenging times.
Frustrated with 'How to' business books that don't work in the real world? Still searching for 'secrets' and being led to believe that you are not enlightened enough to 'get it'? Tired of feeling alone?
I wrote Change or Go Broke to cut through the hype and fads and bring a reality check about running a small business. I share the lessons I have learned the hard way in my twenty five plus years as an executive, businessman, and business consultant. I blast some of the commonly accepted platitudes and principles pertaining to entrepreneurship, sales, employees, finance, and leadership. Besides taking on some of the "sacred cows" of small business, you also get real world strategies and ideas for your business. Ideas that can actually work.
Chances are your business is built around the rules that were appropriate for 2005. The rules have changed, have you?
I am so confident you will enjoy my book that it comes with a 100% money back guarantee when purchased from this website. There is one caveat; there is no money back guarantee if you want to return the book because it hurt your feelings. Fair warning....
Kevin Hanville
Praise for Change or Go Broke from real business owners just like you…
“This book is a must have for anyone who owns a small business (you will see that you are not alone) or for anyone who is considering starting one (you will get a glimpse of your future life). Kevin Hanville paints a pragmatic picture of small business ownership based upon years of real world experience. This is a refreshing change from the ivory tower of idealistic relationships and attitudes you see in so many of today's business books.”
-- John Riordan, President, Harvest Technology Group
"I really enjoyed 'Change or Go Broke' as a person who works in a small business but also found ways to apply it's straight talk to my everyday life. Hanville's book seemed very in line with the 'just in time production' model innovated by Japanese motor companies that allowed them to adapt to changing market conditions and succeed while American automakers, steadfast in their big business, proto-Fordist model, missed many opportunites. This book is really funny and very realistic in that it dispells the myths that thinking good thoughts will automatically bring in customers and that being a successful small business person means that the business will run itself and you will not have to still work hard. I also loved all his Homer Simpson metaphors! Thank you!"
-- Marina Hoag, Subterranean Books
“I wish I had read this before starting my business.”
-- James Sanford, President, e-tech Software
"Business books tend to be dry reading. Even the title "business book" sounds dry! This one is the complete opposite. I laughed out loud - when was the last time a business book made you do that? Using real world examples, and great quotes at the beginning of each chapter, Kevin shows what a lot of hard work will do. He does not try to sell you a system. He admits that his methods don't work for everyone. His honesty and straight talk was refreshing and that is what I appreciated the most. He reintroduces the idea of common sense to the small business in an easy to read manner."
-- Stephanie Kilgore, Changing Hands Bookstore
“Real world, hard hitting business wisdom that works in the everyday realities of small business.”
-- Curt Bennett, President, Custom Mobility Van & Lift Sales
“Blunt. No holds barred. In your face, vintage Kevin! All I can say is “buy this book or go broke”.
-- Michael Leahy, Author of Porn @ Work, and Porn Nation
“Michael Gerber in the E-Myth teaches you how to work "on" your business, Kevin Hanville in Change or Go Broke teaches you how to run a business. Without knowing how to run a business first, it's impossible to work on the business!”
-- Kevin Copeland, President, JustTrashit
"Kevin gives it to you straight. When he gives you the information you need, you get it loud and clear. Hard decisions for hard times, but decisions that get results."
-- Tim Wilkerson, President, Tim Wilkerson
