There is a misconception that you can’t have a creative mind and a business mind. It’s one or the other. Doug Richard, an entrepreneur and two season “dragon” on the UK show Dragons’ Den<\/a>, aims to disprove this idea by providing everyone with the skills necessary to build a successful business. The book is full of Startup Stories<\/em> from creative individuals who have started their own businesses as well as Get Your Hands Dirty<\/em> suggestions intended to outline some of the tasks an entrepreneur must undertake to be successful. Another nice feature of the book is the Jargon Busters<\/em>; if you’re not a business person, don’t be afraid to check this book out. Richard explains all the business concepts in easy-to-understand language.<\/p>\n

If you’ve considered launching a creative business, check out this book and get started! Or, check out some of these other resources available at Andersen Library:<\/p>\n
