Joel Houston 
Surviving a Startup [EPUB ebook] 

Survive. That’s what the owners of startups and small businesses must do-or perhaps starve. Singlehandedly (often) and courageously (always), they embrace immense personal and financial risk to start new ventures. As they attempt to transform a dream into a reality, the stakes are extremely high for them and their employees.

After publishing his first survival book (Surviving Babies and Toddlers), author Joel Houston presents an in-the-trenches, practical, and humorous memoir designed to help business startup owners like him. Avoiding the standard books on business theory, he focuses on the core business survival tactics that he learned as a successful owner of a startup warehouse.

In this witty, gritty book, readers will learn about:

·       Embracing risk with wisdom

·       Cultivating authentic customer relations

·       Developing a positive business culture

·       Supporting all-important operations

·       Simple approaches to marketing

·       Sustaining a healthy work-life balance

·       And . . . the ‘cogs’ in the global supply chain that enable the world to survive (literally)

Surviving a Startup is primarily written to the millions of overlooked small business owners who run unglamorous but essential companies. Joel has a heart for the people who operate trucking and construction firms, restaurants, bookstores, warehouses (like Joel’s), small markets, and for many other hardworking entrepreneurs who keep the global economy running.
