BYOB is a professional's passport to entrepreneurship .
Any Professional with experience can build a successful business in their own area of expertise. Why continue in a career that seems to be going nowhere? Why let bosses decide your earnings, career growth and peace of mind. You can take back control of your Life, Earnings, and Time. This is the promise of BYOB - Be Your Own Boss, a book on entrepreneurship.
The most challenging phase of a professional's career comes 10 or 15 years into it. The professional in probably in a mid-management position facing both office stress as well as financial pressures of mortgages and loans. This worry of job loss, and the fear of obsolescence, make mid-career stressful. No wonder heart attacks, strokes, and most lifestyle ailments like diabetes and hypertension manifest at this age.
To top it all, the midcareer professional sees twenty-somethings, jumping into entrepreneurship, fresh out of college. The buzz around these startup wonders, creating Unicorns, wooed by global VCs, rubs salt into the already wounded ego of our experienced professional. They begin to wonder – 'have I missed the bus'?
The answer is 'No'. Research shows that entrepreneurship has a better chance to succeed if the entrepreneur has experience. Maturity and discipline that comes with age, are valuable ingredients for a successful business.
In this book, Venugopal explains, in a conversational style, step by step, with stories and anecdotes, the process of starting and building a successful business. BYOB is a mid-career professional’s passport to a life as an entrepreneur.
