Caveman Entrepreneurship

By Ray Steelman

This book is a hands-on guide for the budding entrepreneur. This is the first edition which was written over several years as a directional guide for their children.

During the past thirty years, Sharon and Ray Steelman have started and run six successful businesses. Their most recent accomplishment is Bama Jammer TM Promotions. Beginning from scratch, with no money, no equipment and no office, in seven years they transitioned a modest business into a multi-million dollar advertising specialty company. After trial and error, long hours and lots of sweat equity, the pieces finally began to fit. This is an ongoing project which is a log book of the Steelmans experiences in business and life. Writing began in 2003 and continues today.

For those contemplating going into business for themselves, this book is a must. Even for those without the entrepreneurial spirit, this book is inspirational, interesting and fun to read.

It is amazing enough to build six successful businesses, but to do so completely debt-free is even more amazing. By applying Biblical principles, frugal business practices and good work ethics, Sharon and Ray have proven that anyone can realize the “American Dream!”

Some of the Chapters titles include: Seat of your pants marketing; Valuable advice from stupid people; Practice does not make perfect; Let’s plant a money tree; Thank God I was bad at math; Strategies that make a preacher cuss; and Lots of Flies Follow a Garbage Truck.

If it has to do with business, the Steelmans have been there and done that. No money.. no sweat! Learn how to build a business from scratch even without a dime in your pocket.
