The Sassy Ladies Toolkit for Start-up Business: A Must Read

The new book, The Sassy Ladies Toolkit for Start-up Businesses, is must read for women entrepreneurs across the country interested in staring a business and doing it the right way.  This fun, informative and inspirational book takes the reader on a journey from dreaming about a business to making it a profitable reality.  The book is written in a conversational, down-to-earth style making the reader feel as if The Sassy Ladies are sitting with you, coaching and encouraging you every step of the way.

While the book is only 120 pages, it is jam packed with resources and links to websites, books and tools to support you in your entrepreneurial endeavor.  The Sassy Ladies have an online club that ties in with the book and provides more in-depth learning in six key areas.  These include marketing, sales and revenue, office environment, strategic planning, networking, time management, financial management and self development. 

Who are the Sassy Ladies?  Michelle Girasole, Wendy Hanson and Miriam Perry are wonderfully diverse and talented women who have been there and done that when it comes to small business.  Michelle’s technical expertise is sprinkled throughout the chapters and most helpful in Chapter 4, Working from Home in a section called Technology to the Rescue.  Wendy is an experienced business coach who takes complex business concepts like developing a business plan and pricing your products and breaks it down into bite size pieces for the reader. Miriam is a writer and communication specialist who offers her insights into how to effectively market your product or service to the world.  This talented trio will empower you to get in touch with your sassy side and inspire you to build the business of your dreams.

 

The biggest surprise in reading the book was how helpful it was for me, an entrepreneur with 15 years of experience in small business.  While the concepts of starting with the end vision in mind, profitability, sustainability and marketing were familiar to me, the easy to read, practical approach and end of the chapter exercises provided new ideas for taking my existing business to the next level.

 

If you are thinking about starting a business or want to take your current one to the next level, The Sassy Ladies Toolkit for Start-up Businesses is a great investment and  must read.
